Swift Boat Veterans for Truth - New Reports Detail Even Closer Ties to Bush Campaign
http://www.johnkerry.com/pressroom/releases/pr_2004_0822b.htmlFlorida, and now Minnesota GOP illegally supporting Swift Boat Veterans organization:
Official Minnesota Republican Website Linked to Swift Boat Ads and Book. Webpage “Prepared and Paid for by Republican Party of Minnesota”.
In Minnesota, like Florida--a battleground state with polls showing Bush & Kerry in a dead heat—an official Republican Party webpage was recently found to be linking to the Swift Boat Ads. The webpage goes on to question Kerry and has these questions about John Kerry's service in Vietnam: SWIFT VETS ARE GETTING TO KERRY; DID HE LIE ABOUT HIS SERVICE, repeatedly, in an effort to embellish it? DID HE TAKE CREDIT for engagements fought by other men (Lt. Ted Peck in particular)? The website also contains a link to purchase the book produced by Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, "Unfit For Command".
