I wonder who pulled the permit for them?

Maybe we can get enough Kerry supporters out there and outnumber them again.

Check you local GOP headquarters for flyers. You never know what else you might find.

2. If they actually wanted to be truthful (HAHAHA)
They would say that Kerry told the truth, and saved lives. By telling people about the reality of the war he prevented the war from being continued for much longer. As Kerry said himself "This group doesn't tell the truth. They're not interested in the truth."

Bunch of scumbags.

8. This was the crowd for their rally last Saturday


As you can see, almost all of the people in the audience are Kerry Supporters.

6. Look at that list of "Founders" names...
where is John O'Neil?

I thought he was the founder of the group?

Has there been a coup within the group?

9. This is a different group
that is associated with the Swift Boat Vets.

They were one of the groups listed on the Pro USA Rally flyer.

I would like to know who these three guys are. Does anybody have anything on them?

10. they kicked him out because he lied about his medals
He said he got a concussion from a blast that hit near him. Actually, he just got motion sickness from riding Kerry's ass for the past 30 years.

11. Looks like Sampley's another piece of work
Statement of Senator John McCain

"I strongly caution reporters who may be contacted by or are interested in Mr. Ted Sampley and the various organizations he claims to represent, and his opinions on the subject of Senator Kerry, or any subject for that matter, to investigate thoroughly Mr. Sampley's background and history of spreading outrageous slander and other disreputable behavior before inadvertently lending him or his allegations any credibility."

"I am well familiar with Mr. Sampley, and I know him to be one of the most despicable people I have ever had the misfortune to encounter. I consider him a fraud who preys on the hopes of family members of missing servicemen for his own profit. He is dishonorable, an enemy of the truth, and despite his claims, he does not speak for or represent the views of all but a few veterans. The many veterans I know would think it a disgrace to be considered a comrade or supporter of Ted Sampley."

13. The GOP Patriotism
The Flag

Anybody raise the flag?

Nobody burn the flag.

Everybody wave the flag!

Somebody drape the flag --

And hide the body


My thoughts for today.

15. good news...
Maybe the media will tie Ted Sampley to the Smear Boat Frags. That man is a con artist and general scumbag. Even McCain tried to punch him out.
