Powerline is highlighting a letter written to Nightline in regards to the questioning of VietCong and John Kerry's attack on the village without EVER talking with any of the Swift Boat Vets and then taking the word of Viet Cong over honored Veterans involved. Oh - well of course these were Veterans who are part of the Swift Boat Vets so they have no credibility when the Viet Cong do!!! Here's an excerpt but go read the whole letter.

To say that Nightline found "the one group" who hasn't weighed in on Kerry's Vietnam service is total BS. While we've all heard ad nauseam from the 9-11 families and have heard the press talk about how Bush has offended them by using the images of 9-11, WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN OF VIETNAM, who had to endure John Kerry's legacy of lies, both then and now, during this campaign?

I am one of those children, and had to endure teachers who censured me, people who told me (as a small child) "YOUR DADDY DESERVED TO DIE IN VIETNAM -- HE WAS A BABYKILLER". We watched our moms, young widows who were afraid to say what happened to their husbands because they never knew whether they might get sympathy or hate. All because John Kerry testified before the world that our fathers committed atrocities at every level of command. His lies based on hear-say hurt ALL of us, for years and years, and yet who's interviewed us?|||109810343681482279|||Speaking truth to (diminishing) power
