Bush is a liar and a frontman for special interests. No one should be cheering the libelous lies of the SmearVets temporarily giving Bush a few dirty percentage points. It's a disgrace. it's un-American and un-patriotic. Fortunately, since the election isn't for 10 weeks the swingvoters have more than enough time to dicipher the Bush lies and the true corruption of the Smearvets and their followers, including rightwing radio and people like you. Really creepy lowlifes trying to trick people into voting against their own best interests. Also, the SmearVet campaign has re-energized honest people in this country to step up to the plate and pitch in to rid out country of the pestilence which is Bush and his special interest gougers.

A veterans chat site.>>> MILINET: Sen. Pinocchio's Nose Grows Longer grunt.com The Washington Times, 19 August 2004, Inside Politics, By Jennifer Harper Tarnished silver? Uneven military service records have proved toxic to John Kerry's campaign for president, prompting him to post his full military record on his Web site (www.johnkerry.com) for critics to peruse. But one sharp-eyed Washington Times reader - a former B-52 pilot and U.S. Air Force colonel - isn't buying Mr. Kerry's pre-emptive strike. "I looked at that Web site and the first thing I looked at was Kerry's Silver Star citation. Guess what? It is for an action that took place in 1969, but it is signed by Secretary of the Navy John Lehman. Strangely, Lehman was secretary of the Navy from 1981 to 1987," he noted. "How could Kerry have received a citation from an official that would not be in office for 12 years? This was NOT just a case of providing a new copy of a citation for the office to replace one that was lost (destroyed/thrown over a wall). This effort by Lehman & Kerry actually changed Kerry's official Navy record, sometime in the 80s," he continued. "What other portions of his record did Kerry have Lehman sanitize or spiffy up? Evidently, Kerry did not think his original Silver Star made him look 'heroic' enough, so he provided 'suggested' words for a new certificate. This certainly calls Kerry's entire Navy record into question."
