like i was right about that.

Do they have a problem with the truth... earlier it was threats of

Free speech? Give me a break.

The Kerry Kampaign is imploding, they do not want the truth to be read,
much like they do not want the focus to be on his Senatorial record.

The hypocrisy of the left is amazing. They can dish it out but can't take
it.

That certainly seems to be the case.

"...all units came under intense automatic weapons and small arms
fire from an entrenched enemy force less than fifty feet away.
Unhesitatingly Lieutenant (junior grade) KERRY ordered his boat
to attack as all units opened fire and beached directly in front
of the enemy ambushers. This daring and courageous tactic
surprised
the enemy and succeeded in routing a score of enemy soldiers."
