O'Neill is from Houston. An attorney I know is friends with him. O'Neill has kept out of politics for decades. In the past various groups have asked him to get involved against Kerry in Kerry's other political campaigns. O'Neill refused. The only time O'Neill has been real political was when he debated Kerry on Dick Cavett decades ago. Where he cleaned Kerry's clock in my opinion.
Some months ago O'Neill was in the hospital donating a kidney to his wife. As he was recovering in the hospital O'Neill looked up at the TV and discovered how close Kerry was to the presidency. O'Neill, a man who doesn't have to get involved in all of this decided to because he was appalled that Kerry could be elected CIC. O'Neill knew Kerry and others would come down on him like a ton of bricks. But O'Neill bravely stepped forward like a lot of other Vietnam Vets did.
O'Neill's book is supposedly written as one with O'Neill's talents as a lawyer would write something for litigation. Facts facts facts. And O'Neill is not taking any money from the book sales.
John O'Neill was the real deal decades ago and he is the real deal today. John Kerry was a liar and did a great deal of damage to the people that served in Vietnam. He is still a liar and also a fool for picking open the scab that's on the wound of Vietnam. A wound John Kerry basically created all by himself when he lied to the to Congress. And called good men baby killers and such garbage.
But you know what? John Kerry has done one good thing recently. He has given men like John O'Neill the opportunity to clear their names of the scarlet letter John Kerry branded them with 30 years ago. And by G-d I hope the Vietnam Vets in this county who Kerry trashed get their sweet revenge for what Kerry did.
John F. Kerry for president? What a sick joke!
Well said!
