Vietnam Veterans for Truth, aligned with the Swift Vets and POWs for Truth
Whose truth is it, anyway?

News Item: Vietnam Veterans for Truth, aligned with the Swift Vets and POWs for Truth, formerly known as the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, changes its name to Veterans for Truth.

And why would people who keep changing aliases lie to you?

1. The newest name will reflect the groups new mission
"swiftboating" John Murtha. And they will be using as many Iraq "vets" as they can scrape up to launch the dirty work. So they can't be the old Vietnam vets or Swift boat vets anymore.

2. Liars always create names for themselves that are opposite
of what they are.

3. Press still ignores Swift Admiral's 40 million-dollar contract...
Rear Admiral William Schachte once supported Kerry in public, calling him a hero. A couple years later, after his company is up for a huge governmenet contract, the crooked prick became a Smear Boat leader and changed his tune.

Swift Boat Veterans for Truth Connections with Republicans

For this...

DRUNKEN COKE-WHORE

4. I ran scumbag O'NEILL off of a radio interview
Edited on Thu Aug-03-06 08:58 AM by UTUSN
I called in, told him I was on an LST in Vietnam, meaning that I knew what the name of the game was. He said, "Oh, you guys on those LSTs were great." I said that what he and the Swiftbots were doing was disgraceful, that the requirements for Purple Hearts are very broad, can vary from a drop of blood shed under combat conditions all the way to death, that it was unconscionable for them to hound an authentic veteran the way they were doing to KERRY.

He couldn't get away fast enough. He told the radio host that he had an appointment to get to (suddenly) and skedaddled. Too bad the dearth of knowledgeable media fueled the Swiftbots. Actually, the Swiftbots COUNTED on civilian ignorance.
