The SwiftVets Aren't Playing

Bill from INDC mentions their newest endorser, Col. "Bud" Day, Medal of Honor winner and POW.

Meanwhile, RedState both scores a blogging coup and also creates further "shadowy links" between the right wing blogosphere and the SwiftVets by being invited to watch the filming of the next SwiftVets ad.

The SwiftVets appear poised to hit hard:

We have agreed not to discuss details of this ad in advance. We can report that it will be the most crippling blow delivered so far from a group that almost certainly single-handedly derailed the initial momentum of the Kerry campaign in August.

And thanks to an overwhelming spontaneous deluge of gifts from fellow veterans and fellow citizens, Swift Boat Veterans for Truth are now financially prepared to buy enough airtime to have a real impact.

To those who say the Swift Boat charges have already done all the damage they can to Kerry and the campaign has moved on to other fronts, we say, wait until you see this ad!

Sure, sounds a little breathless and all, but I'm inclined to think this will at least be one of their stronger ads.

And this ad will have something the other ads didn't-- real money behind it, and real paid-media exposure.

Seeing that first Swift Vet ad after Kerry's shameless pimping of his war record was like a heroin rush. I give these guys a $25 donation for every ad they produce. And you can see the impact they had if you look at the price graph of the Iowa Electionic Market. It's astonishing. These guys did an unbelievable service to this country by doing their best to keep a guy like Kerry out of the White House.

Boy, that sounds exciting. But Ace, you forgot to call them "Swift Boat LIARS For Truth". Haven't you gotten the memo? Under McCain-Feingold, they had to change their name. Plus there was already a reggae band called Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.

Before jumping all over me, I want to make sure everybody knows my above comment was a joke.

I understand they will have Vets, including the Royalty of all Soldiers - the POWs - say one after another that Kerry is a louse - for various reasons.

I sort of wish they would also run a quickie on the VVAW terror plot to assassinate 6 Congressional leaders. The one that Kerry denied involved in until witnesses - inc. one called by Kerry's henchman to "change his memory of events" said Kerry was there. Then the FBI FOIA report nailed Kerry as definitely being at the 1971 Kansas City VVAW meeting. Senator Kerry then claimed he had no memory of discussing killing some of the Senators he testified in front of, in offices he hoped to be in one day. His staff called it "an interesting historical footnote to a controversial but long-ago time".

Yeah, right! Kerry's biggest lie of all, even if witnesses said he strongly and persuasively argued against killing the Congressional leaders at the meeting. Kerry the lying patrician terror plotter.

What is disturbing is that Kerry refuses to release all of his records. Apparantly, he was NOT dishonorable discharged, his reason for refusing the relase, and his records were obviously 'cleaned' a little by Clinton before he left office in 2001. This is an important issue, and since a suit was placed in court for Bush's files, I find it disturbing that nobody looks into Kerry's files, who would reveal the dark character of Kerry.

JOE ROGAN: "People are worried that Elon is going to steal everyone's money. He has $400B. Elon's not going to steal your money. That's not what he's doing. He's a super genius that has been f**ked with. When you've been f**ked with by these nitwits that hide behind 3-letter agencies, and you're dealing with one of the smartest people alive helping Donald Trump get into office and find out what corruption is really going on, you f**ked up.

You f**ked up and picked the wrong psychopath on the spectrum. He's going to hunt you down and find out what's going on, and that's good for everybody. That's how you should be looking at this, like 'Wow, we have a brilliant mind examining these really corrupt and goofy systems and bringing in a bunch of psychopath wizards."
