Kerry Speaks Out

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&e=2&u=/ap/20040819/ap_on_el_pr/kerry_war

Kerry spoke out against the Bush Campaign for not condemning the "Swift Boat Vets for Truth" smear ads against his millitary record and awards received during service.

It is ironic that one of the spokesmen for the SBVFT received his own award in the same conflict that won Kerry his bronze star: he was commanding another swift boat.
He won his medal for coming to the aid of another swift boat while under constant enemy fire, though he claims to have "never heard a shot"

The Kerry campaign is running a counter ad featuring the man Kerry saved, who remembers the enemy fire clearly.

Bush's campaign said they "have never questioned Kerry's millitary record or his awards" but they still do not speak out to condemn the SBVFT ads.

Kerry hit the nail on the head when he said that the Bush campaign is letting them do his dirty work.
