So why is Kerry acting like a guilty man by attempting to silence the Swift Boat vets?
Why? Haven't you heard of "The Big Lie?" Hitler and his nazis used it to their advantage to gain power in pre-WW II Germany. Joseph Goebbels, Hitler's Minister of Propaganda was a master of the Big Lie. In fact, he is quoted as saying, "If you tell a lie, tell a big one."
It works like this -- Someone, or some group, with an agenda publishes a lie that supports their point. The bigger the lie, the better, and they cook up enough pages of bogus background story to make it sound credible. In this day of the Intenet, they might even
put up a website like this one.
Then others with a similar agenda, who want more than anything to believe the lie, repeat it. They may even quote from the website, claiming it as proof of their bogus assertions. Some of these idiots even cut and paste entire pages from such garbage sources to discussions on Internet Forums, hoping against reality that enough people will be taken in by the sheer volume of bullsh8 that they might start to doubt reality.
The most important defense against The Big Lie is to use all legal means to quickly and credibly publicize the truth, including credible witnesses and documentation.
Of course, since we're bright enough to be geeks on a computer related forum like AT, nobody on
this forum would be stupid enough to post that kind of crap, let alone fall for it if anyone else was dumb enough to post it.

They (the democrats) want us to fail as long as President Bush is in charge...
It has nothing to do with "wanting." Bush is already a failure.
Winning elections is all that counts.
If you honestly believe winning elections is all that counts, you don't understand anything about the United States of America, and your opinion simply counts for nothing.
