Something we can actually do???
The more I think about it, the more I think some of the political talking heads are right: This Swift Boat Controversy is good for the bu$h campaign, so they aim to keep it in front of the public. As long as it is in the limelight, the less Kerry can concentrate on the Issues. It is on the Issues that Kerry is strong.

Why don't we call and email all of the local and national media, telling them "Enough"...we want to hear about the issues! We are tired of the controversy! We are quick to fire off emails and phone calls when a media outlet does something we don't like, why don't we try to quash this controversy so Kerry can get back to the message that will make him President?

If you like this idea, please keep it kicked.

2. absolutely freaking right!
I was so teed off about this yesterday. I will contact media outlets and tell them to stop wasting my time with this worn out crap. I want answers on issues, not Vietnam. Even my Uncle who is a Vietnam Vet thinks this is a total farce and a time-waster. Let's discuss the national debt, and the economy that is "turning the corner."

This medals etc. conversation is a gigantic GOP diversionary tactic to keep eyeballs from reading about the important things.

It's still the economy, stupid!
