Yesterday, in a true victory against the 'Swift Boat Veterans for Truth,' the Federal Court in Philadelphia issued a decision dismissing a defamation case brought by Carlton Sherwood against Senator John Kerry and his Pennsylvania campaign manager Anthony Podesta.
The complaint had alleged that the Democratic National Committee and others sought to prevent Sherwood during the 2004 Presidential Campaign from distributing a movie entitled 'Stolen Honor,' which dealt with Sherwood's views of the Senator's conduct after his military service during the Vietnam War.
The case was 'dismissed with prejudice.' A 'dismissed with prejudice' ruling means that Carlton Sherwood can never bring another lawsuit against John Kerry on this topic again.
