Reliable information's the best ammo in a political battle, and the Presidential race is shaping up to be a hell of a fight, so I'll keep trying to find the best stuff I can to refute the ongoing disinfo campaign that Kerry will face.

I've already dealt with the nonsense about Kerry's fundraising record, but here are a couple of resources to fight back against some of the other spurious charges he's facing.

One of the most disreputable slanders has been the distortion of his 1971 Senate testimony on behalf of Vietnam Veterans Against The War. The New Republic, which has proven to be anything but a Kerry campaign vehicle, calls the the Washington Times and National Review to task for their accusations that John Kerry charged his fellow vets with a variety of atrocities, a charge they support by editing the text of his statements in a grotesque acts of journalistic irresponsibility. Check the facts and arm yourself for a response.

Similarly, Health of Nations offers point by point refutation to charges that Kerry has supported the Bush tax cuts or failed to stand up against the Administration's irresponsible policies. Another must read for the well armed Kerry Freedom Fighter.
