And I think you'll see why
Vietnam Veterans against John Kerry
Ex-SEAL Captain Larry Bailey (spellings are all guesses at this point) was master of ceremonies. Included in the lineup were ex-POW Jim Warner, Swiftie John O'Neill, B.G. Burkett, author of Stolen Valor, CIA vet Rodrigo Diaz, Captain in the Army Nurse Corps Donna Roe, and Steve Pitkin, the Vietnam Veteran who was strongarmed into lying at the Winter Soldier hearings. Some of these folks are truly great speakers. Those of us following the Swift Veterans for Truth know that John O'Neill is. Donna Roe was great too. And Larry Bailey takes a back seat to no one. All of them were good.

The stories they told ranged from Warner's story of how John Kerry's VVAW activities affected him directly while he was in a Hanoi POW camp, through the experiences of the daughter of "Black Bart," Major Roger Bartholomew of the 2/20th ARA Battalion, whose name is etched into the black wall, to The Kathleen Story, told by Donna Roe.

Sorry to break protocol and link to a blog, but honestly, there is no coverage of this rally except for Blogs and CSPAN!

#3  it is no longer the "mainstream" media. Please refer to it in the future as the "lamestream" media.

Thank you.

#2  Actually, there WAS a mentione thereof on Yahoo! ... which also interjected at least two Kerry supporters as "counterprotesters", including the infamous McPeak.

#1  I saw it on CSPAN. Maybe a 1000 people? But VERY powerful speakers. The daughter of a Vet who died in Vietnam really stole the show.
