amazingly, it's still up on the website. I clicked the link, fully expecting it to be gone and needing to resort to the wayback machine or something, but no, it's still there.

Isn't this, like, er, blatantly illegal or something?

not to mention the front of the page prominently features "Unfit for Command," the Swift Liars book!

I just sent about ten newspapers an email describing this unfair, and illegal, activity by the Republican party, with links to their site and this one.

Maybe it will get some attention; it is certainly a clear endorsement of the SBVfT.

BTW, anytime I see or type SBVfT I think of "LSMFT" which sucks, cuz I've just begun quitting smoking (haven't had one all of August). Those dame Swift Liars!

It in hypocritical how they call the Not-So-Swifties "non-partisan" in the first paragraph then have a blatantly partisan fund raiser for them not less than half a page down. Makes me ill.

Fearful left.. Hmmmm. Anyone smell hypocricy here? Looks like Bush is so bad that he needs people to make shit up for him, get him into office, and kiss huge ass to the religious just so he can catch up with Kerry - and it's still not working! I think someone forgot to put GW back in his cage in 2000 (and as a result, he had $477 billion worth of fun) - we'll have to do it for them this year.

I have a screen capture of Google "Fla. Reps Helping Swiftboat Attack Dogs Raise Funds", but do not know how to get it to you. I am not registered on this blog spot-I was simply surfing when I found your site. Great site by the way.

Do you want to direct me on how to get it to you ? Please post a reply.

None of you understand the true issue do you? The issue is....are the Swift Boat folks being directed by the Bush camp? The answer is no.

Are some Republicans supporting the Swift Boat folks? Yes. There is nothing wrong with that.

Have any of you ever worked on political campaigns? I have and this is nothing unusual. I worked on a campaign for governor, among others, and it isn't unusual to have people who work or support various causes working/volunteering for the local party. Happens all the time. Something like this happened on one campaign I was working on. An anti abortion group, not endorsed by the candidate, was handing out flyers for him at a football game. Some people tried to raise a stink about it......in the end it went nowhere because the campaign was not involved with that group. Same thing here....you can have a local party supporting a cause that isn't directed by or related to the candidate in any way. The people trying to make this some sort of "smoking gun" to show that the Bush campaign is directing the Swift Boat group are REALLY grasping at straws.

amazingly enough...the point has been missed entirely!
The rules involving the new election rules don't effect state and local political parties the same as the national parties. Both political parties operate differently at the State and Local levels.

There is nothing illegal in the Collier County Republicans promoting any organization. Anyone figured out how close the ties of Moveon.org to the Democratic party are?

Anonymous said...

I fail to see a smoking gun here. So some Republicans support both Bush AND the SBVT? So what? I bet you can find some Democrats that support both KERRY AND MoveOn.org. Big whoop. This is a complete non-issue, a grasping at imaginary straws.

Point is this office was helping them get funding. I would definately say thats coordination. Besides that 2 people working on Bush's campaign have already resigned becuse of two timing. One was a lawyer. I for one would like to see the recipt for his services and who it was paid for by (if at all)

If, as Republicans insist, there's no coordination between the Swifties and Bush Cheney Inc., that wouldn't make these ads OK. Nor are these ads -- as Bush himself insists -- the mere equivalent of, for instance, the MoveOn ad that criticizes the Bush deficit.

It's not the format (527-funded) that's atrocious. It's the content, which is exceedingly misleading, sometimes outright false.

And the Republicans themselves have tacitly acknowedged this: Notice how lately the Republicans have quietly stopped defending -- and even talking about -- the first ad. Now, they're all about the 2nd, in which Kerry testified against the war 30 years ago.

I wish that more people would point out and notice how the Republican rhetoric is now both anti-Establishment and anti-soldier.

Anti-Establishment: The Navy gave Kerry his medals. You don't get those from sending in box-tops. Somebody higher than you has to _award_ them, that's why they're called awards. Are they saying the Navy is wrong? Are they second-guessing the military they claim to support? If Kerry's awards weren't 100% deserved, because they now say that medals given without proper vetting, then it follows that a lot of other soldiers' weren't deserved either. By their logic, guess we better take them all away and start over.

There's an assumption here behind this willingness to question the military's determinations about Kerry: That the military is not fair in its decisions about honoring soldiers. That it's as full as who-you-know and favors as any civilian institution. Hmm ... not treating all enlistees the same?? Wonder where the Bushies got the idea that the military could work that way?

(But if that's what they think -- that the military shows favoritism -- why don't they just say so? After all, fixing such a problem would be a great way to support our troops.)

The ads are Anti-Establishment (#2): By the time Kerry was back and testifying, politicians on both sides were beginning to want the hell out of Vietnam. To be anti-Vietnam War at that point was beginning to be a mainstream position. Though a Kerry critic himself, Nixon campaigned -- and won! -- on getting out of Vietnam. What're they saying about Nixon?

The ads and their defenders are anti-soldier: Vietnam war critics, Kerry included, have used examples of atrocities committed as evidence of the misguided plans and policies of our country's leaders, which unfairly put American soldiers in terrible positions. No serious war critic has brought up American atrocities just to say "Hey! Our soldiers just plain nuts! Psychotic! Woo-hoo! Is that an ear?" And Kerry -- one of these soldiers himself -- was certainly not saying that, either. Every serious war critic that discusses American atrocities means these examples to bring shame to our leaders for bringing us into a shitty situation in the first place and providing no support in the second. To suggest that those who are honest about American abuse of the Vietnamese (or now, Abu Gharaib prisoners) are anti-soldier is a divide-and-conquer strategy. The war critic seeks to blame the leaders, but cowardly leaders quickly throw a young GI in front of themselves -- a human shield, honestly -- to block the flack. "Hey, you wanna criticize the war? Criticize this kid from Boone, Iowa! Support our troops!" Yeah, you support them so much you're willing to let them take the heat for your poor judgment. Willing to let them suffer psychologically for having killed on your behalf. And, by leaders dodging responsibility for leadership decisions, willing to let them bear or deny guilt that shouldn't be their own.

Finally, Bush's "who, me?" is assinine. He's the fucking president, the Republican nominee, the person on whose behalf these ads are produced and aired. He's their man. We're supposed to believe that an Administration head who puts so much stock in his own machismo, who insists that he'll "protect us," can't call off his own dogs?

There was this guy who believed very much in true love and decided to take his time to wait for his right girl to appear. He believed that there would definitely be someone special out there for him, but none came.
Every year at Christmas, his ex-girlfriend would return from Vancouver to look him up. He was aware that she still held some hope of re-kindling the past romance with him. He did not wish to mislead her in any way. nike shoxsSo he would always get one of his girl friends to pose as his steady whenever she came back. That went on for several years and each year, the guy would get a different girl to pose as his romantic interest. So whenever the ex-girlfriend came to visit him, she would be led into believing that it was all over between her and the guy. nike womens shoes The girl took all those rather well, often trying to casually tease him about his different girlfriends, or so, as it seemed! In fact, the girl often wept in secret whenever she saw him with another girl, but she was too proud to admit it. Still, every Christmas, she returned, hoping to re-kindle some form of romance. But each time, she returned to Vancouver feeling disappointed.
Finally she decided that she could not play that game any longer. puma mens shoes Therefore, she confronted him and professed that after all those years, he was still the only man that she had ever loved. mens puma shoesAlthough the guy knew of her feelings for him, he was still taken back and have never expected her to react that way. He always thought that she would slowly forget about him over time and come to terms that it was all over between them. nike shox Although he was touched by her undying love for him and wanted so much to accept her again, he remembered why he rejected her in the first place-she was not the one he wanted. nike 360 air maxSo he hardened his heart and turned her down cruelly. nike running shoesSince then, three years have passed and the girl never return anymore. They never even wrote to each other. NIKE air shoes The guy went on with his life..... still searching for the one but somehow deep inside him, he missed the girl.
On the Christmas of 1995, he went to his friend's party alone. "Hey, how come all alone this year? Where are all your girlfriends? What happened to that Vancouver babe who joins you every Christmas?", asked one of his friend.nike air max He felt warm and comforted by his friend's queries about her, still he just surged on.
Then, he came upon one of his many girlfriends whom he once requested to pose as his steady. He wanted so much to ignore her ..... not that he was impolite,wholesale nike shoes but because at that moment, he just didn't feel comfortable with those girlfriends anymore. nike shox torchIt was almost like he was being judged by them. The girl saw him and shouted across the floor for him. Unable to avoid her, he went up to acknowledge her.
"Hi......how are you? Enjoying the party?" the girl asked.
"Sure.....yeah!", he replied.
She was slightly tipsy..... must be from the whiskey on her hand.
