#1 Get over yourself, LA Times. The reason "swift-boating" works is that it incorporates something you know very little about: The TRUTH. Truth is that Kerry LIED about his record in Vietnam, and LIED about the character of service of his fellow soldiers. Murtha is also LYING about the character of service of our boys in Iraq, and he will suffer the consequences for these LIES. Don't want to be targeted? Don't LIE.

#3 The guy could have been Sgt York in Vietnam. His problem is what he's going around saying these days.

Kerry's different. He tried to say his wartime experience made him presidential. He made his military record an issue. The Swift Boaters addressed that issue.

#4 Murtha doesn't need the Swift Boat Vets, he's taken self-inflicted fire.

The lawsuit should take good care of him.
