Bill O'Riley defends Kerry !
Just flipped by Bill O'riley and he was pretty much trashing one of the Swift Boat thugs... made the guy look foolish!

He called Kerry brave for serving and question what the guy could know since he did not really serve closely with Kerry.

...for once... thanks O'Riley

3. the rethugs know this only makes THEM look bad
I'm not surprised that he would do this. If they side with the not-so-swift boat guys, they'll piss off the military voter even more than they already have.

9. It didn't stop novak ..in an article in his Chicago paper
this morning that I saw on c-span. What does he write for the Chicago Sun Times?

I didn't read the article with the host on c-span but it looked like novak was trying to perpetuate the smear. Surprised?

5. Was just telling my wife about that
Couldn't believe it.

You know what this means. It means the ads have backfired on bush and they're trying to distance themselves. Boy, I wish I could read FAUX's talking points.

6. O'leilly is at it again!!
That wasn't much of a defense of Kerry, basically taking everything that anti Kerry vet said as fact, saying "I believe you" many times.
Also, did you catch him lying about the membership of Swift Boat Vets? He said there are 3500 against Kerry (He was quoting from the USA Today which said there are 254 anti-Kerry out of 3500 total swift boat vets.) LYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

8. This is just the Bush administration's way of
distancing itself from the Swift Boat Veterans. It didn't poll well and Bushie cannot come out and denounce it himself so his lackies at Faux news and Rash Limpballs will do it for him.

It must be the Faux News talking points for the day. Play up Kerry's service and denounce the Swift Boaters.

11. He probably wants them to stop the free advertising
they are giving to Kerry. I'm sure there is a great percentage of people that don't know about his medals and that he was an officer that requested duty. Thanks SBVFT for spreading the word while at the same time exposing yourselves as the partisan Republican frauds you are.
