Cool beans...

Goody.

Yeah doggies! It's about time we heard the truth regarding the "war hero" who gave 4 months of his life for his country. I hope the mainstream press gets this but I doubt it.

ANTI-KERRY VETS GATHER FOR ASSAULT; BOOK CLAIMS KERRY WAR 'FABRICATIONS'

**Exclusive**

A veterans group seeking to deeply discredit Democrat John Kerry's military service will charge in the new bombshell book UNFIT FOR DUTY:


Two of John Kerry's three Purple Heart decorations resulted from self-inflicted wounds, not suffered under enemy fire.


All three of Kerry's Purple Hearts were for minor injuries, not requiring a single hour of hospitalization.


A "fanny wound" was the highlight of Kerry's much touted "no man left behind" Bronze Star.


Kerry turned the tragic death of a father and small child in a Vietnamese fishing boat into an act of "heroism" by filing a false report on the incident.


Kerry entered an abandoned Vietnamese village and slaughtered the domestic animals owned by the civilians and burned down their homes with his Zippo lighter.


Kerry's reckless behavior convinced his colleagues that he had to go -- becoming the only Swift Boat veteran to serve only four months.

The Kerry campaign is planning to vigorously counter the charges and will accuse the veteran's groups of being well-financed by a top Bush donor from Texas, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

"They hired a goddamn private investigator to dig up trash!" charged a top Kerry adviser traveling with the senator late Tuesday. "This is pay for play, and the dirtiest of all dirty tricks ever played on a candidate for the presidency. How low can they go?"

Kerry supporters are comparing the effort by the veterans to the Arkansas State troopers tell-all against Bill Clinton.

UNFIT FOR DUTY will not be released until August 15.

The names. The details. All on the record.

Beginning tomorrow, the DRUDGE REPORT will break the embargo.

Good move by the Kerry team. Keep pushing that!

[BJungNan]

What is the siren all about. This was on FR days if not weeks ago.

[Las Vegas Dave]

Thanks for the update!!

[mewzilla]

May not change their minds, but it might embarrass them into staying home.

What is wrong with anyone hiring a private detective? Let's see Kerry's medical records from the military. That is where the truth lies.

"I really am not sure that this will help Bush...those who haven't made up thier minds will think bush put them up to it"

It's Bush's fault for every damn thing that's ever happened in the past 3.5 years. Why shouldn't this be any different?

[mewzilla]

Good move by the Kerry team. Keep pushing that

With a (Toon retread) campaign staff like that, who needs opponents?!

[martin_fierro]

[Rebelbase]

Never diss the Siren!

[OXENinFLA]

This book will DESTROY Kerry.
