Just another lefty loon railing about how evil Republicans are. Again.

All these restrictions of speech have to stop...and remove themselves. Thank you Soros and McCain.

The key to effective “swift boating” is that that target has to be a liar with little character or spine. The swift boater has to be honorable, truthful and courageous. If either one is not just right, it is ineffective.

[Don Corleone]

He doesn’t even know what “Swift Boating” means or is. What a dork.

“Swift Boating describes the effective use on well funded false charges against the personal character of a candidate.”

Umm, what false charge would that be? They had Kerry dead to rights, lying like a S.A.S.

[EggsAckley]

"well funded false charges ?????

[Jeff Head]

Well, since the charges against Kerry were true, the left's = definition fails. As are these "charges"

[EDINVA]

and speaking of garbage ... I can’t read more tha the excerpt. Does the author go on to enumerate the ‘false charges?’

Unlike most ‘negative’ political advertising, the Swift Boat Vets were real people who served w/Kerry who stepped forward courageously against the odds to tell their story and version of events. To this day we haven’t seen a 180.

[Wade827]

No barf alert? Yeesh.

[Old Retired Army Guy]

“well funded false charges”. The Swift Boat charges were true!

[TLI]

Our president did not have a distinctive military service in the National Guard in Texas during the Vietnam War, and his opponent, John Kerry had military service in Vietnam that earned him several purple hearts.

HAHAHAHAHA! The ones printed on Band-aids?

[BenLurkin]

"Swift Boating describes the effective use on well funded false charges..."

What false charges?

[Thanks RR Rest Well]

Did anyone keep count - how many vets questioned Kerry’s
accounts vs. how many came to his defense? Had to be like
100 to 2 against.

[Oztrich Boy]

Swift Boating describes the effective use on well funded false charges against the personal character of a candidate.

And as this never happened before 2004, the term dates from that time

[frankenMonkey]

Has Jon Carey collected his $1 Million yet? He said he was gonna do it...

[JoeGar]

Swift Boating describes the effective use on well funded false charges ...

The writer obviously thinks that Richard Nixon really did send John Kerry into Cambodia in 1968. (Tip: Nixon wasn't President in 1968.)

[bert]

I e mailed Jim Crawford a link to this thread and how people think about his writing.

With writers like him, it’s no wonder Ohio is in deep trouble

[ProtectOurFreedom]

“Swiftboating” is actually the revealing of the truth that has been swept under the rug and kept out of the daylight by the MSM.

[DManA]

To me being Swift Boated is to be a truthful whistle blower and be branded as a liar by partisans who don’t like your message.

[garyhope]

I sent the Swiftboater’s money before I sent them some more money. Bought their book too.

One of the few times I’ve ever sent any group or political campaign money.

I guess I was duped. /Sar.

“Swift Boating describes the effective use on well funded false charges against the [ratscumbag]”
So let's see frenchie was falsely accused of being a phony who claimed phantom injuries and treason in that he personally conducted “peace talks” with the viet cong. Oh and alger hiss and the rosenbergs were framed and pete seeger was never a communist. helen douglas was never a communist either. As a matter of fact it really was all made up. Right!
Since this is all a pack of lies about frenchie, all he has to do to clear it all up is sign a DD 180.
