John O'Neill, the Vietnam veteran who took on John Kerry in the 1971 debate on American "war crimes" that was recently rebroadcast on C-SPAN, will be interviewed by Wolf Blitzer on CNN this evening. O'Neill, who commanded a Swift boat in the same division as Kerry -- though for considerably longer -- more than held his own against Kerry during a 90-minute special broadcast of the Dick Cavett Show. Now he is challenging Senator Kerry to continue the debate they began 33 years ago, in an effort to clear the names of the Vietnam veterans Kerry once accused of war crimes "committed on a day-to-day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command."

Kerry's book from post Vietnam will deliver the death blow. No wonder Dennis the Menace remained in the race.

O'Neill tells Blitzer that the Swift Boat vets have organized and are coming out against Kerry -- except for the seven or eight pro-Kerry activists that Kerry keeps recyclying.

Hanoi Kerry is thru after his "The New Soldier" book has been exposed.
Scum bag started his book making ridicule of flag raising on Iwo Jima.

Wow. Seldom do you see something "deliver" like that one did!

I figured it was the same guys over and over. And wouldn't they have been with Kerry, so THEIR "story" depends on his, right?

We all already KNEW that! Maybe the rest of the country will now. This man is HONEST and John Kerry is a LIAR! Kerry NEEDS to release his RECORDS, ALL OF THEM, including the ones still at the Pentagon.

The burning question is why did CNN put this guy on the air?
We all know they can suppress news at will.....
