How come Kerry service records are not big news anymore on cable?
It was the top story since Sunday on every channel until he released them but the news whores don't appear to want to discuss it anymore. I wonder why? What happened? Perhaps we should write some letters to the fu*kers and ask them why they lost interest in the story all of a sudden like?

1. Cause they reflect
well on Kerry. If they hadn't they would be plastered 24/7.

Blitzer the bribe-taking whore can't support his Republican High Lords with a story that puts Kerry in a positive light.

Same for the no-minds on Fox & Fiends.

3.  I was just channel surfing by Faux News, and they said..
"Kerry released his military records, but what took him so long?" I am going to have to delete fox news right off my tv.

5. LOL
They can't criticize the records, so they have to criticize the timing.

Dunderheads...

4. The AP story on Kerry's valor & praise was on pg 15 of Pitt P-G
The whores on TV never mention the Silver Star and Bronze Star with "V".

6. because
Kerry's records have real substance and merits you can take to the bank. Glwoing letters from his COs, recorded combat record, actual time in a combat area commanding a group of Navy men patrolling the Mekong River..I''d STFU too if I were one f the BFEE media whores who were demanding for these records to be made public.

I personally let other people say,"Zech is a hard worker who gives 100 percent on the job everyday", I don't go around beating my chest like * or Rummy. If you do your job well, people will notice and tell others how good you're doing. Kerry didn't go around saying,"yeah, I bagged 20 KIAs in Nam, I'm a badass!" :eyes: He simply let the record reveal that.

9. yesterday, judy woodruf said to someone she was interviewing, .....
and I paraphrase, "Kerry's service record shows that for his first purple heart, he was hit by shrapnel but that is all it says. It doesn't say more than that. Doesn't that raise suspicions??"

WOW! She sure was working hard to make something out of that!

10. Can't wait for the Kerry-hating Boston Globe to check in
Or the neo-con rag, the Herald.

13. When Clark released his glowing records, Hugh Shelton was news
The ONLY news on Clark. You are now watching the replay in the general election of what they did in the primary. Hopefully a few of you understanding you've been taken then.

against the media and Party Politics.

Watching such a great American be smeared was one of the worst and most helpless feelings I have ever had.

By the way, I love this smiley:

16. Because the repubs may have determined
its not to their advantage, so they got the word out to the cable news industry.

18. I just heard on CNN
They're reporting it.

But what we really need to do is put together an email exposing the guy who started this and the fact that he did the same thing to McCain and Cleland.
