Who Was The SwiftBoat Vet Who Make These Accusations?

[On the Road]

-- Charged John McCain with being a brainwashed agent of the North Vietnamese.
-- Charged George Bush Sr. with being a war criminal.
-- Doctored a photo of John Kerry to make it appear that he was shooting an American MIA and tried to pass it off as real.

I clearly remember reading these charges about one of the swifties here on DU. Was it Thurlow?

1. Ted Sampley maybe? n/t

[blm]

2. That was Ted Sampley.

Another crazy stooge who thinks nothing of lying to line his own pockets.

3. How Come This Hasn't Been More Widely Publicized?

I mean, I don't expect the networks to rush to Kerry's defense. But wouldn't the Kerry campaign or other sympathetic Dems want to discredit the vets? Or could it be this is part of Kerry's counterattack?

5. Ted Sampley is not a swift boat vet. He's just a nutcase veteran who made

missing soldiers a money making venture. He hates Kerry and McCain for working towards the normalization of relations with Vietnam. He can't very well make big dollar mercenary runs into Vietnam if it's so easy to go there yourself.

4. He's part of the fake POW/MIA crowd

They were pissed at McCain and Kerry for going to Vietnam to search for POW's and not finding any, and then re-opening relations.

Charletan who has preyed on families' hopes.

6. Is He One of the Guys in the Swiftboat TV Ads?

Or something like that, he's not a swift boat vet.

8. Yelp Sampley-He was on with O'Neill several weeks ago slamming Kerry

When Corsi got bagged with all his KKK comments on Free Republic, O'Neill dumped Corsi and got Sampley to do a show with him that night. It was Hardball with Chris Matthews.

Well Criminal Record Sampley started in with all his lunatic Free Republic style BS on Kerry, and Lawrence O’Donnell who is an MSNBC Senior Political Analyst also on the show just tore Sampley apart. It was beautiful, would of made any prosecutor proud!!

O'Donnell brought all the McCain garbage out that Sampley pulled, the fight he started at McCain's office Sampley and got arrested over, the altered photos, Sampley lying about POW's still missing in Nam just so he could milk people for money, I mean the whole nine yards.

Sampley started whining that he came on the show to talk about Kerry, and Lawrence said no we are talking about you Ted, because if you have no credibility, why should we be listening to anything you have to offer on the merits of another person.

Sampley starts whinning again and lying about Kerry and Lawerence hit him again for proof. You have no credibility Ted so where is your hard verifable proof, let us see it. etc. etc.

Bottom line, ONeill never had him on with him again. So Sampley is in the closet with Corsi.
