SWIFTBOATING-Why the new meaning of the word?

Question

How and why and WHO gave this word a new and novel definition?

John Kerry was one person. His buddies from the Swiftboats, with whom he worked while in the U.S. service (I forget how many--20 or 30?) testified against him.

Therefore certain people have now said all Kerry's old buddies were lying. NO PROOF OF THE "LIES". Just a new definition and use of the word by so many people to use the term "swiftboating" to mean you are lying.

I DEPLORE THIS NEW TACTIC. If you think the 20 or 30 were lying--

Just Prove it. Do not create a new meaning for the word and use it as if everyone in the world knows the new and novel meaning.

Your use of the new meaning will create the idea in many dum-dums

that the new meaning is correct and that if 20 or 30 people testify against one person--then that one person is correct and the many

are necessarily lying.

This is a DUM-DUM political tactic.

What do you have to say about it?

Answer 1

Liberal consider the truth about their candidates as being lies and that is where the term began. Kerry lied about everything he did bofore, uring and after VietNam and the "swiftboater" just told the truth.

Answer 2

Did you know there is something worse than whi-tey scum

WS SOBs that pretend not to be WS SOBs. There seems to be an overabundance of this kind on the migra category.

Answer 3

I think the whole thing is terrible.
