Swift Boat B.S.

It's with some pleasure that I read in this morning's paper that the people who served with John Kerry are going after T.Boone Pickens. As you may recall he is the Billionaire Texan who financed the Swift Boat attacks against Kerry in the 2004 attack advertisements alleging he made up all the stuff for which he received a medal.

Pickins, which I shall refer to Slim, as in slim to none, regarding intelligence, morals and integrity, offered a million bucks to anyone that could prove his nefarious accusations wrong. Then men who served with Kerry offered their versions of events and Kerr offered to meet slim. Slim keept upping the ante saying that Kerry would have to submit his military record, the journal he kept in Vietnam, and movies and tapes made during his tour of duty. Then upping the ante again, Slim stated Kerry, if unable to disprove his Slim's lies, would have to donate a million bucks to the Medal of Honor Foundation. He added the condition that he referred only to disproving the ads.

Kerry's comrades put together a 42 page document in support of Kerry demanding that Slim apologize to Kerry and the American public. Slim said that he suddenly would not participate in partisan politics this presidential cycle. He could not be reached for comment. The presumption is he is hiding in a bunker somewhere with "Dead eye Darth" Cheney who is hiding out to avoid impeachment for all of his misdeeds.

It's a good thing, Slim's not participating in the political process, because he is a big mouth, destroyer of corporations and robber baron who has no business in mucking about the Democratic process of electing a president. For God's sake look what he got us, the village idiot of Crawford, Texas. One can't help but wonder what the world would look like without Dubya.
