steven gardener is in the ad, but schachte is not. schacte needs to come forward, but he seems not to want to, or he is being held in reserve for effect later.

Nadine, what do you think is going on here? Is this a flip-flop?

Sharon Approves New West Bank Construction

JERUSALEM, Aug. 17 -- The Israeli government announced Tuesday that it had approved the construction of 1,000 new housing units at four Jewish settlements in the West Bank, prompting sharp rebukes from Palestinians and Israeli peace activists who said the building would strengthen Israel's grip on the West Bank and violate promises made to the United States to freeze settlement growth.

The new units come on top of plans revealed two weeks ago that Israel soon will start work on 600 housing units at a major settlement just outside Jerusalem, and they are in addition to hundreds more units that are in the planning pipeline, according to pro- and anti-settlement activists and Israeli media reports.

Is this point about none of the guys on Kerry's boat being in the ad true?

Gardner was on Kerry's boat longer than any of the "Kerry eight." Schate, now a retired Rear Admiral, was Kerry's training officer on the Boston Whaler that Kerry used to try to get his first Purple heart.

The Kerryfolk are consistently lying about this in an attempt to confuse the issue.

The other major way they try to confuse it is by saying, "none of these men SERVED with Kerry and are giving 3rd and 4th hand accounts." Reminds me of what "is" is.

As you can see from your questions, and from others here, they have been successful. If the people on this thread have difficulty understanding it, imagine the bewilderment of the general public.

About the most you can hope from the unwashed masses is that they either pick up from the ad that Kerry is a liar, or that they believe the Swift vets are. This will be influenced the most by the number of times the Vets can run the ad. The more money they get, the more they can run it, the more votes will be swayed.

This is what is driving the Kerry Kamp nuts.
