My state has a veterans auto plate that can be customized to branch of service and campaign. I'm seriously considering getting one next time my registration is due.

In a lot of states you can do it right on-line... right now. In NY and NC (where we currently live) the fee is $20. I have a "Cobra 64" plate on my 1964 289 FIA Shelby Cobra.

Each and every Swifty deserves our utmost thanks!

That's an understatement in our house. They saved the Republic from someone who should have been tried, convicted, and shot for treason. And... I would have had no problem in being selected for the squad. Now where's my .308? ....

"Celebrate November 2, 2004 -- May it always be known as Vietnam Veterans Victory Day!"

Well put!

I have a Ohio Vietnam plate. You will like yours if you get it.

Vindication is good, but we must continue to oppose the forces of surrender, the weaklings who want to sell us out to the forces of evil.

Lets keep fighting.

In only post election distress syndrome were fatal!!

I agree. But I think all of this rhetoric is a bunch of cr@p. Four years ago, there were a dozen or so lefty Hollywood celebs. swearing they'd exit the USA. Well, they are still breathing American oxygen... Right? Who has left the USA due to W's election in 2002? I'm waithing for the 100k jerks to emigrate to Canada. And good riddance to the disloyal bastards who hate this Republic.

NO! I can't stress that enough. That would imply his consent, and President Bush had absolutely nothing to do with them and what they did. Many of the Swift Boat Veterans were not Republican. That is NOT why they went after Kerry!

Good article here. Thanks FairOpinion.

I'll third that sentiment. It'd be neat if the Swifties knew about FR; and understand our apprefciation for them. I've sent many e-mails thanking them for saving the Republic from Traitor Kerry.

Hate to rain on the parade. But I have a different take. It's not over. The battle may be won but it is not the time to rest. Kerry is defeated but he got more votes than any Democrat in history. How was this so? How did this person who so betrayed his fellow soldiers ever make it to the national arena in the first place? Kerry is but a symptom of a larger disease.

The national press did everything to elect Kerry. They are still the filter for most of America. Thanks to Buckhead, and the forum Jim Robinson provides, CBS's attempt to blatantly and fraudulently tilt the election was exposed. But no national media asked Kerry any questions at all. No one asked for the record about the form 180. There is no follow up on his discharge. There is no follow up on his dealings with the Chinese. There is no follow up about his post war involvement with Vietnam contracts (The Haiphong harbor rebuilding) There is no questions about his chairing the committee or co-chairing the committee on POW/MIA. These need to be answered to expose the disease which is the liberal domination of mass media. Otherwise the fraud goes unchallenged and attributed to a vast right wing smear machine.
What happened to the CBS investigation? What happened to questioning the timing and coordination between the 527 groups, the networks, and the Kerry campaign. What happened to Sandy Berger? What happened to the CIA leaks? Why did all this suddenly seem irrelevant now that the election is over?
Nothing is further from the truth. Now is the time to relentlessly pursue these liberals. They caused the deaths of thousands. Either passively or actively. The latest forbidden saying is to question a liberal's patriotism. I do. When you champion everyone else before your own country. You are not a patriot. When you lie, cheat, and try to steal the election, you are not a patriot. When you leak information harmful to the country in an effort to sway an election, you are not a patriot. When you filter the news so only the negative shows. You are definitely working against the best interests of your country.
The Swifties did much. But they still have the bully pulpit and this dragon isn't dead yet.
Sorry for the rant. All I see is the danger ahead.

No I think he should recognize them as being truthful patriots. Not for thier support.

He can't. They're a 527 organization. He can't recognize them in any way.

Agree. The Swifties did a fantastic job.

But, there are still shills on the MSM saying that the "lies and distortions" of the Swifties have been shown. That's a lie as far as I know. NOTHING has been disproved.

Kerry needs to be shown for the traitorous scum that he is - and has continued to be since his days in uniform. I want all the information out there and let him suffer the consequences of the despicable actions he caused.

"You can't live a normal life when you're being spit on, when you have bags of feces thrown at you, or when some idiot is dumping red paint on you or calling you a baby killer."

Yes you can, and do it well. That one nasty liberal attitude is what made many of us conservatives. I wouldn't trade my experience in Viet Nam or when I came 'home' for anything. It is what made me the man, husband and father I am today.

Thanks Libs, you created a conservative monster.

"Post Election Stress Trauma"

Has everyone had a chance to notice the acronym at work here?
