Swifty Commander Bob Elder eviscerates John Kerry on Laura Ingraham Show
Laura Ingraham show | 7-29-04 | dfu

Posted on 07/29/2004 8:55:40 AM PDT by doug from upland

Their voice will not be silenced. They will go across America to spread the truth.

Former swifty boat commander Bob Elder did a devastating segment on Laura Ingraham's show this morning. He and his group are determined that American will know the truth of John Kerry's Vietnam record.

Elder says that two of the Purple Hearts were the result of Kerry's own hand. He had to put in for them himself. One was turned down twice and Kerry finally got someone in Saigon to come through for him.

Kerry left his comrades in arms and then turned on them accusing them of hideous war crimes. Three men Elder knows were kept for seven years and tortured. They could have been released if they said five simple words: I am a war criminal. They didn't say it. They didn't have to say it. Kerry did it for them.

Kerry was aloof from the rest. He made it clear that he was out for himself and to created his own JFK resume. He made it clear that he was doing this so he could create a path to the White House for himself.

Before this is over, Elder, Sampley, O'Neill and the rest of these patriots are going to stop this phony from becoming our commander in chief.

Kerry was aloof from the rest.

Looking at this pic, that`s pretty obvious.

I heard it. I wish Laura would let the guy finish his point. He was discussing the conditions surrounding Kerry's 3 PHs, but she didn't let him get to the third. She has to chime in about rice in the butt being a WMD (Kerry's second PH suffered when he threw a concussion grenade in a bag of rice on a sampan).

Laura misses the point more than she gets it.

Because of time, Elder didn't get to get into the third medal. What's his stand on that one?

I think you are being a little unfair to Laura on ths one, although she does sometimes interrupt the guest too often. It was a great and powerful interview.

From what I've heard, it is one that he earned and he should have our respect for that. The point of all of this is that he should be given credit for his service, but those four months can never make up for damage he did to fellow soldiers and can never make up for the damage he has done to the military during his time in office. He spent his capital for doing his duty and has been morally bankrupt on defending this nation for a long, long time.

I know. Laura is fun, and she gets good guests, but then she interrupts them way too much. She kind of has a way of stopping their momentum; also she doesn't know as much as she should.

I still love her but......

I liked the part about going back for the Army guy who fell overboard. Kerry went back, pulled him out of the water and transferred him to another boat. There was no withering emeny gunfire, it was as quiet as the inside of a church.

The Navy should take their Silver Star back (or whatever he got for this rescue)

Kerry won't get this veteran's (my) vote.

And took some rice in the butt. LOL. Great interview. I hope this guy is prolific on the airwaves....

I remember growing up watching anti-war films/TV shows showing the commander as some king of ego-maniac. I even think I remember seeing one -- maybe even M*A*S*H -- in which the commander staged battle scenes so he could film himself as the hero.

These programs were of course produced by the same leftys who now want one of these fools to lead the country.

I think this is why Kerry is going the bunny route. He knows he isn`t going to get support from the vets, so he is trying to enchant voters instead by being a bunny.

Kerry in full bunny regalia......

It was a bit refreshing to see the Rats elect such a balanced ticket as their Standard Bearers. They have both a Stalinist and a Leninist for a change. Oh, sure BJ and Gore were closet Liberals but they marketed themselves as moderates. So to see them finally elect someone the Party stands for was supposed to be a breath of fresh air. But no, that would be too risky so they decided to run the Woodstock Retro Republican Convention. The only thing they haven’t stolen from us so far is the phrase Copassionate Conservative! Once again America is going to be left asking itself, what does the Democrat Party stand for if anything??

Tonight we get to watch some home movies of Yaaaaawn Cut & Ran Kerry’s Bodacious Vacation!! There will be plenty of pictures of him at the “helm” of the PT 109 and autographed copies of his book Profiles in Courage. Did he mention he swam a mile to land dragging a man by his belt after his PT was hit by a Japanese destroyer? His speech however will not even mention that he was in the Senate for 2 decades trying to further the Liberal/Communist agenda. He will not mention that he is the definition of a Tax & Spend Liberal. He will not mention that he blindfolded and handcuffed the CIA and attempted to dismantle it yet crucifies them if their intelligence is not 100% accurate. Would you blindfold and handcuff a bank guard and then fire him for not stopping the robbery? Even if the intelligence was faulty, America wants a Leader who errs on the side of Caution. GW spoke the Truth and America and Iraq are safer places without Sadamn. Tonight we are going to get large doses of Peace With Honor and lots of empty promises.

This is the rope bridge over the Abyss for the Rats. If they lose this election they will have been out of power for more than a decade. You could say that BJ’s second term they were out of power, since he gave us both houses and he was mortally wounded by his own gun. If we lose the election we will still hold the Congress and be back once the people see how badly Yaaaawn would mess things up. If they lose, the realization that their ideas were totally rejected and the complete dismantling of their house of cads. So it is up to Yaaaaawn Tax & Kerry to put enough lipstick on this pig to run it in the Kentucky Derby. He has to convince the people that he is not offering them the Clinton Tax Cuts/Increases and that he will “only” Raise Taxes on the Uber Rich, like him. Another words this will be the only time in his life he supports Tax Cuts and the Only Time in his career he is not going to vote to Raise Taxes......Right! It will also be, the first time he votes to increase the military.....Right!

When it comes to the flowery stuff where he is going to buy everybody a house and a car and help the Poor helpless Blacks stand up to the evil Cross Burning Whites he will cruise like he was skiing behind his 130' yacht. The tough part will be pretending he is a Republican when it comes to Fighting Terrorism. He is not quite the liar that the Stainmaster was and looking into the camara telling his Terrorist buddies he is coming after them could become laughable?? That is where his weakness is. Sure he was Yaaaaawn Blood & Guts in Nam in those 8 weeks he was on the river, but he has been friends with EVERY American enemy since Woodstock I.

Yaaaaawn’s task is immense. He has to convince that not only is he not the person he is, but that his Party is not the Anti-War, Tax & Spend Party that it is. If this Dinosaur cannot pull off the mountainous lie and America realize they have the essence of Democrat weakness, then this Party is on the trash heap of history with their evil partners Communism and Sadamnism . Sex-President clinton may have pulled it off, but in a 9/11 America it didn’t seem to work to well for Pretty Boy last night. My bet is that the American people are a lot brighter than the Stone-age Press or the not as Partisan Delegates, know.

Pray for W and Our Terrific Troops
