This Should Clear Up Any Remaining Doubts that Rove Was Behind the Swifties
First this:
President Bush's top political adviser, Karl Rove, said Wednesday that the
Bush-Cheney campaign is planning some October "surprises" for challengers John
Kerry and John Edwards."We've got a couple of surprises that we intend to
spring," Rove told ABC radio host Sean Hannity while explaining that he intends
to wage an aggressive campaign no matter what the polls show.
Now this:
Up to 62 television stations owned or managed by the Sinclair Broadcasting
Group - many of them in swing states - will show a documentary highly critical
of Senator John Kerry's antiwar activities 30 years ago within the
next two weeks, Sinclair officials said yesterday.
Those officials said the documentary would pre-empt regular night
programming, including prime time, on its stations, which include affiliates for
all six of the major broadcast networks in the swing states of Florida, Ohio,
Wisconsin, Nevada and Pennsylvania.
Called "Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal," the documentary features
Vietnam veterans who say their Vietnamese captors used Mr. Kerry's 1971 Senate
testimony, in which he recounted stories of American atrocities, prolonging
their torture and betraying and demoralizing them. Similar claims were made by
prisoners of war in a commercial that ran during the summer from an anti-Kerry
veterans group, Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.
