The Pamphleteer |
|
|
During colonial times in America, if you wanted to convince or inform people about some issue that you considered important, you went to the local printer and got some pamphlets printed. You then handed them out, read them to anybody that was interested, nailed them to the town bulletin board, or the nearest tree.
The first amendment was specifically written to protect this type of activity and the writers or "pamphleteers".

Swift Vets and POWs for Truth ACTION ALERT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- John Kerry's Supporters Again Try to Muzzle His Critics Smear campaign launched against Sinclair Broadcasting after it announces plans to air "Stolen Honor" nationwide The Kerry camp is at it again. After trying -- unsuccessfully -- to block the publication of "Unfit for Command," his supporters are now working to force Sinclair Broadcasting Group to pull back from plans to air the documentary film "Stolen Honor" on its 62 nationwide affiliates later this month. The documentary vividly portrays the impact of John Kerry's false testimony and statements about the Vietnam War. As brave soldiers endured torture, starvation and death behind enemy lines, Kerry accused them of war crimes and actively sought to discredit everything they fought for. America needs to know the truth about Senator Kerry, and Sinclair is doing the right thing. Kerry's camp and its allies are now urging supporters to flood Sinclair affiliates with angry calls and letters. A campaign has been started to silence the truth about John Kerry. Once again, we must meet the challenge. Here's what we need you to do! 1) Contact the Sinclair affiliates to offer your support for the film. They need to hear from Veterans and concerned citizens who want America to see and hear the truth about John Kerry. Further down this email we have provided the list of affiliates for you to call and voice your support. Important points to convey to the affiliates: Do NOT GIVE IN to pressures to silence the POWs and their remarkable story. The POWs deserve their story to be heard -- they are being silenced now by the Kerry campaign just like they were 30 years ago in captivity. This film needs to be shown! 2) Call Sinclair's Corporate Headquarters and offer your support for the film. PLEASE thank Sinclair for their decision to air an important story on how John Kerry's actions after Vietnam furthered the torture and agony of our soldiers being held in captivity by the North Vietnamese. Tell Sinclair to continue to stand on principle and not back down to pressures from those who don't want the POWs' story to be heard.
