Coming Sunday in D.C.: "Kerry Lied ...While Good Men Died"

A Vietnam veterans group, including the Swifties I think, is having a rally this Sun. at Upper Senate Park in Washington.

Good theme: "Kerry Lied ...While Good Men Died"

"John Kerry told the world we were war criminals who raped, tortured and murdered in Vietnam," says the sponsor. "Now, 33 years later, we will tell America the truth."

funny considering most of the swifties were on Kerry's side way back in 1996. But hey I guess if I got paid by a political party to tell lies about someone I once supported...gotta love the RNC


KERRY/EDWARDS 2004!

Great...

Perhaps they should also run an ad:
"Swiftboat Vets Lied... To Tarnish the Reputation of a Good Man"

So they are objecting to Kerry's news conference decades ago were he talked on behalf of Vetienam Vets Aginst the War? I don't believe that anything he said was a lie... there was war criminals that did rape, did torture, and murder people in Vietnam (hello My Lia Massacre?) - horrible things are commited by solidiers in wartime; war tends to bring out the worst of human nature... I believe that Kerry was objecting to the lack of legal action taken against US personnel that had commited crimes - which was fostering an enviroment that was encouraging further crimes because of this tacit acceptance through non-prosectution.

Do you even know what he said following the war?? What is it that he said that's a lie?

And the swiftboat veterans may be Democrats and may be Republicans, and they are definitely against Kerry in regards to his war service, but the group is not run by the RNC.
