John Kerry has filed an FEC complaint against the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth for running their anti-Kerry ads. Similar groups like Moveon.org have been running anti-Bush ads for years, and you've hardly heard a peep out of Bush. But as soon as Kerry starts taking some heat, he cries foul.

Personally, I think this strategy will backfire on Kerry. The media has been ignoring or working to discredit the Swift Boat Vets, but now, anyone who hasn't heard of the Vets soon will. It doesn't help that Kerry offers no evidence beyond mere accusation.

It was during a campaign stop Thursday that Kerry, a highly decorated Vietnam veteran, said the fact that Bush won't denounce the ads "tells you everything you need to know -- he wants them to do his dirty work."
