[Once a Marine, Always a Marine?]
The anti-Vietnam War documentary Winter Soldier is having its first major theatrical release -- 34 years after it was made. It focuses on a three-day gathering in 1971 when Vietnam veterans, including former Marine pilot Rusty Sachs, told of the atrocities they had participated in or witnessed during the war.

I wonder why anyone expects a completely discredited lie-umentary to be broadcast-worthy now?
Or are liberals trying to cement their place in the basement in preparation for the 2008 elections?

Many of the people interviewed were later determined to be frauds. Many never served in Vietnam and some had never been in the military. This is the type of "documentary" that Michael Moore creates. No facts, no proof, just propaganda.

Every Vet should get this to his email list. Don't let the liberals lie to the public. The lies of John Kerry, endorsed by The NYT and Hollywood are being re-released again (34-year-old antiwar documentary "Winter Soldier" ).
First Jane Fonda comes out of retirement with her bus tour and now this.
The
VVAW used fake vets to give accounts of atrocities.
Steve Pitkin was a real VN vet.
The NBC Nightly News reveals that Al Hubbard had not been an Air Force Captain, as he claimed, but a staff sergeant E-5. A later investigation of Hubbard's military records shows that he was never assigned to Vietnam.

Or, could it actually be a ploy by NPR's new conservative-leaning management to further damage the junior liberal scumbag from MA, and all those preaching anti-Americanism on the left?

Rusty Sachs? Is he related to the Tin Man from Wizard of Oz.

"Rusty Sachs? Is he related to the Tin Man from Wizard of Oz."
