Sounds like a little 'arm twisting' going on. A STRONG arm. heh!
I don't like this. Smells funny.

Can you tell me how you know that?
Must be nice. East Texas is having a bit of its own incredible October. On track for breaking a record of some type for the hottest Oct ever. Dancing around 90 degrees for most of this month. I just thought I would cut my elec cooling bill in half. Not this month.

NavyChief says...
The information I posted about a former SECNAV and Kerry's Discharge was pulled at my request because I jumped the gun.
You couldn't believe the powerplay behind the scenes at this moment regarding this story.
You can call me many things (and probably will) -- I don't care.
This isn't my call anymore on how/where/when/why this story will come out.
I've been told/asked/cajoled whatever you wish to call it -- to stand down.
So, this Chief will STAND DOWN (for now).
That's all I have to say on the matter. If you want me to personally apologize to everyone -- so be it.

>>>something like this needs more advance planning with all the ducks neatly lined up in a snappy military formation row...
More advanced planning? The Vets have been trying to get the information to the public for YEARS!
The Swifties were the first to successfully make the most noise.
And they went this far with the noise because they were still fighting a war. To keep Kerry from being elected. To protect us!
The MSMs and NEA are the ones that have been keeping this from the public for "YEARS".
"Live from the Hurtgen Forest.. it's Saturday Night Live."
Nobody is forgetting the VN vets; did it ever occur to you that this might have done you harm? Who is this guy?
Have you seen anybody from the Swift Vets posting or saying this stuff?
BTTT!!!!
Because Navy Chief has been researching Kerry quite heavily and has been the main source for a lot of stories concerning Kerry and his discharge. He is the one who gave the heads up when the NY Sun was going to break the story on Kerry's discharge before as well as the story about the Hanoi connections and Kerry. He's an insider with the Swiftees and has worked hard and any time he says something is up, it has come to pass.
I have been asked by the highest authorities (No -- I will not expound) to not hold this Rally.NC is honorable and following directions he believes are worthy...That's enough for me, I will go with that and trust him.
Although our actions and intent has been nothing but honorable, this effort will not serve our purposes.
My sincerest apologies for this but I must ask that we stand down...
I certainly hope the "highest authorities" know what they are doing and I don't like this anymore than anyone else but I must ask you to stand down.
We can however, return to our previous effort in getting the truth to media outlets, Congress, and other influencial organizations.
This was a great idea and I'm very disappointed -- I hope you will forgive me for this. I'm assured that all will be clear in time (yeah right).

In the mean time...

Can someone point to the thread(s) in question.
I have no idea what this "October surprise" being discussed is all about.
Great. Really helps the Swift Boat Vets' credibility...
Agreed. Adding to this comment is the fact that The Swiftboat Veterans for Truth have issued no email or any other communication to this effect.
I don't think they did, either, Howlin.
Roger that.
Here's one, but there are others:

Mod Note::Deleted : Please note, the letter referred to has not been authenticated as of yet.
The unspecified letter seems to be the bone of contention.
I think the effort just had too many potential and rel snakes to deal with, and the cost was just too high.
Kerry's firewall has been 20 years in the making, and as people peeled back one layer of it, another emerged.
The legal implications were likely the layer that stopped them cold.
My sense is that the heart was there, but the legal expertise to navigate the firewall was not.
I am disappointed, but far from angry about this.
>>>Right now there is massive voter fraud taking place right here in Broward County Florida. I know, I see it.
Sorry mac. The fraud isn't JUST in Broward County FL. Liz and hoosiermama have been keeping bump lists of the NATIONWIDE fraud.
From the information they have been compiling, I don't think Clinton and others have been 'elected'.
What really sucks is we know there are 'bad apples' planted in higher sources. WE DON'T know if information is being blocked due to genuine efforts and investigations or to hide information.
When we send intel up, we don't get intel down. That is just how it works.
So are we taking a high road and trusting for an outcome? Or are we being obediant and shutting up hoping for the best?
