Swiftboat,



Over 250 veterans who served in a squad of swift-boats with John Kerry say Kerry's campaign promotion of his war-veteran status is false.
Only 13, at last count, stand by Kerry's version of events.
Let the record speak for itself.

The doctor who treated one of Kerry's wounds said it was self-inflicted by a grenade that Kerry tossed, and so reported. When Kerry's commanding officer wouldn't recommend him for a Purple Heart medal for the incident, Kerry went behind the officer's back, and asked another officer to submit him for a Purple Heart regarding the injury.

Kerry's received another medal for stabbing a retreating wounded soldier in the back.

Kerry unquestionably turned on his country and his fellow Vietnam veterans when he came home, with extremely inflammatory rhetoric.
And Kerry made such unsubstantaited wild allegations against American soldiers in Vietnam (alleged raping of women, shooting farm animals for sport, etc., that he said for years he saw firsthand and then later admitted he never saw, that it was, at best, just hearsay), to the point that even the V V A W (Vietnam Veterans Against the War) distanced themselves from Kerry and his war-views.
The head of the V V A W at that time described Kerry as an opportunist, who told people what they wanted to hear.

Let the record speak for itself.

Vince Foster,



I've made very clear that the evidence does not prove this allegation, and have repeatedly mentioned my belief in Clinton's involvement in his death within this context.

There is no assumption of this having been proven, by me or anyone else here.
I always mention this in the full context that while I believe Clinton to be involved in Foster's death, that is not proven, and probably never will be.

Osama bin Laden wants the Democrats to win,



Osama Bin Ladin flatout said this in one of his released statements to the Al Jazeera arab media.

And Iraqi resistance and other dictators around the world voiced similar elation when Democrats won control of the House and Senate this past November.

Willie Horton,



The convicted murderer who was released from life imprisonment on furlough in Massachussetts by then-governor Michael Dukakis, who was then enabled by Dukakis' liberal attitude and actions, to murder again.

Please demonstrate to me where mention of this fact in the 1988 presidential campaign was innaccurate or a smear. It is absolute fact.

Creep bugging the Democrats.



?????

This is not a smear by Republicans of Democrats with false allegations.

It is mention of Republicans clearly committing a crime, hiring five Cuban nationals and ex-CIA agents to bug the DNC offices at the Watergate Hotel in Washington D.C. in June 1972.

And on this point I think we can agree, these were Republicans guilty of a crime. But the crime was not smear and false allegations.

I'd also add that Republicans in Congress in 1974 joined Democrats in investigating this burglary and related corruption, up to and including voting to impeach a Republican president.
In the same situation in 1998, Democrats stonewalled and prevented a clearly guilty Bill Clinton from paying a price for his crimes. Which makes me laugh contemptuously when Democrats talk about the Republican "culture of corruption", and posture about Mark Foley or whoever.

Republicans hold their own accountable for crimes.

Democrats either look the other way, or blame pursuit of justice against Democrats on Republican "mean-spiritedness".
Despite the clear guilt of their fellow Democrats, Dems pursue the blame-game over true justice.

  • from Do Racists have lower IQ's...

    Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.

    EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
