Ed O'Reilly does not know if the SBVT are right or not?

[Mass]

It is one thing to ask questions (some which warrant to be asked) about Kerry's positions on various issues, but if he thinks that Kerry needs to clear his record on VietNam, he is no better than them. This should be a settled question when it comes to Democrats.

For Kerry, the public showdown with Pickens represents not only a belated engagement with old antagonists, but also an early strike against a Democratic primary opponent who signaled Monday that he welcomes the scrutiny of Kerry's military record initiated by the Swift Boat ad campaign in 2004.

"It goes to his credibility," said Ed O'Reilly, a Gloucester lawyer mounting a challenge to Kerry in the Democratic primary. "It needs to be cleared up."

1. Well, this confirms that O'Reilly is the ignorant a-hole I already thought he was n/t

2. More RW talking points from O' Reilly

Let me get that clear:
- discharge paper,
- not throwing his own medals
- too many vacations.

What more will the GOP candidate bring to the table?

Of course, he adds to that a few points that could make us think he is a leftie, but a leftie would not lower himself to use the RW talking points.

The sad thing is that somebody serious would be able to debate the points that we need to debate. Clearly, O' Reilly is not. In an interview for for a local alternative radio a few weeks ago, he was totally unable to bring any new idea on the table.

All John Kerry needs to do is release his original discharge papers showing whether or not he was honorably discharged or was given a general discharge. It is really that simple. Once he produces the honorable discharge at the time of his discharge, together with the "exit interview", all of this will be past us.
...
As I said, credibility is at issue and I want John Kerry to take the high road and show his credibility and show the Honorable Discharge Papers he must now have.
...
I also became disenchanted with John Kerry when I found out the medals he threw over the wall weren't even his own and that he had a video shoot of himself in Vietnam. As with 99% of all Vietnam Vet families, we have no home made movies.
...
In summary, I call upon Senator Kerry to release his original discharge papers and exit interview from the time he was discharged and stop bringing this issue up. He is the one who "keeps bringing it up and bringing it up".

We have a whole lot of work to do when he gets back from this vacation. In fact, we have a campaign going and I am anxious to debate him on our differences over Iraq, Health Care, Marriage Equality and Special Interest Influence in Washington. I am a true Massachusetts Democrat. He is not.

3. oreilly is a clown

im new from pittsburgh pa... and it appears to me as if edward o'reilly's effort to question someones military service is a disgrace. What a terrible clown... who is edward o'reilly...
no one. Probably someone up here that is going to try and run for office all the time until he gets elected... another camillian on the wall. John Kerry is a good senator and will win this by a landslide.
