Based up on the standards used to give the swift boat vets a platform. . .
. . .Kitty Kelly deserves to be given a fair hearing in the media. The DNC won't/can't say this, Kerry won't/can't say this, but we the people can say this. I would think if John O'Neill is credible enough to get the press that he did, then Kitty Kelly/Sharon Bush should be just as credible. Remember Kerry and the DNC can't and won't drive this story but we need to.

Don't let the media cover it up!

3. YES, or course.
The allegations need to be discussed in every detail for months and months.
LOL.

8. I hope someone uses the same expression that George Bush Sr...
used when asked about the Swift Boat Liars. This is what he said, from a NYT article:

"Mr. Bush called "rather compelling" the claims of some veterans who have attacked Mr. Kerry's service"

If the lies of the Swifties are "rather compelling" then Kitty Kelly's claims should be "shockingly compelling".

9. Kerry and the DNC can't drive it... but where are our surrogates?
Surely there must be someone who can do the dirty work. Pushing Bush off-message and on the defensive for three weeks over these cocaine allegations would hurt him even more than the Swiftboat Liars hurt Kerry, given the timing.

10. I agree - but who doubts that Rove is digging up dirt on Kelley even
as we speak (if he hasn't already done so)? The Bush/Rove smear machine will throw everything they have at her, so get ready to stay on message.
