Swift Boat Veterans for Truth

Republicans are seeking to suppress the voter turnout among youth, minorities and poor people. If Republicans can prevent enough Democrats from casting ballots, McCain could win the election.

As November 4th approaches, voters are determining if they want to be an integral part of history, or on the wrong side of it. Forces are at work beyond description, like some divine hand pushing us forward.

In just a few years Pickens has moved from being a totally partisan political animal to a man who is looking for the partial truth in the disparate views of a variety of people.

It's more reasonable to ask McCain about Corsi than it was to ask Obama about Farrakhan. The Democrat and the Nation of Islam leader are not linked. Corsi and the GOP are.

Corsi has been referred to as a "conservative gadfly." But the word "gadfly" implies someone who is well intentioned and who seeks to provoke thought in others, not a lying, white supremacist, propagandist.

These books destroy civic debate on purpose -- and are fundamentally at odds with democracy. The goal of Corsi's project is not to discuss facts -- it is to destroy the very possibility of discussion.

Jerome Corsi, Swift Boater and author of the newly released Obama Nation, appeared on Larry King Live last night to defend his smear-plagued, yet best...

A military commander tested in wartime, a Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, a Secretary of State, a Vice President Powell would strengthen Obama's candidacy more deeply and more consummately than any other American.

Corsi's biggest claim to fame is co-authoring the infamous Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. Judging from the shrill and paranoid tone of his latest effort I get the impression Obama has really scared these guys this time.

Being unhappy with the bias of The New York Times is like being shocked at the graphic nature of Hustler Magazine.

The "Swift Boaters" from 2004 are back at it. A group of top Republican contributors who financially fueled the famous "Swift Boat" campaign ads that...

More than any other act of rank hypocrisy that we have grown accustomed to expect from McCain his recent embrace of the Swiftboaters to help his presidential campaign is beyond astonishing.

As the media fanned flames in the direction of General Wesley Clark for the egregious offense of noting that being a prisoner of war did not necessari...

Republican John McCain, who four years ago condemned independent ads challenging Democrat John Kerry's military record, has accepted nearly $70,000 fo...

Wes Clark's remarks remind us what we should have learned from the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth: questioning someone's military record lowers the tone of the campaign and distracts from the real issues.

A McCain "Truth Squad" is now alleging that Obama's true vulnerability isn't that he didn't see action in Vietnam, but that he did -- on the side of America's enemies.

By running to the middle in an attempt to attract undecided swing voters, the Obama campaign is making a very serious mistake. It didn't work for Al Gore in 2000. It didn't work for John Kerry in 2004. And it didn't work when Mark Penn convinced Hillary Clinton to do it in 2008.

Sen. John Kerry harshly criticized John McCain on Monday for using a member of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth in his efforts to counteract criticis...

To understand how we got ourselves in the middle of an election with so little information and so much suspicion, we need to review the 2004 election issues that revolved around John Kerry.

It is a lesson in just how persistent and irritating smear campaigns can be. Nearly four years after the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth trotted out a s...

Our goal shouldn't be to keep money out of politics -- but rather to keep big money out of politics.

I besiege Democrats not to take an Obama win for granted. We can't assume everyone in the country is aware of McCain's weaknesses and fidelity to the Bush agenda.
