The Dems got swiftboaters too.

Radar · 09-07-2008, 01:30 AM

Not really. The swiftboaters were lying. These people aren't.

Okay, register Radar not as LIB on the voter registration lists, but as DEM (toetag).

Wasn't it T. Boone Pickens who put up one million dollars, kept in a special account, as an award for anyone who could prove Unfit For Command was either lying or in error... and that money is still there since '04, every cent? I presume the account is interest bearing.

If you really had the wherewithal to prove your silly notion, Paul, you could make a million off of Pickens. I don't think this will happen. You shall instead mentally masturbate, and post the occasional ejaculation here.

Sorta. When Kerry provided proof of the lies, Pickens reneged. So the money is still there, but it's no longer an award for proving the lies. It's just an embarrassing reminder of the swift boaters' dishonesty.

Of course they aren't lying - they agree with you.

smoothmoniker · 09-07-2008, 09:54 PM

This is a sad old man on a crusade of misinformation. These charges have been raised before, and laid to rest.

Radar · 09-07-2008, 10:27 PM

Wrong. They have not been laid to rest. They have been proven to be factual.

Yeah, I think I accused UT of using Radar as a sock puppet after leaving the party. Sorry.

He convinces noone, but alienates many.

I'm too lazy to follow all those links and watch all those vids at work.
Anyone care to tell me what the difference between the various accounts of what happened are?

Big Sarge · 09-08-2008, 08:32 PM

Did any of you read the text of these "documents" provided by Task Force Omega, INC (what a name!)? Have any of you ever heard an American use terms like, "They flew very fast, very strongly." Man read these transcripts. Do you honestly believe a US Naval Academy graduate would use that sentence structure? Also, much of this information was released through Cuba. Lord Radar, you are really grasping for straws

classicman · 09-08-2008, 08:37 PM

Sorry Zen, but that's a matter of perspective. Then again I'm sure the poster would be glad to tell you what to think.
