Title: The Swifties are at it Again!
Post by: Flatbar on March 14, 2007, 03:40:08 PM
Last time these creatons went after Kerry for his service and many here accepted their vile spew as truth. Now they're going after McCain calling him a communist apologist, that's just the beginning. Expect more lies and false testimony from these scumbags as they spread their crap all over the media.

http://thehill.com/campaign-2008/mccain-draws-heat-from-vet-group-club-for-growth-2007-03-13.html


The question is, will the media roll over and comply like they did last time.

I'll bet that Romney has his hands in this.

Now it's your turn righties to reap this foul harvest.

I don't like or trust McCain, because he's to wishy-washy,  but to question his honor of duty I think is wrong.

He's like a double edged sword, you never know which way he's going to cut.

Sampley has compared McCain to the brainwashed “Manchurian Candidate” and is highly critical of McCain’s actions after his return home from Vietnam. Sampley calls himself “the one McCain hates most” and has a long history of battling McCain, including a conviction in the early 1990s for assaulting McCain aide Mark Salter.

I didnt need to swifters to tell me kerry was an absolute ass.  McCain warts and all, is in no way shape or form the failure of a human being that kerry is.

Umm, Flatbar....  McCain is a communistic apologist.  Or as we refer to them around here as RINO.  Republican In Name Only.  It's a shame that the arizonians can't figure it out and the republican party is too scared to kick his bellybutton out of the group.  



Also, to call anything Kerry has done "Service" is a joke itself.

Lasersailor, can you provide some data to backup your claim?  

As I recall, there was some confusion a few weeks ago when you were making some pretty grandiose statements about the Libertarian party that stemmed from a misunderstanding on your part, I'd be remiss if I didn't make sure the same wasn't true here.

What proof do you have that he's a communist apologist?  Or are you calling him one for supporting normalizing relations with Vietnam?  And I suppose you also think he's a KGB sleeper agent like those two twits do?

As for Kerry, if he had been a Republican, you'd be backing him up 100%.

You claim that I'd back up Kerry if he was a republican, while the first paragraph is me bashing a republican (INO).

Arizonians do know about McCain's faults.  IIRC, most of the tacoheads here denounced them rather than supported him... I think it might be NUKE that mentionned specific facts.
It might have been the 2nd or immigration, I don't remember.

Yes we know about Mccain's faults.  He started his career as a staunch conservative but as more and more illegals populated Arizona, Mccain moved accordingly left.  Mccain is a politician, not a statesman.  He still calls himself republican but he is a long way from being conservative.   Mccain has grown verfy soft on immigration.  As near as I can tell it is in an effort to garner some of the hispanic votes in AZ.

Mccain has sold his base out.  were he to run for President, I doubt he would  carry AZ.  Then there's the whole Mccain-Feingold debacle.

second... flatbars link has nothing to do with the swift boat guys..  So far as I know, they have said nothing about mccain..

I supported the Swiftboat Veterans telling the truth about Kerry.  Too this day I still believe that Kerry submitted false testimony on Purpla Heart Awards and other awards.  Kerry is a slime ball politician beyond the grip of morality.

As Lazs pointed out, the Swiftboat Veterans for the Truth are not involved in it.  It is just another left wing whine as usual.

Disliking McCain is fine, disagreeing with his stance on the issues is fine, I'm still waiting for Lasersailer to back up the 'communist apologist' description, he's the only one here who's embraced that bit from the story.

The problem with McCain is no one is really sure how he is going to vote on issues (except maybe Iraq) and that scares both the Left and the Right.

I compare him to Liberman, unfortunately, as they both vote moderate once in a while and then their 'own team' doesn't like them.

Only ones that are trusted by their own Party as those that vote the Party line. The trick is to make yourself look moderate while not alienating your own Party, one thing Hillary for example, has completely failed at recently.

You take on Mcclain is short sighted, no offense.  His speeches and posturing have moved more to the left as his career has progressed.  He wants to get re-elected more  than he cares for doing the right thing for his country.

In 2004, the group made a splash by publicizing pictures of Kerry at anti-war protests in the 1970s, including one showing him several rows behind Jane Fonda. It claims credit for originating many of the attacks used by Swift Boat Veterans for Truth later in the campaign.

Airscrew you can spin it all you want, but if you follow the roots of these 527s they all lead back to the office of Reichsminister Rove.  They slandered McCain in 2000, Kerry in 2004, and it looks like more of the same in 2008.

but now that you bring it up, show me how Rove is related to "527"

Yes I read the quotes.  What Laz, Mini, and Rip and now I are trying to say specifically is that Flatbar was incorrect in saying that the "Swifties" or aka Swift Boat Veterans for Truth were attacking McCain.  
The Swifties are not attacking John McCain.  Vietnam Veterans Against John McCain are.  The Vietnam Veterans Against John McCain are not related to the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.  
The Vietnam Veterans Against John McCain  are related to the Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry.  Ran by the same people.  
The only apparent relationship between Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry / John McCain  and the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth , is that the "Swifties" used material that was gathered by VVAJK and they quite possible shared information.

Am I some how confusing you?
