Have I missed something?

I’ve been away. So I might have. But has the BBC reported the Swift Boats controversy at all?

    Being curious about that myself I did a search on the BBC web site. Swift boat got me some unrelated items. Swiftboat veterans got me nothing and swift boat veterans likewise yielded nothing.

    Perhaps they’ll cover the “Christmas 1968 in Cambocia” thing, though I wouldn’t hold my breath.

    Remember the breathless coverage of Bush’s national guard service records? This was the non-story of the new millenium, yet the leftist shills who dominate the BBC’s newsrooms wouldn’t let go.

    The BBC is not a credible news source, and it is beyond redemption. Time to end it.

    They did (if you look very hard) just cover the oil for fraud scandal, but in a very roundabout and factless manner.

    Don’t hold your breath. The BBC and all the libs in the US are so busy with their “Kerry for President” signs and wanking off for the little turd that they don’t have time for that pesky little story that Kerry is a damned liar.

    They do have time for hilarious stories about how George W. Bush choked on a pretzel, though. That made the liberal media laugh with glee for a week.

    The BBC hasn’t reported much, if at all, on the “Swift Boats controversy” because it isn’t true!! Duh! Even Bush has taken the highly unpredictable and unusual step of disassociating himself from such ridiculous propaganda, despite this being an election year!

    PS Sean Morris, the ads WERE being run by affiliates of the Bush team, you need to check your facts.
