NIGHTLINE sneak peek
Edited on Thu Oct-14-04 06:31 PM by davidjhorrell
Looks bad for the Swiftvets, but doesn't look so good for Kerry either. It'll be a spin war.

1. Just read the whole thing.... and what exactly "doesn't look so good"
for Kerry? Heavy, heavy fighting.

2. Actually it debunks the Swfitvets pretty well and does no harm to Kerry.

3. I read it as looking very bad for the swiffers
and not at all bad for Kerry.

9. Yes, it sounds like Vietnamese witnesses put the lie to the Swift Liars
They talk about the big firefight that the Swifties claim never happened. Shooting coming from all directions, shooting by both sides. They talk about the "unarmed boy" the Swifties say Kerry killed was really a strong, grown man. He was NOT shot in the back.

There is nothing negative about John Kerry, at all, in the summary.

4. I think it will
make Kerry look like a hero who was under real enemy fire during the war.

I feel really bad--because I wrote a complaint e-mail to nightline earlier--before we knew all the facts. I hope this comes out good--it seems to have some nice potential for our side...

6. I like the picture of him with the dog, VC. In a WP article, it stated
that during firefights he would stick the dog up under his shirt and vest. The dog would start shaking and pee on him. It just shows what a good guy he is.

7. Sounds like Kerry was OF COURSE correct.

Swift Boat Asshats are proven to be the liars we all knew them to be.
