sorry, you're right, it was the other Swift Boat skippers of his division, who served with Kerry (immediate vicinity), and whose picture he used in his campaign literature, who objected. This photograph of John Kerry with 19 other Coastal Division 11 Swift boat officers is featured in a new Kerry campaign ad called Lifetime. Swift Boat Veterans for Truth contacted surviving members of this group to find out how many actually support Kerry. Click on the photo to see the results. Click here for a morphing video of the two images. Here's the breakdown: Of the 19 Swift boat skippers pictured, 11 oppose Kerry, 4 are neutral, two have died, and 2 are working with the Kerry campaign. The four officers not present for the photo all oppose Kerry. ice.he.net In a way, this whole argument is so absurd. How can a 60 year old 4 term Senator possibly think that he can run his whole campaign on a 4 month tour as a Swift boat skipper over thirty years ago? Has he done nothing since worthy of note?
