#11  I find it hard to believe he managed to buy ALL the copies. He probably just bought the unsold ones from the publisher, and possibly from bookstores. Assuming he sold any in the first place, there must be some around in attics or libraries somewhere.

Everybody start looking! :-p

#10  Kerry has declined to have "The New Soldier" republished over the years and reportedly bought up most of the available copies in 1972, after his opponent in a congressional race used it to paint him as anti-American.

He bought up all the copies? Well, I s'pose nobody can say anything bad about the guy's book if it can't be had, right? :)

#9  It's really been fun watching the MSM report on Kerry "fighting back" while fastidiously trying to avoid any specific description of the charges he is fighting back against.

so true. It's been equally fun watching them flush the remaining shreds of dignity they once had down the toilet for Kerry, a man they don't even like.

This is the 21st Century. The old anchor's are oh, so.. 20th. The net drives the news now. People interested in news flock to real reporters, not talking heads that spew party line with a straight face. This whole Cambodia/Swift Votes thing is just hastening their inevitable demise.

"Some people have said some things about JFK that we're way too refined to report here, but here's a clip of Edwards saying those guys are liars."

#7  Generally I don't care for lawyers of any stripe but there is something very gratifing watching O'Neill f**k Kerry with a dick so big an elephant would feel it.

heh

O'Neill is the man!

#4  O'Neill invokes the CLINT EASTWOOD invitation system. . .adapted for legal briefs rather than firearms.

#3  Best passage:
The best-selling author said that while [publisher] Regnery declined to stop printing "Unfit [for Command]," it offered to republish Kerry's 1971 book, "The New Soldier," which chronicles the top Democrat's anti-war protests with a group bankrolled by Jane Fonda.

Sweet! How does that work for you, Kerry?
