Is Kerry still going to sue the Swift Boat Vets?
Has anybody else heard anything about that? I'd like to know. I heard he was planning to sue them for slander.

I hope it's soon. I want him to hang the Nixonites out to dry!

1. Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't
If he does, he is an unpatriotic commie pink liberal who is suing patriotic war veterans who fought bravely for their country. If he doesn't he will be painted a coward/sniveling commie pinko weakling. The right owns this issue, and they have exploited it to the hilt.

when the Swift Boat Liars ad producer comes to town this Sunday.

I never actually heard Kerry say he was going to do it. I guess it all depends on who you talk to.

6. A lot would depend on the venue,
If it's heard by a Reagen-Bushler packed judge, they'd never rule for slander in a million years.

9. I hope that he does sue the SOBs
Under Texas law, he needs to do this within one year of the defamatory statement which means that August of this year is the deadline for filing suit to be safe
