Perhaps one reason that members of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth are having trouble getting officials to believe their stories of harassment (by HuffPost?), is that it is so well known that Swift Vets traffic exclusively in LIES.

p>Remember the story of the little boy who cried wolf so many times (told lies), that when he REALLY did have a problem, no one believed him, no matter how loud he shouted? Sounds like karma to me. Peace. No threat from me here, let's leave that to the Divine Power you so facilely profess to believe in. br> -- unsigned br> P.S. Is that Spectator , as in "advocate that others are sent to die while I sit in safety at home as a spectator"? /p>

It is very sad when people indulge in hate speech and threats, as against the Swift Boat veterans. I spent two years in Vietnam. In the military as in any organization there are ways of doing things. Standard operating procedures. One thing you do not do in the corporate world or in the military is put in charge some newly hired clerk with no experience. Matters not if his father is admiral, general or candlestick maker.

With John Kerry's rank and experience the only thing he would have been in charge of would have been the details of men burning human waste from the latrines. No ferrying CIA agents on secret missions.

p>I believe Kerry to be a liar. I spent eight times longer in Vietnam than him. So if he or his gaggle of spokespeople wish to talk about it, call me. I will set them straight. br> --
