John O'Neill and ALL the Swiftees are truly men of honor.
I think you're over-thinking the war crimes issue. I believe that hearing Kerry admitting to war crimes would effect most voters on a gut level. Talk about "at all levels of command" just doesn't have the same tangible impact. I mean, lets say Kerry was just using his admission to lie about war crimes. Fine, then that will do just as much damage as any other accusation he made. But a significant percentage of people will say "I cannot vote for a war criminal, end of story" regardless of the spin and justification by the Democrats. It's check mate - he's either a liar or a war criminal, take your pick.
O'Neill may be waving the book on inside baseball shows, but the people watching those shows aren't the ones who need to be reached. It's the ones who don't watch the talking heads shows (which is most people) who need to see Kerry's treason. And its pretty hard to focus in on the upside down American flag when O'Neill is waving it around. It needs a close up in ads across the country.
Sean has talked about having the video, he says he's seen it. I think there is some copyright permissions issues. But this is our country and our future. I think Sean, and most certainly the SBVFT (who will dissolve as an entity after Nov. 2nd) can afford a lawsuit to save the Union.
I think the SBVFT are going a good job, but they could do better. It seems to me like they're holding their fire.
You tell me which is more effective, abstract commercials about medals as symbols, or ads with a tangible admission to war crimes from the man who wants to be president?
Here's the audio clip of Kerry "confessing" to atrocities. Knock yourself out...

Thanks for posting the times. I am fortunate to live in an area where it's going to be broadcast.
I see that some things never change!
In March 1970, while operating in Operation Seafloat, we had a very slow moving American tug, escorted by a South Vietnamese swift boat. It was ambushed by the Viet Cong from heavy bunkers on the river bank. The South Vietnamese swift boat could have easily avoided the ambush. Instead, it turned and beached and assaulted the bunkers. This was the single most heroic act that I have witnessed during almost three years in Vietnam and it was done by South Vietnamese risking their lives to save American lives. This is not an isolated example.
Those that want to call the War on Terror equivalent to Vietnam need to read this paragraph over and over until it sinks in. This is one parallel I will accept because it is quite simply a fact born out by history:
- Free people will fight to retain their freedom - all they need is the tools,
- Oppressed people need help to fight, and a vision of the freedom the waits for them. Once free, and confident in their freedom, they will assume the mantle of responsibility for it gladly.
How much more perverse, how much more morbid can you get than to use the dead for purposes they never intended. Can't they allow them to rest with their sacrifice stand-ing alone as mute testimony to their love of America?
Amen and Amen and Amen
Once again, one of America's Best and Brightest making Annapolis proud.
Thanks again to John O'Neill!
On Monday, everybody who has a computer is going to live in an area where Stolen Honor is broadcast...

Thank you for publishing it. Another plus for the new media.
Kerry doesn't even tell the same story today that he, himself, told yesterday.
