UPDATE: THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS TODAY CONFIRMED THE EXCLUSIVE BROKEN BY CRUSHKERRY.COM 3 WEEKS AGO. TODAY THEY CONFIRMED THE EXISTENCE OF THE "BROWN BOOK" DOSSIERS COMPILED BY DEMOCRATS CONTAINING DAMAGING PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE SWIFT BOAT VETS IN ORDER TO SMEAR THEM. TODAY'S ARTICLE ALSO DEALS WITH THEIR RELEASING THE PSYCHIATRIC AND CRIMINAL RECORDS OF ONE SWIFT BOAT VET, AS WELL AS HIS SUICIDE ATTEMPT. THIS DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR WAS PREDICTED BY US WEEK AGO IN THE ARTICLE BELOW WHICH WE ARE RE-POSTING FOR REFERENCE.
(PRIOR)UPDATE: The Prowler says the Kerry campaign says the media will not push the Swifties story because they want Kerry to win.
(PRIOR) UPDATE: It’s starting. We guess David Brock over at Media Matters for America received a “Brown Book.” He attempts a character hit on Jerome Corsi, one of the authors of Unfit for Command.
The Democrat National Committee has prepared a full-scale assault against the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth to draw their character and veracity into question, according to one anonymous source inside the DNC. The campaign of character assassination is scheduled to coincide with the release of the book Unfit for Command which reveals inconvenient facts for the Kerry campaign.
“We have prepared what we call ‘Brown Books’ that contain damaging military records, personal credit histories, medical histories, psychiatric histories, divorce records, you name it,” our source told us. "We've got the goods on the Veterans who oppose Kerry."
The “Brown Books” are so called because of their distinctive plain brown covers, which contain no words. Some books have already been delivered to Kerry-friendly reporters. Others are on their way, our source told us. When asked if we could have a copy, our source declined, saying there is a limited number of “Brown Books” and they have been carefully inventoried to control in whose hands the books ended up.
Ultimately the “Brown Books” will end up in the hands of pro-Kerry news agencies and reporters. According to our source, who demanded to remain anonymous for fear of retribution, The New York Times is already on the hook to run a negative series on the Vets, as is the Boston Globe, which is owned by the Times. (Editor’s Note: The Globe has already been caught attempting to attack the veracity of George Elliott, Kerry’s commanding officer in Vietnam.)
In addition, the DNC has deployed a six member team from their press shop whose sole responsibility will be to spin and counter-spin stories about the members of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth with pro-Kerry media entities, like the Times.
When asked if this was just another example of John Kerry slandering Vietnam Vets – like he did in 1971 as a member of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War – our source snapped, “No! This is warfare. The only way we’re going to get out of this is to force everyone to question their motives and credibility.”
“If they want to spread rumors and stories about John Kerry, we’ll spread rumors and stories about them. And some of the things they did in Vietnam were a lot worse than what they say John Kerry did,” our source concluded ominously.
Stay tuned. We will keep you posted as this nasty story develops.
The article that I read about the connection was written by a Democrat, who was working for the DNC at the time. He said that the only connection was that the DNC had hired Kerry to speak to young people about the importance of voting and that Kerry had done so. The writer saw nothing wrong with that, but that's typical Democrat thinking. Teddy and his buddies had created a monster and it was getting a little out of control. My guess is that the DNC told Kerry to get out of the VVAW, but he dragged his feet a little too long, trying to milk every drop of publicity out of the group.
Believe me, the Clintons have not appropriated the Kerry campaign. They want JFK to lose and open the doors for Queen Hillary in 2008. However, the Democratic dirty tricks squad is available to the Kerry camp, led by Terry Lenzer, the Harvard Law grad-turned-Washington P.I. who's been at the forefront of every DNC dirt-digging and smear campaign over the past 15 years. I'm sure Lenzer led the charge in preparing the "Brown Book" against the Swifties...
Bump for daytime viewing
You're right. I only hope the 'sheeple' get that before Election Day. He had it in his mind back then that he was going to be president someday. Every democrat who runs now is a slimeball, IMHO.
The Swifties are taking the heat which is great. They are once again standing up to defend their country. They're warriors. It's a complete distraction for the Kerry campaign and keeps them off message. It keeps it in the public eye. Kerry can't win this fight,.. even if he scores points, he loses.
Thanks for the link. Very interesting read. I wonder what has happened with her oldest son. Don't hear much from him. I bet he is voting Republican and is a supporter of Bush. I just can't understand how she can go from John Heinz to John Kerry.
