Feel free to add to my questions and I'll include them in an update.

EXCELLENT. I'm just glad to see some political threads posted again. For the last couple of days my Freeper friends have been kinda quiet; perhaps a bit discouraged. It's still five months until the election. That's an eternity in politics and anything can happen. This Iraqi Prisoner Abuse Scandal is not going to last forever. This too will pass and the American public can get refocused on what a double-talking, flip flopping, hypocrital liar John Kerry is.

I tell ya bud, Those are some really great questions, You should consider forwarding them to somebody who might have chance of asking them.

My Question for John Kerry and the multible personalities that have surfaced during his public life would be.......

Would the real John Kerry... Please stand up!

[no dems]

I agree with post #3. This "Questions for Kerry Essay" needs to be published nationally; for real.

The question I'd like to ask ol' horse teeth right now is:
"How could you, in a clear conscience and having any thread of decency about you, dance on the grave of Nick Berg before his body was even cold by using his horrendous death as a reason to send out a fundraising letter; especially after condemning George W. Bush for having pictures of 9/11 in his ads?"

Good job.

3-you were in favor of the 91 gulf war, but voted against it.
you were against the 03 iraqi war,but voted in favor of it.Do you find this clear speaking?
4-Examined historically, what lessons do were learn about regulations from looking at the behavior of the icc.
5- Under what conditions should taxes be raised?
6- why did democrats lose 52 seats in the house and 8 in the senate in 84?

[packing heat]

If I could ask Sen. Kerry one question...
"Sen., why?"
I bet he'd have paragraphs of response and not even know what I'm asking about.

Sen. Kerry, Exactly when and why did you resigned as spokesman from the VVAW?

At first you denied being at a VVAW meeting in November 1971 in which a plot to assassinate several senators was debated and put to a vote in Kansas City.

Later, when it was shown that you were indeed at that meeting you said you won't dispute it but still don't remember it.

Q: So if you were at a meeting where a plot to assassinate US senators took place (during war time), and you were present for a debate and vote on the issue, then why did you not resign for that reason?

If you claim the reason you resigned was because of this meeting and vote then why is it that you can not recall the reason you resigned from the VVAW in which you were a prominent figure?

Are we to believe that the vote on the plot to assassinate senators was not enough to encourage you to leave or that you simply have no recollection of why you left?

And if that meeting was the reason for your resignation from VVAW and you simply forgot why you resigned from this organization, then why is there an AP Photo from January 11, 1972 that describes you as the leader of the VVAW as well as a NYT story dated January 26, 1972 also describing you as the leader and another story from the AP dated April 22, 1972 also describing you as the leader? Did you not ever attempt to set the record straight, or were you still the leader at that time?

One more question...

Senator Kerry, you called for the resignation of Donald Rumsfeld because you said the responsibility for the abuse of the POW's passes to the leader.

Q: Under oath you testified that you'd done far worse. Your words were "war atrocities" and you went on to describe some of them. By your own admission under oath your actions were far worse than being the Secretary of Defense at a time when people many levels of command under him. So why should Donald Rumsfeld be held accountable for actions he didn't personally commit when you have not been held accountable for the actions you state under oath you did commit?

Why have you not been tried as a war criminal?
Do you believe that a war criminal is appropriate military experience for the commander in chief?

[Lawgvr1955]

Kerry won't take any questions from anyone in a venue that he can't control. He would avoid the question similarly to the one he did by asking "Are you a Republican?", etc. Any time a question listed on this thread was asked, he would frame his response that you were 1) questioning his patriotism, 2) being mean spirited, 3) failing to make GB account for his missing National Guard time, etc.

As hard as it is to believe, Kerry seems lower on the moral chart than Clinton. But he is above Ted Kennedy.

[garylmoore]

I would ask, For the atrocities that you have admitted to, shouldn't you be in jail?

[Jaxter]

Question: Your citations for the Silver and Bronze Stars that you have posted on your website are signed by John Lehman. Mr. Lehman was not Secretary of the Navy until more than 10 years after you left the navy. Why were your citations not signed by John Chafee, who was SecNav at the time you were given the awards?

I sit here in awe. This is a fantastic post and I am bookmarking it for reference. Thank you for an intelligent and well researched diatribe.

Well Bandit, I think you've got him on this one,
"Were you really once a 'Public Information Officer,' and if so, when and where?"

According to NA Form 13164 - which I'm holding in my hot little hands, John Forbes Kerry served in the following assignments and geographical locations:

Naval Officer candidate School, US Naval Base, Newport RI - STUDENT
Naval Schools Command, Treasure Island, SF, CA - STUDENT
Fleet Anti-Air Warfare Training Center, san Diego, CA - STUDENT
USS Gridley (DLG 21), Commander, First Division - Electrical Department¹
Naval Amphibious Base, Coronado, CA - STUDENT
Commander Coastal Squadron ONE, Patrol Craft Fast, RVN - War Hero²
Military Sea Transportation Services, Atlantic - Personal Aid

His Military education was;
US Naval Officer Candidate School, Nuclear Weapons Orientation³.

BTW, here's some more tidbits on Mr. Kerry;
Enlisted in the US Naval Reserves 19 Aug, 1966. Enlisted Service #B10 78 84.
Served as such until 15 Dec, 1966 when he graduated from OCS an an Ensign and appointed as a Reserve Officer in the US Navy.
16 Dec, 1966 -- 3 Jan, 1970 Officer Service #713525
Discharged as a LTJG

#1 - The form does not list his service in the electrical department on the USS Gridley, that info though IS common knowledge and is from another source - The Boston Globe.
#2 - You know I'm mocking him here, right?
#3 - Kerry & Nukes (shudder)? Scary thought.

As such, you can see that LTJG Kerry NEVER served as a 'Public Information Officer'. Go get 'em Bandit!

I would like to ask him this- did Pat Tillman die for a just cause?

[OPS4]

Why Did Kerry take campaign funds from the Big Dig along with Teddy Kennedy when he knew organized crime figures were syphoning off billions of dollars.

The cost overrun to date is 13.5 Billion of Federal tax dollars for a tunnel in Boston. This is one of the biggest scams in the history of the United States, and was featured in O'reilly's book.

Kerry even helped pass the bill for this project and interferred when the insurance companies, no longer wanted to underwrite this debacle and forced them to cover it.

The BOston Globe had allready implicated 3 former governors on this deal and yet they dropped it short of Kerry and Kennedy. And still they are asking for more money for it in the current transportation bills!

The Big Dig Dig Scam!

Kerry's Credibility Hole
Special Interest groupie John Kerry, who claims he's fighting the lobbyist, may have been caught with his pants down over a big one.

A Senate colleague was trying to close a loophole that allowed a major insurer to divert millions of federal dollars from the nation's most expensive construction project. John Kerry stepped in and blocked the legislation.
Over the next two years, the insurer, American International Group, paid Kerry's way on a trip to Vermont and donated at least $30,000 to a tax-exempt group Kerry used to set up his presidential campaign. Company executives donated $18,000 to his Senate and presidential campaigns.


Were the two connected? Kerry says not.


But to some government watchdogs, the tale of the Massachusetts senator's 2000 intervention, detailed in documents obtained by The Associated Press, is a textbook case of the special interest politicking that Kerry rails against on the presidential trail.


"The idea that Kerry has not helped or benefited from a specific special interest, which he has said, is utterly absurd," said Charles Lewis, head of the Center for Public Integrity that just published a book on political donations to the presidential candidates.


"Anyone who gets millions of dollars over time, and thousands of dollars from specific donors, knows there's a symbiotic relationship. He needs the donors' money. The donors need favors. Welcome to Washington. That is how it works."


The documents obtained by AP provide a window into Kerry's involvement in a two-decade-old highway and tunnel construction project in his home state of Massachusetts. Known as the "Big Dig," it had become infamous for its multibillion dollar cost overruns.


Kerry's office confirmed Wednesday that as member of the Senate Commerce Committee he persuaded committee chairman John McCain, R-Ariz., to drop a provision that would have stripped $150 million from the project and ended the insurance funding loophole.



The Big Dig is one of the worst boondoggles ever created. It's a Kerry, Kennedy concoction and stands as a classic example of corrupt politics and labor getting together to bilk taxpayers. That Kerry actively helped the continuance of this mess shows what a horrible president he'd be. And is perhaps an indicator what corrput pol he is.

The story continues... Stay Tuned!
Ops4 God Bless America!

I have updated my post here. Unfortuantly, FreeRepublic Admin. doesn't want me attacking Sen. Kerry since they have pulled it and even removed this from frontPage. Sad we have to be silenced in exposing Kerry by FreeRepublic Admin.

You can continue to see what FreeRepublic don't want you to see at:

What do you mean? It's still here. I've added it to "vanity" so it's in a category.

[GraniteStateConservative]

Oh, they just moved it to "Bloggers & Personal." It's no big deal.
