Have any anti-Kerry vets been exposed as frauds?
I know there are several anti-Kerry vets. I also know that are many people who say they are Vietnam war Veterans, but they are actually frauds. But, have there been any vets that have been exposed as frauds yet? I am willing to bet it may happen soon if they haven't been exposed yet.

1. Pretty much all of them ...
... all 13 that are in the ad admitted that they did not serve on Kerry's boat and are basing their claims on heresay. Two have completely contradicted their own stories from 1996. See article here:

http://www.usatoday.com/news/politicselections/nation/president/2004-08-08-kerry-vets_x.htm

also see
www.snopes.com about Kerry's purple hearts (under politics, Kerry)

also check
http://mediamatters.org to check on co-author of the book and Freeper Grand Wizard Jerome Corsi

also check John Kerry's site - they have lots of info that rebut these guys ....

2. what they say
they say they're nonpartasin, but its just a coincidence this book, which couldnt have been written in the last few weeks, has been waiting for kerry to run, and probably got props from bush

excpet bush is too dumb to realize this will bring up talk about the nam and people will realize kerry bravely served his country while bush smoked pot while skipping outta n'tnl guard duty

3. yeh I think this will backfire with many Viet Vets...
no-one's reputation is safe while these creeps destroy the idea of medals..anyone who went to serve can be accused of the opposite. And every soldier in Iraq knows that in a war situation, all hell break loose.

I think it may cost the Republican military votes.
