According to this piece of work (PDF file) on Kerry’s sight, connections between Bush and the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth are proven due to things such as:
Bob J. Perry gave money to both the Swift Vets and the Bush campaign
Texas Lazar was a law partner with O’Neill and a Lieutenant Governor candidate with Bush
Merrie Spaeth who is a Swift Vet PR consultant is also a long-time Bush supporter
Kay Bailey Hutchinson is a friend of Merrie Spaeth
Yeah, I’m convinced. Man, the Kerry campaign must really be getting desparate to try and float this kind of stuff.
Hat Tip: Jessica
UPDATE: I just noticed a few more things. Like this:
Minnesota RNC
– Official Republican website in Battleground State; Coordinated linkage with Swift Boat website—provide direct link to Swift Boat commercial.Hey, I provided a link for their commercial, and I’m a Bush supporter. Why am I not on the list? I should send them an email. Also, they’re listing the Swifties as Swift Boat Veterans for Bush. Sly, I didn’t even notice it the first time I looked at it.
