In an interview published Friday in the LOS ANGELES TIMES, Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry claimed he "never ever implied" that he threw his own medals on the Hill in 1971 to appear as an antiwar hero -- but a new shock video shows John Kerry's saying he did!
ABC's GOOD MORNING AMERICA is set to rock the political world Monday morning with an airing of Kerry's 1971 boast, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

From this and the naysayers on DU, it appears that the Dems want Kerry out of the way.

1. he threw his own medals away.
2. years later, admits they were somone elses medals
3. Years after that, he says he never inmplied he threw his own medals away.
4. Days after tha,t video is found showing him saying he threw his own medals away.
So let's see if I got this right.
He lied about a lie he lied about, a lie he lied about ?

The noteworthy thing here is that, according to DRUDGE, this is an ABC story. A crack in the dyke, so to speak (with apologies to the junior Senator from NY).
Outside of that, do you really think this story will make much of a dent in this guy?

Merely youthful indiscretion. Why, he would never lie to us. </sarcasm>

I never believed that story that he threw someone else's medals over the wall. So who did he mug to get those medals on his wall? Or did he counterfeit them?

This is the last we will hear of this...I can't see Peter, Dan, Tom, or the irrelevant Cunning News Network reporting this.
The only thing Kerry's got going for him at this point is his color schemes...especially his biking wardrobe... /sarcasm

Just wait until it is figured out that Kerry probably claimed his medals were 'lost or misplaced' and reapplied for them AGAIN, which would explain why Sec Lehman's signature is on his approval documents, some 10-15 years later?

Kerry could stand up in front of a microphone at a campaign ralley and say F**K The United States!, and he'd still get 35-40% of the vote in November.

One question: Then whose medals are those hanging in his Senate office that one time back in the 80s I believe when a reporter discovered them?

I'm guessing he threw his family's medals.
Let's move along... and don't question the man's patriotism.

Possible Kerry responses:
- "I actually said I threw away my medals before I said I didn't"
- "Those were my families medals"
- "???"
To: Nexus
Yeah, you're probably right. What's the matter with this Public guy? Doesn't he read FR? :-)

If someone at ABC leaked this to Drudge, it could mean that ABC was about to kill the story. Just like what happened with Lewinsky, Drudge got the story before the Liberal Media could make it disappear.

WAIT! He had medals? Was he in Viet Nam or something? Is he a veteran?

The ONLY constant and unchanging aspect of John F'ing Kerry - is that he remains an arrogant a$$hole...
