I don’t understand that “Swift Boating,” whatever it means in principle, necessarily must have anything to do wiht having “served,” whatever that means. It happened the John Kerry’s military record was the object of the original lie-fighting Swift Boaters, but the practice of setting straight a record of performance that has been grossly misrepresented can apply as well under the aegis of Swift Boating to the misrepresented, but largely obscured, life of Obama.
So, are you saying that O had no petard upon which he could be hoisted?
