Kerry takes legal action against Vietnam critics
This is going to get good! Bring lots of popcorn.... Democratic White House hopeful John Kerry's campaign formally alleged that a group attacking his Vietnam war record had illegal ties to US President George W. Bush (news - web sites)'s reelection bid. Evidence? What Evidence? You want me to produce Evidence? Do you KNOW WHO I AM? In a statement released to reporters, Kerry's campaign announced it had "filed a legal complaint against Swift Boat Veterans for Truth (SBVT) before the Federal Election Commission (news - web sites) (FEC) for violating the law with inaccurate ads that are illegally coordinated with the Bush-Cheney presidential campaign." Any way we can get a look at the complaint? I would like to see the evidence they claim.... The move by the Kerry campaign came shortly after the Swift Boat group released a second ad attacking the Democratic presidential candidate, who was wounded three times while serving on a Swift Boat in Vietnam and decorated twice for valor. Swift Boat Veterans for Truth have accused Kerry of lying about one of the wounds he suffered and of embellishing his acts of heroism during his four months in Vietnam, charges strongly rejected by the senator from Massachusetts. Kerry on Thursday accused the Bush administration of using the Swift Boat veterans as a front group to do the "dirty work" of attacking his Vietnam War record. The New York Times on Friday reported that there is a "web of connections" What the hell is that? between the Swift Boat group and the "Bush family, high-profile Texas political figures and President Bush (news - web sites)'s chief political aide, Karl Rove." They live on the SAME PLANET! There must be a connection. Its different with Soros and Moore [with Moveon.org and Fart-911] since they don't live in this (or any known) reality.....
