Lords of Death Forums Lords of Death Forums LoD General Discussion Anyone else seen this newest commericial on Kerry?

Bunch of Vietnam vets who were with Kerry when he earned his bronze star. They call him out, saying he isn't telling the story the way it happened..
Furthermore, the commercial is funded by the veterans themselves versus the GOP, however their opinions seem extremely biased.
Thoughts and opinions people?!?!

Yeah, Ive also seen how McCain has stood up for Kerry and said the thing is a bunch of bullshit. He references how the Bush campaign did the same thing to him in the 2000 primaries. Of the 13 guys in that add who claim that they served "with" Kerry, not one actually served under his command. The guys who served under him have been backing him up though. Furthermore, Rassman, the man who Kerry rescued backs Kerry up 100%, he even recommended Kerry be given the bronze star. You can read about the whole thing here NO GoP money whatsoever..... right.... And if thats too much for you to click .... I'll just make it easier .... "Kerry's campaign also released material noting that the group has gotten some financial backing from Bob Perry, a homebuilder in Houston, Texas, who is a contributor to the Republican Party." oh and... " Swift Boat Veterans for Truth is registered as an independent "527" committee, named for the section of the federal tax code under which similar groups are organized. Its contributors include several major Republican donors." I think the add should be pulled, they raised a big stink about ad's for Fahrenheit 9/11 featuring Bush. I think the only adds we should be seeing now regarding each candidate should come from the campaigns themselves, that way we can at least identify whos spewing the bullshit and hold them accountable.

All i can say is Waaaaaaaa to the Democrats.....,,,, as far as i am concerned its fair game. Did Michael Moore give any money or support to the democratic party??????? He was at every dam convention and get together. He made a documentary/opinionmentary about bush. This is the exact same situation. TV/ Commercial is not far from the movie industry so why are the democtrats crying? Instead they are gonna cry about where the money came from and try to make a republican responsible, so they can claim foul.
Yet why do the Democrats still cry?????


OHhhhhh Thats why....... <img src="/~stretch/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The nurse thing definately puts the cherry on top! alskjdflk <img src="/~stretch/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

This ad is basically a blatant lie. You have a handful of veterans claiming, 'they served with John Kerry' and then bad mouthing him, when the reality was none of these men ever worked remotely near Kerry. In fact, the only real way they 'served' together is by fighting the same war and possibly being in Vietnam at the same time.

Were you there? Wasnt Fahrenheit 9/11 a load of bullshit? Yes there were over 59 deceitful/misleading or just straight lies in that movie. This is no different if in fact it is a lie.
If this commercial add is a lie, well thats only 1, at least it wasnt a movie about Kerry and his life leading up to this point.
You follow a person with a camera for 24 hours, i guarantee you could take much of what this person said out of context and make him look like a piece of shit. This is exactly what Moore did to Bush. Whether or not these clips, movies, adds are defimation of character in the libel sense, Moore took it to the next level, being that i say the gloves are off and we should let them flame away.

These guys actually were with Kerry? How could all these ppl lie about serving with him and ppl not know? I think this is your way of trying to spin the situation. I've also heard reports that Kerry went back to the shore of one of the beaches and re-created some battle that happened, but wasn't happening, and they said it was total bs.
