"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved." -- Confucius

Anti-Kerry Veterans Collect Nearly $7M

WASHINGTON (AP) -- WASHINGTON - A group running ads accusing John Kerry (news - web sites) of exaggerating his decorated Vietnam War service record is nearing $7 million in contributions, thanks in part to several Republican donors.

The Swift Boat Veterans for Truth has raised at least $6.7 million since it was founded in April. That includes at least $1.9 million in donations of $1,000 or more, with several coming in from people who previously gave to President Bush's re-election campaign and the GOP, according to a report the group filed Friday with the Federal Election Commission.

So frigging what?

And that's just three anti-Bush 527's. I used anti-Bush and not leftist (although they are) for a reason. To apple-and-apple the comparasion. The Swifties are an anti-Kerry organization, not a right-wing one as they would be gunning for John Kerry were he the GOP nominee.

The Swiftboat Veterans for Truth are still small potatoes compared to the hordes of left-wing 527's. The media's fixation on them is still indicative of their bias.
