New "swift boats and p.o.w.s "for truth"" ad - anyone else see it?
2 wives of former P.O.W.s talking about how their husbands were tortured and how Kerry's testimony "aided and abetted" the enemy.

Neither lady looked particularly hard-up for cash- stepford looking.

I'd like to hear others' take on it if you've seen it...

7. They are hitting their audience however


I was registering voters today.

One guy comes over and said he was voting for Bush because he was in Viet Nam and knows that Kerry is a liar!

I was going to share a few of my thoughts with him. My friend came over to me and whispered for me to back off. I did.
When the old guy left my friend said,"Best not to get into it with Vets that think that Kerry did not help them in the War."

Next few minutes, up comes a friend that I have discussed politics with for a long time. He was always PRO Democrat. I was so glad to see him! When he saw my Kerry buttons on he said, "There is no difference between the two."

After I recovered from shock, I started telling him that I went to see "Going Up River" last night and it really explained a lot for me. Well, he went OFF on me! Telling me that he didn't need to see anything about Viet Nam! That he was in Viet Nam and on and on and on." His teenage son was standing next to him and the son was so embarrassed. I did not say anything else.

There is a strong group of people that still think that Kerry was not supportive of them. So sad,

What should I have done?

8. Kerry had better watch his ass
The Boaters are sitting on dynamite evidence of debate fraud that'll get him and the whole Democratic party chased out of the country when America sees it:
I have just watched a replay of the opening of the debates. Right after Kerry shakes hands with Bush and Kerry steps behind the podium, Kerry pulls something out of the inside of his breast pocket. For all I know it could be a 'cheat' type sheet. It was not a hanky or kleenex. If that's the case, Kerry pulled a fast one on the country and his so-called debate abilities can be debunked. This is absolutely AGAINST the rules and should be questioned by the media and debate commission. What can I do to bring this to national medial attention?

Acreage of frothing idiocy snipped...
maybe bush saw it too and that's what ticked him off!

9. I read page one of that mess. What a hoot!!! ROFL
Kerry cheated? ROFLROFL
They just cannot deal with intelligence.
It always has to be that they are the victim of the evil Democrats.
The fact was that Kerry out-debated *. End of story.
I'm sure if Lehrer thought that either candidate had pulled "cheat sheets" (something I guess all freepers are knowledgeable about)
he would have stopped the debate and had the candidate surrender them.
What a bunch of cheneying fools.
WAHHHHHHHHH
ROFL

12. OMG,how rich is that little forum??
My gawd,how damn stupid can one person be--or in this case all the idiots on that forum. If dipwad Kimberly did indeed see Kerry pull something out of his suit coat could it have been his pad for taking notes??

Nah,had to be something real sinister like all the questions in advance!!!!


Shit,you could have given Bush all the questions in advance and he still would have FUCKED IT UP...

11. Who cares! I'm starting to see the Swiftbook in used stores around Dallas!
I saw a stack of about fifteen copies of the Swiftsmear book at a Half-Price Books and Records in Plano, Texas this afternoon! The book has already fallen from #1, unable to maintain that position for HALF the time Clinton's "My Life" endured and several weeks less than Franken's "Lies" and Moore's "Stupid White Men"!!! So begins its drop into obsucurity and a stain on the underpants of election '04! The NAVY has spoken on this issue once and for all. Period. End of discussion.

Am I to believe the NAVY...or some bitter Republicans from Texas?!
