*Rare* Audio: Listen to John Kerry LIE to Congress in 1971

In 1971, John Kerry went before the Senate Foreign Relations committee and, inter alia, testified to "War Crimes" uncovered by Jane Fonda's "Winter Soldier Investigation."  See, e.g., wintersoldier.com.

In April, the VVAW stormed Washington in a week-long protest. At the height of it, spokeman John Kerry went before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations to accuse the United States military of committing massive numbers of war crimes in Vietnam. The appearance launched Kerry's political career. The charges he made shocked and sickened a nation, changed the course of a war and stained the reputation of the American military for decades.

But the mass murder of civilians was never American policy in Vietnam. War crimes were the exception, not the rule. And the Winter Soldier tribunal itself -- which John Kerry had helped moderate -- turned out to be, in the words of historian Guenter Lewy, "packed with pretenders and liars."

C-SPAN said they were looking for the tape and that they would play it "in coming weeks." I can't wait.

[jmstein7]

Yeah. I'm trying to find the part where Kerry says Democracy, Communism, and totalitarian dictatorships are all the same.

You can hear audio of Kerry lie to the entire nation every day on the evening news when they cover his campaign speeches.

[mosel-saar-ruwer]

Are you certain this is the 1971 testimony?

The voice sounds like a sixty-ish year old man, not a twenty-five-ish year old man. It sounds as though Kerry were re-reading his 1971 testimony thirty years later.

It's one thing to read it. It's quite another to hear it.

Despicable.

Waiting to see/hear this on abc/cbs/nbc/cnn!!! (Holding my breath)

[jmstein7]

BUMP!

[jmaroneps37]

Things like THIS are why lurch is done for. Three years ago this stuff would never ever be put up by anybody. The ratmedia will ignore this but people who vote will not.

[jmstein7]

BUMP!

[MeekOneGOP]

Rut-Roh ! How long can you keep that up ? ...

[abner]

Stay tuned... Video coming in about 2 minutes.

[jmstein7]

Actually, that's tomorrow, and you'll never guess what I'm getting...

:)

[jmstein7]

Expect a BIG announcement late tomorrow!

[MeekOneGOP]

What an arsehole ...

Earlier, Connelly wrote, when Yarrow sang “Puff the Magic Dragon”
at an event in a private home in Ames, Iowa, “Kerry lifted his
fingers to his mouth for a quick toke on an imaginary joint.
You can almost see his thick mane of silver hair returning to the
shaggy brown do of those days.”

Gee, Hugh Hewitt played it in its entirety two weeks ago. If I, a housewife in America know this, how come C-SPAN doesn't? If they really want to "find" it, it's out there.

Hope they "find" it soon!

[abner]

Video!

[jmstein7]

You rock!

[abner]

So do you!

Actually, I just put them together... .

[jmstein7]

But, I have something that will make these videos/audio look like diddly-squat ;)
