Swift Boater's Case Against Kerry "Dismissed With Prejudice" By Judge
Case Dismissed: Judge Dismisses Entire Sherwood vs. Kerry, “Stolen Honor” Lawsuit
Posted by Pamela Leavey
August 4th, 2006 @ 11:00 am

Breaking News: The Democratic Daily has just received word that Sherwood vs. Kerry has been dismissed…

Yesterday, in a true victory against the “Swift Boat Veterans for Truth,” the Federal Court in Philadelphia issued a decision dismissing a defamation case brought by Carlton Sherwood against Senator John Kerry and his Pennsylvania campaign manager Anthony Podesta.

The complaint had alleged that the Democratic National Committee and others sought to prevent Sherwood during the 2004 Presidential Campaign from distributing a movie entitled “Stolen Honor,” which dealt with Sherwood’s views of the Senator’s conduct after his military service during the Vietnam War.

The case was “dismissed with prejudice.” A “dismissed with prejudice” ruling means that Carlton Sherwood can never bring another lawsuit against John Kerry on this topic again.

By then it will be clear to all that the rule of law no longer exists and is not being followed by our overlords.

Then, you can kill them all.

(Edit: It's a joke! A joke!)

20. Far from ignoring, The MSM aired and fanned that scurrilous smearvet
sh#@ day after day in the summer of 04. I will NEVER forget what they did.

What I would give to see this court decision shoved by Kerry down a whole cadre of RNC and MSM newsroom staff throats on live network. They should literally be made to eat it until they gag. Every column inch of it.

They knew the pure excrement they were smearing around, even as they were doing it. Again and again.
