tacked onto the very end of this Gainesville Sun article that I just posted in Campaign 2004 General Discussion, "In visit to area, vet says Kerry earned medals" ( http://www.gainesville.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2004208190351 ), was this tidbit:

The Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, Vietnam Veterans Against Kerry and Veterans for Bush will hold a political rally Saturday from 2 to 10 p.m. and Sunday from noon to 8 p.m. at the Downtown Community Plaza.

1. Bring tar and feathers for Larry Thurlow

of course he may never show his face in public again

2. Contact some folks at University of Florida

They are pro Kerry and pro democrat. A rally can be be gottenup to oppose this bunch of liars. Bill Munselle is a big man in Gainesville and has a PHD in Political science, he also has an in with the Gator University. See if you can reach him to find out what can be done. He is a democratic operative down there as well. I know I used to work for him in property management.

Also, anyone from the Gainesville area planning on keeping these smear peddlers honest, perhaps we should coordinate?

7. Gainesville Swift Boat Flier and Meet the Press.....

Swift Boat Flier showed on Meet the Press yesterday. Go Gators!!!!!

8. I missed Meet the Press, but we wiped them out!

None of the Swift Boat Vets showed up because of the flier, and then the Kerry demonstrators outnumbered the Bush demonstrators almost two-to-one. It was great!
