Thank you Swifties - you did what hundreds of us wanted to do and didn't - God Bless You and keep You safe till the next time.

Wounds from war heal but the scars are visible forever. Mental scars are not visible and most never heal. Kerry wounded several generations with his lies. Political lies are easily covered up but lies that affect people are remembered. I did not kill babies.

I WILL NOT FORGET!!!

As important, the self-image of many reporters was endangered. Their myths of our pervasive evils in defending Vietnamese freedom, and of their valiant memories of mounting school libraries' ramparts, could not take the incongruence of exposure.

LOL!!

God bless Bruce Kesler, John O'Neill and the Swiftees, Scott Swett, Jerry Corsi and the other patriots who worked together to bypass old media to get the word out about John Kerry. But for these people, we very well may have seen a Kerry presidency in '5.

Scott Swett ping.

Awesome post and story. These Vietnam Veterans represent the best that America can offer. For more reasons than beating John Kerry.

I have two Christmas wishes: One is that the troops who are serving today know that we are grateful for them, and two- that the Vietnam Vets know this election was as much about each one of them as it was about John Kerry. We never got to show our appreciate and love for the Vietnam Vets before, we did back in Nov of 2004.

Thank you Swifties for you have given us so much.

thanks to the Vietnam vets...again, for saving us from Kerry.

Bruce Kesler will be our guest on The Inquisition, webcast at RighTalk.com this afternoon at 2pm Eastern. We'll cover Bruce's work during the recent campaign, as well as discussing how and why he founded Vietnam Veterans for a Just Peace as a counter to the VVAW in 1971.

I never felt more proud to have had the opportunity to give...How true!
The Swift Boat Veterans gave me the hope that TRUTH would win out. The RNC was way too political to tackle Kerry's lies, deception and arrogance.
I too would like to see the "rest of the Story"...the meetings with the Cong in Paris, the spin of lies by Cronkite, the funding of the antiwar movement by commies, Kerry's dishonorable discharge...The betraying of America by Liberals from the 60's to 2004.

It is about time, but it's going to take a lot to make up for the twenty-five years of smearing Vietnam Vets, and what they had to live with.

We’ll quietly slide back into the woodwork – until needed again. It would be nice to see Hanoi John held accountable for his sedition and treason, but others can handle that end.
