Swift Boat veterans lawyers call Kerry a liar

Recently Kerry tired to muzzle the press by issuing a scare letter from his lawyers. Notice the tone of the letter, it says your "station may freely refuse this advertisement". Not much of a threat.

Now, the Swift Boat veterans have issued their own letter from their lawyers. The letter lays out the Swift Boat veterans proof that back up their claim that Kerry lied about much of his Viet Nam service.

It's interesting to note that Kerry instead of defending his record, is trying to smear the Swift Boat veterans and muzzle the press.

One of the first attempts at smearing the SBVT veterans was made by Michael Kranishwriting in the Boston Globe. Kranish claimed one of the vets retracted his story. Problem is that vet denied he retracted his statment and accused Kranish of misquoting him. Here is a site with a good round up of this story with plenty of links.

Why would Kranish try and smear the SBVT veterans? Well it just might have something to do with Kranish authoring Kerry's official campaign biography. Even this story itself is riddled with scandal. Just follow the links to see this shifting story.

Now it seems the Democrats plan an all out assault attacking the SBVT veterans character and background.

The Democrat National Committee has prepared a full-scale assault against the Vietnam Veterans for Truth to draw their character and veracity into question, according to one anonymous source inside the DNC. The campaign of character assassination is scheduled to coincide with the release of the book Unfit for Command which reveals inconvenient facts for the Kerry campaign.

“We have prepared what we call ‘Brown Books’ that contain damaging military records, personal credit histories, medical histories, psychiatric histories, divorce records, you name it,” our source told us. "We've got the goods on the Veterans who oppose Kerry."

If you can't kill the message, kill the messenger seems to be the Democrats tactic. A tactic I predict that will backfire badly for Kerry.
