They have to be careful about going after these men. They are also veterans. They also served. The truth is these men are not saying anything as nasty about Kerry as he said about all of them years ago.

The silly bastard should have left Viet Nam out of this.

That is so very true. And bringing up first W’s service and then Viet Name is making it much easier for my group and others to attack Kerry’s post-war falsehoods.

What he said then is inexcusable and intolerable, and is the reason there are a whole lot of Vietnam Vets who are working to counter that attack.

I don’t think we an do anything as dramatic as the Swifties, but we will try.

I was amazed at the Convention. It’s like Kerry was asking for it. Maybe he’s too narcissistic to realize that he is despised by the Swifties, but he had warning with their May 5 press conference.

Two things I want to clarify:

The opinions that should count the most are those of the other officers in the unit – especially those who operated with Kerry – they are his peers in a very small (100 people) unit.

Being on Kerry’s boat is not the only place to observe him. The officers on the other boats watched him closely (as they watched everything in the environment).

Oh, and Rassman spent 2 days with the swifties.
