New Swift Boat book sets the record straight
World Net Daily ^ | 1-1-08 | Jerome Corsi

Posted on 02/01/2008 10:47:50 AM PST by Bob J

Since losing the 2004 presidential election, John Kerry and his supporters have continued to claim "Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak out against John Kerry" and the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth have been "discredited" for spreading a pack of lies about Kerry's military service in Vietnam and his subsequent leadership in the anti-war movement....

John Kerry is the most despicable person in American history. At least Benedict Arnold served over two months service to this country. Kerry, show us your Dishonorable Discharge!!

Contrary to Kerry's spin, the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth had no contact or advice from a White House that publicly expressed a desire the anti-Kerry campaign being waged by the Vietnam vets would stop.

One of the most gloomy aspects of getting the truth out (i.e., that "swift boating" means getting the truth out) is when the host of the top-rated all-night talk show, George Noory, promotes the Kerry lies. It's likely that most in the millions who tune in are apolitical and "know" little beyond Noory and MSM employees' voluble and tedious feeeeeeeeeeeeeelings.

The author of the posted article, Dr. Corsi, is a regular guest on Noory's show. Dr. Corsi told Noory that he voted for G.W. twice but now has a bit of remorse.

Noory absolutely despises the President and associates and quickly responded to Dr. Corsi's remarks with predicable I-hate-Bush Noory knee-jerk, "Yeah, it was those swift boat lies, right?"

Dr. Corsi told Mr. Noory in no uncertain terms that NO! "the Swift Boat vets called Kerry on his decades of lies" which he (Dr. Corsi) recognized as lies at the time Kerry was spewing them.

It went completely over Noory's head. He has not a clue. It's that BDS thing I guess.

Thanks for the ping, and for getting the truth out again.

You're welcome. It's going to take some pounding away at this to counter the sloganeering by the leftists.

Hi, ho, Bob.....I've had my copy of "Setting the Record Straight" for well over a week, but what with the election having me krazyglued to FR and neglecting all hausfrau duties for about a fortnight, it's been sitting forlornly on the nightstand.

(....what's a fortnight?.....hmmmmm)

Hope to do my IRS this weekend and start the book Monday.

I guarandamntee ya!

That’s why this stuff has to be countered. Left unopposed, the leftists will have 80% of the public convinced that “swiftboating” is a synonym for McCarthyism in about two more years.

See my post #10. Obviously I should have put “dishonorable” in quotes. McCain attacked them. For me, the Swift Boat Vets are a handy litmus test. O’Reilly attacked them, and I haven’t watched him since. McCain attacked him, which in his case was just one more case of him knifing people on our side of the line.

Imagine, Kerry came within a hair’s breadth of winning the election, and McCain was defending Kerry. Disgusting.

“McCain attacked him,” I meant to write “McCain attacked them”...

Long day.

John McCain is the man who used to be an honorable man.
