I'm surprised that the Atlanta-Urinal-Constipation gave this any ink... 5 Legislative Days Left Until The AWB Expires

When presidential candidate John Kerry virtually ignores 20 years in the U.S. Senate to make four months in Vietnam the centerpiece of his campaign, the men who served with him have a right to a fair hearing.
The Kerry campaign and much of the mainstream media have been dismissive of the swift-boat veterans who oppose his candidacy. Even before exploring the substance of their charges, the group is dismissed as right-wing financed Bush puppets.
The truth is, however, that while swift-boat veterans opposing Kerry undoubtedly have a political agenda -- they think him "Unfit for Command" of the armed forces, the title of a book published last week -- their opposition would have coalesced regardless.
In most respects, the 250 men who are part of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth (www.swiftvets.com), and the dozen former crew members of Kerry's boat who support him, are the only Americans positioned to comment authoritatively on his actions during those four months.
Houston lawyer John O'Neill, one of the authors of the book, followed Kerry as commander of the swift boat PCF 94. Others were in Kerry's chain of command, in administrative positions or on other swift boats.

OK, maybe they are moving in the right direction.
Living in ATL, I don't read that rag. The only thing it's good for is classifieds.
I think if I see another pro-McKinney piece I'll puke.
BTW, how could it be published on 8/15 if it is only 8/13?
Perhaps it's the paper version that is published on 8/15. Many news papers and Magazines do that
