[Proud2BAmurkin]

Just dawning on them that Kerry couldn't hope for better "opponents"

1. When am I going to learn not to follow Freeper links.

I feel so ill now.

[Connie_Corleone]

2. It's like a bad car wreck...

You can't help but look.

[AlCzervik]

6. me too, never should have clicked

it's like a car accident....don't wanna look...can't look away!!!

[Jazzgirl]

15. I feel ill too. I should know better as well.

:puke:

[yardwork]

38. Who were they threatening to shoot today?

I swear the whole freeper board is one mass fantasy about killing people. If it weren't a right-wing board, the secret service would have carted most of them off to Gitmo by now.

[wyldwolf]

3. Yeah, I heard O'Reilly's radio show today...

...said the evidence just wasn't on the side of those who made the commercial.

Said NONE served WITH Kerry - just at the same time as Kerry. 11 of the 12 on Kerry's boat were FOR Kerry, including the man who says Kerry saved his life.

O'Reilly: They (Swift Boat Vets) can't overcome that...

[bossfish]

4. I like these comments

(about Bill O'Rielly slamming the ad)

To: Jenya
Got to remember this blue collar Irish guy is actually a Harvard liberal.

To: cyncooper
Well, IMO, Hume sounded like he didn't want to touch it. And Krauthammer suggesting we might never know the truth, fog of war and all that, was unbelievable. There's nothing foggy about falsified records, rice instead of shrapnel, or inflicted versus self-infliced wounds.

=====

To: sinkspur
Yes - haven't we learned anything from the Clinton years :(

He was a liar and scoundrel, and in our zeal to prove that over and over, the populace was turned off to the opposition and rallied around him to some extent. The Dems should stand alone in this election as the negative ones.

[anti_shrub]

8. Haha, now freepers talk about falsified records

yet Chimp's questionable "honorable discharge" is held up as ironclad proof....

[Booster]

37. Hannity was just saying to the Viet Nam vet that

Kerry saved, that we should fully investigate Kerry's Viet Nam record, which pissed me off so I wrote Hannity an email and said "since Fox is fair and balanced" then you must also think we should fully investigate Bush's military record and bring on his service buddies to back him up. ha He won't read it, but it felt good.

[Insomnicole]

22. Whoa!

You know the Freepiots are pissed at O'Reilly when they call him a "Harvard Liberal!" That's about the nastiest insult they've got in their arsenal.

We better keep our powder dry on this one. It could backfire, big time.

It already has, numbnuts.

[yardwork]

39. Rice instead of shrapnel????

Do they ever listen to themselves?

[rumguy]

5. now that is funny

they are in full blown melt-down mode...

[The Spirit of JFK]

7. My favorite quote...

"I agree that it could backfire because of the rotten, ridiulous bias of the media, but what are we doing if we have to pretend that liars aren't liars and that phoneys are heroes? Is this what the libs have forced us into?"

Good lord....where do I start? Ow! My brain hurts now...

[mom cat]

9. LOL...Flip flop O'Reiley!

Thank you for putting the cherry on top. :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :dem:

[wicket]

10. OMG, they are trying to say Fox is pro-Kerry

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHA!!!

[proud patriot]

20. That in and of itself is "PRICELESS"

:D

[wicket]

28. It certainly is!

Hehehehehehe :D

[sundancekid]

11. bad roll for the freepers recently, and in short order

first, the COO of Faux News endorses Kerry; and,
then, tonite, the pillar memes turn their own corners: O'Lielly, Hume and some FAUX roundtablers want to disavow the not-so-swift vets' ad ...

... let the peeling off begin ... that's how "turning THOSE corners" (to borrow a phrase) lead to landslides for the challenger candidate ...

[Ducks In A Row]

29. Not worried about the FOX COO

Randi reminded us that companies with business before the Congress always cover their bases. And since the CEO isn't about to "endorse" Kerry, the COO is their next best.

[jjmalonejr]

12. Creepy part is, some Freeper threads don't look all that different from

certain DU threads.

Panic.

Reckless charges.

Rumors and name calling.

Demonizing of normally revered figures who make the mistake of not towing the party line JUST ONCE

[mike1963]

13. Erm, it's "toeing" the party line

:eyes:

[jjmalonejr]

45. Thanks for demonstrating how smart you are and how dumb I am.

I appreciate the correction, but any comment about the content of my message.

[Trajan]

23. Blah blah ....

you would think we are exactly the same .. eh ? ...

Yeah: I see it too ....

Ehem ....

[comradebillyboy]

54. its what makes these boards fun

we can be as crazy, reckless and partisan as we want to be, safe in our anonymity

[TryingToWarnYou]

56. Why do you hate America so much? /sarcasm!

[louis c]

14. If Fox is to Liberal for them

maybe the should read Mein Kampf?

[Murdock]

16. The Freepers...

The Freeps have a serious case of cognitive dissonance, It's scary that we have so many people in this nation that have drank the kool aid..

[guitar man]

17. What a dipshit

from post #30

*Vietnam was buried in the past until Kerry came on the scene and told everyone he was a war hero.*

No, asshole, Vietnam was never buried in the past and it became an issue when your "War President" had the audacity to try and convince the country that he was some kind of goddamned "war hero" when in fact he couldn't even show up for his ANG duty. Your fucking guy opened up this can of worms by making ridiculous statements like "I've been to war, and I've rasied two daughters" (paraphrase) and then put on his little show on the aircraft carrier with the sock stuffed in his flight suit. Too bad he got caught bullshitting and someone has the nerve to call him on it. Boo Hoo.

had a choice, I'd rather go to war."

[Trajan]

27. Furthermore: Kerry never said he was a 'War Hero" ....

HE served, and received minor accolades for minor wounds ... nothing special or inappropriate there ... same as anyone else who was wounded in the war ...

He DID save a man's life: does that make him a 'War Hero" ? .. or just a Hero ? ...

Tis THEY who prop up this caricature strawman of Kerry: Kerry said no such thing ...

He served ...

He knows what war is ...

He killed, and was mildly wounded ...

He received medals ...

He saved a man's life ....

He led men, and those men admire him ....

The Swifties are less soldiers denigrating a fellow soldier, and more rightists casting stones at a good man in the hopes of smearing him ....

The Freepers will never emerge from their self-imposed cages ...

[yardwork]

43. I wouldn't call a Silver Star and Bronze Star minor accolades

and I don't think being wounded three times would be a walk in the park, either.

[Trajan]

48. Well: I'm not trying to minimize it ....

My point is: Kerry is standing on his record, and not really 'expanding' it or adorning it ... He did what he did, and received what everyone else did when such things happened to them ... Kerry DID his job, and didnt shy from it ... was WAS wounded, even if not critically: but that doesnt matter: HE STUCK HIS NECK OUT ... and he offered his life for his country .... I would honor a GOPer if they did the same: very few actually did ...

Now: His rescue of Rassman was absolutely HEROIC ..

There is NO questioning that, and only a fool would try ...

Chuckles ... guess what ? .. they are ....

[Old and In the Way]

55. The thing about minor war wounds-

if they had been a few inches in another direction they become deadly war wounds. To be wounded 3 times means:

(1) he is a very lucky man.
(2) he is a very brave man.
(3) he deserves the 3 purple hearts he got.

[fearnobush]

18. This is a case of sever Group Think. I think the Freepers are a bit scared

about their new book, backfiring. As for the 527's, I have not seen any ad that even comes close to this. Not even those ads against Dukakas come close. Talk about abhorrent. I know Kerry has anticipated this from his Nixon appointed hit man, O'Neill since he decided to run for Prez. I now know why he went so strong on his record of service, since without the truth from his shipmates, these BFEE death squads would have their way with him as they did with McCain and with Cleland. Now, Lets prove there evil and have it expose them and the truth behind the BFEE.

[CarolynEC]

26. I'm got a stoopit question

Sorry to be dense, but what's BFEE stand for?



Edited: In my question, I managed to get the acronym wrong on the first try. Oy.

[Connie_Corleone]

n/t

[CarolynEC]

41. Got it. Thanks.

How about "Bolting For Every Exit," as a description of Bushies' reaction to the swift boat ad? :)

[guitar man]

47. LOL

I love it! Welcome to DU.

:hi:

[CarolynEC]

51. Nice place you've got here

Thanks for the welcome. :)

[Zookeeper]

19. What a bunch of knuckleheads!

The fact that Kerry even risked his behind by volunteering to go to Vietnam while Bushwah's daddy kept him safely in the states, pretty much negates any criticism. Bushie's idea of "service" was partying and going AWOL. And the Freepers can't admit it.

[Disturbed]

24. Swiftboat Vets who dissed Kerry...

not too swift upstairs. They just gave Kerry a boost. ;)

[Trajan]

21. You can smell the fear ....

How fascinating ....

They fear FAUX being 'liberal' ...

They fear Kerry standing on his military service ....

They fear Bush being tarred with the hatred of the RW Swifties ....

Chuckles: you made your bed : now sleep in it ....

Faux ? .. liberal ? ... BWUAHAHAHAAA ...

What a crazy little cell each little freeper mind inhabits: drab grey walls covered in psychotic fecal graffiti ...

[shraby]

33. Don't these people know how to google?

By the way BFEE is Bush Family Evil Empire

[Walt Starr]

30. It's just beginning to dawn on them. Their beloved smear campaign

is about to sink like a rock and end up in a bump for Kerry in the polls.

There are prominent long time Freepers who have been working on this since very early this year.

It has backfired on them big time and this may be pointed to in the future as the moment the deal was sealed and Bush lost the election, primarily due to the efforts of the members of FreeRepublic.com.

I've been a long time lurker over there. I believe in knowing my enemies.

[Connie_Corleone]

36. I'm a long time lurker there too.

And to think that earlier this week the freepers were saying Kerry was finished because of this ad.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

[Trajan]

50. Perhaps I am ill-informed ...

You say: FREEPERS planned and excuted this campaign ?? ..

THEY, or some of their members, are DIRECTLY responsible for producing and distributing this ad ?? ...

Oh glory: ... There IS a god ! ....

[kskiska]

32. They were all so gleeful and absolutely giddy this afternoon

Now they're crestfallen that their very own Brit Hume and his All-Stars have betrayed them. I just caught a few minutes of Pat Buchanan and Mike Barnicle and they're dissing it, too.

Watch for the White House to start distancing themselves from it. They were so in-your-face today, but there may be a flip-flop coming.

[Walt Starr]

35. OMFG, Now the hypocrites are calling on Kerry to release

his military records!!!!!

OMFG!!!!

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[yardwork]

44. He already did.

Kerry's military records are exemplary. He released them earlier this year.

Um, where're W's? Time to start asking about them....

[Feanorcurufinwe]

53. Apparently using the web is too difficult for them

if the url is not freerepublic.com


http://www.johnkerry.com/about/john_kerry/military_records.html

[Walt Starr]

57. And then there's the hypocrisy of it all

like, when is THEIR boy king going to release HIS military records?

[shawmut]

34. ba da ba ba baa.

I'm lovin' it. :D

[magnolia]

40. Are they insane????

Freeper post:

"My thoughts exactly. Remember this is a fight on Kerry's turf. He could turn it against Bush by shining a light on Bush's Vietnam record (not bad, but not as good as someone who was awarded medals)."

Bush's Vietnam record???????

[yardwork]

46. Not bad????? The freeper thinks W's record is "not bad????"

bwaaahaaahaaaahaaaaa!

Not bad. For an AWOL cokehead who skipped his physical, not bad at all.

[Walt Starr]

42. OMFG, LOOK AT THIS PHOTOSHOP

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA The Freepers have gone off the deep end!!!!!

[Window]

49. Damn!

They are truly a pathetic bunch of sick MoFo's.

[Trajan]

52. Ooooooo ... SCARY ! ...

To: Miss Marple
There were rumors that Bush senior had pictures, maybe even a video of Clinton burning the American flag in Moscow during the years he failed to attend classes in Oxford. Bush didn't show the pictures during the campaign because it was ungentlemanly and he lost. Well, we don't have time for Mr. Nice Guy. By Nov. we may be dealing with nuclear devices exploding, here, there, and everywhere. GW and the republicans know quite well that Kerry and the RATs will skirt every campaign finance rule, smear, spin, and lie themselves blue in the face to win in Nov. Kerry's like a vampire about to climb out of his coffin at nightfall. GW and the republican party had better drive that stake right through his chest and fast.

58. Yea, I was reading the freeper board earlier,

that place is toxic.

The funniest comment I saw was a poster complaining about Fox New's "liberal bias". These people are fucking deluded.
