Actually swift boat skippers were widely respected inspite of the war. I would prefer that someone was in charge however that did not call me and our fellow shipmates "rapists" and "dog killers" and insinuating (actually saying clearly) that we take pleasure in oppressing the poor villagers of Vietnam. Kerry himself admited he was exaggerating before the Senate when he made those accusations. Hey, even my wife who has been in the US a total of two months can see through Kerry. He will be exposed soon enough for the political opportunists, fraud that he is. If he is using Vietnam vets to back him then let him hear the whole gamut of opinions from vets. He opened the can of worms now let him put them back in..

I think they were prepared. Someone needs to start sue Drudge for spreading libel. Everytime I see some of this stuff, it's always because Drudge is reporting it. I mean come on, even Fox isn't touching this. |
You do realize the last time that happened, the lawsuit not only failed, but the plaintiff had to recompense Drudge for court costs?

XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX TUESDAY MAY 01, 2001 16:01:01 ET XXXXX
MAY DAY: LAWSUIT AGAINST DRUDGE DROPPED; BLUMENTHAL PAYS CASH TO GET OUT!
Former Clinton White House aide Sidney Blumenthal today dropped his $30 million lawsuit against the DRUDGE REPORT and editor Matt Drudge after agreeing to a settlement which requires Blumenthal to pay cash to Drudge's attorneys.
"This frivolous lawsuit, which was approved by a sitting president and vice president of the United States, comes to its wimpy conclusion with Mr. Blumenthal, I repeat, Mr. Blumenthal cutting a check," Drudge said. "In return, I pay him nothing, and have agreed not to countersue."
The 100+ page suit made front page headlines worldwide and was considered a "test case" for the development of Internet libel law.
After nearly four years of litigation, Blumenthal rushed to settle the case when Drudge filed a motion to dismiss the suit for lack of merit and to recover attorneys' fees.
Sounding a personal May Day cry, Blumenthal went to the courthouse today to sign settlement papers and withdraw the case.
Through twists and turns, from a battle over jurisdiction to a clash over the privilege to protect confidential sources [Federal Judge Paul Friedman ruled early in the case that Drudge "was not a reporter, news gatherer or journalist"], the lawsuit pitted the White House against an individual reporter.
"This result vindicates our position that, in defamation cases, the First Amendment's protection extends to individuals operating in new mediums, no less than to traditional journalists in corporate newsrooms," said Drudge's lead attorney Manny Klausner.
"I am forever in debt to my attorneys, to all those who contributed to the DRUDGE REPORT legal defense fund and to David Horowitz's Center for the Study of Popular Culture," said Drudge.
"It was a Clinton-approved lawsuit, which was filed by Clinton's right-hand man, being heard before a Clinton-appointed judge. But all the King's horses and all the King's men couldn't bring the DRUDGE REPORT to an untimely end!"

Unfit for Command? Or more Fit for Command than Bush?
At least Kerry turned up for duty. Unlike Bush.
