Newsflash: Politicians will BS.

I think the charges of cowardice, falsifying reports, and lying about actions are the serious charges that O'Neill makes. It turns out that they are all being proved to be a load of horse manure.

Uh oh, Bush, look out: here comes the backlash...

Poll: More Believe Bush Behind Attack Ads

NEW YORK - Americans increasingly believe President Bush (news - web sites)'s re-election campaign is behind the ads attacking Democrat John Kerry (news - web sites)'s Vietnam experience, a poll found.

Almost half in a poll taken this week say they think the president's campaign is behind the ads that try to undercut Kerry's medals for heroism while just over a third think the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth is an independent group, the National Annenberg Election Survey found.

The Swift boat ads, which ran in three swing states earlier this month, challenged Kerry's wartime service in Vietnam for which he received five medals.

The public's belief that Kerry did not earn his medals grew to 30 percent when the attack ads got widespread publicity on cable news networks. But that number has dropped to 24 percent now.
