Thank you Swifties.

You, and all who fought in Vietnam have been vindicated.

It made me ill when Kerry did that ludicrious hand salute and said, Reporting for Duty. The real heros are the ones who didn't backstab their country and fellow Vietnam vets. John O'Neill is sterling and Kerry pales in comparison. The Dems should give him up, he's used goods.

I’m convinced that band of 250 saved the presidency from the movement that fought them in Vietnam. You know who you are. Thank you!

The Swifties once again answered their country's call to duty.

I agree.

I think if it weren't for the Swifties, we would indeed have President Kerry -- shudder!

"The Vietnam Veterans deserve the same place of honor and gratitude as the doughboys and the flyboys. This is the new national consensus. We have the Swift Boat Veterans For Truth to thank for this new national unity, long over due."

Amen! I am so grateful to John O'neill and all the vets who worked so hard to get the TRUTH out and expose the true Kerry (and old media)...Still undermining our troops and our mission after all these years.

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.

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

Each and every Swifty deserves our utmost thanks!

The amount of damage and grave harm they helped save this country from is beyond calculation. It might have taken us 20 years to recover from 4 years of Flipper and Friends.

John Kerry...a man who claims to be a hero in a war that he claims to be a mistake.

Thank you swifties.

A terrible wrong has been righted as much as is possible. Who knew John sKerry would have a big ugly hand in that. I'd thank him if it didn't stick in my throat.

I shudder to think of what would have happened if not for the SwiftVets. We truly dodged a bullet 11-2 and we owe them our deepest gratitude.
