They'd be more aptly named "Swift Boat Veterans for Dishonesty".
The fact that their website is .com rather than .org suggests that they
are not a public service organization. A '527 organization' is defined
as one that tries to "influence the selection, nomination, election or
appointment of an individual to a federal, state, or local public office
or office in a political organization." In other words, they say they
are non-partisan and just trying to give us the facts but the fact they
*don't* give is that they are partisan by definition.
But let's be fair, take a look for yourself.

They say (quote):
"Senator John Kerry has made his 4-month combat tour in Vietnam the
centerpiece of his bid for the Presidency."
Actually, that's not the case. The Republicans have made Kerry's Viet
Nam record the centerpiece of *their* campaign against him.
Isn't it curious that this group had nothing to say during the
Democratic primaries? I also think it's rather curious that this group
of vets have nothing at all to say about requiring President Bush to
give some more details of *his* service.
