"DRUDGE LOW LIFE

He just cut off a woman talking about the discharge saying that he's had enough about TANG and the Swifties. Vietnam is over.

What an a** Mad"

1. I have a feeling they'll be back again in three or so years

But for now they're so desperate that they're buying 30 minute paid programming spots on PAX stations and other networks. :eyes:

2. I knew right from the start what they were..

They were/are a bunch of 50 60 somethings with boring lives. They got a chance for a "fun reunion".....fly first class, stay in cool hotels, get interviews on TV..and they get to write a book and make a movie..

All they have to do to get all this..and a nifty expense account to boot..Lie about a rich guy they never even knew..

so now it's back to the grind..back to the nagging wives..the money-grubbiing teenagers/twenty-somethings..

back to their boring jobs..

but they had a hell of a ride...tarnishing a hero's reputation is "harrrd work".. and for what?? so a rich-kid slacker who was too chicken to go to Viet Nam, can cheat his way into another job that someone else will do for him...

3. One of them got a great deal on a house in Texas.

That was the price tag he put on his soul. Douche bag.

4. I would love to see their cell phone records and bank records

for the time before and after their stint with the GOP..

Big money changed hands..and we KNOW it..

5. They were all abuzz in Freeperville earlier

about a report on the SmearBoats website that word came from on high to cease and desist on the issue of the "discharge."

I was just about to link to it (had it bookmarked), but the thread has been pulled. At any rate, as much as they tried to deny it, the W.H. was pulling the strings of the whole SmearBoat campaign, and now, for some strange reason (maybe a new strategy for tomorrow), they're calling off the dogs.

6. maybe the lie was too easy to disprove, for the Bush people to

be comfortable with it right before the election.

7. Could be

but the dumb Freeps just don't want to let it go and are still posting about it, even suggesting that if Kerry is elected, it could be grounds for impeachment. LOL

8. It's just sad that Nixon isn't alive to see this

Considering how much he personally concerned himself with destroying Kerry's future political career in the early days.
