"With a tear running down his face, my one son looked me in the eye and said, "Dad, that Kerry is a sonofabitch for doing that to his fellow comrades. Now I understand why you will fight him with all your might. I will tell ALL of my friends this story". I felt like he now really does understand his old Marine pops."

My dad was in the Navy fer 30 years that included two stints off Viet Nam. While he votes consistently fer GOPers, he's relatively apolitical...until NOW!! Kerry really gets under his skin and he's been talking via e-mail with many of his Vet friends who almost unanimously agree that Kerry is Unfit to Command!!

FReegards...MUD

"When it was over, General Giap and the NVA viewed the Tet '68 offensive as a failure, they were on their knees and had prepared to negotiate a surrender. At that time, there were fewer than 10,000 U.S. casualties, the Vietnam War was about to end, as the NVA was prepared to accept their defeat. Then, they heard Walter Cronkite (former CBS News anchor and correspondent) on TV proclaiming the success of the Tet '68 offensive by the communist NVA. They were completely and totally amazed at hearing that the US Embassy had been overrun. In reality, The NVA had not gained access to the Embassy--there were some VC who had been killed on the grassy lawn, but they hadn't gained access. Further reports indicated the riots and protesting on the streets of America."

This is not deissimilar from the strategy the Islamo-Fascists are employing to win the War on Terrorism...the Leftist DemonRATS are doing the work of the Enemy by undermining our efforts in Iraq!!

RATS are EVIL...MUD

I agree completely! The demonrats are nothing short of traitors! My wish is that they'd all be tried & convicted of aiding and abetting the enemy in a time of war.

Chieftan-
First let me say - God Bless you for your service.

Now, this is how we will make a huge difference in this election. Your son's friends wouldn't listen to you if you told them how JF'nK hurt you but they WILL listen to your sons - and this is how we will change the minds of the younger generation.

Thanks for your kind words, Mama. That conversation we had yesterday was one of many that we have had about Kerry, but something about it, clicked inside of them. They WILL spread the word to their co-workers and friends.

...the media will soon be forced to look at his anti-war activities.Just like they were forced to look at his commendations when the first Swifty commercial was released.

The GOP needs to strike while the iron is hot, while the liberal media is in full damage control mode for their candidate, and detail for the American people the blatant bias, and the burying of information the partisan press has engaged in. The MM is as much of an enemy as Jean Kerry is, IMHO.

Kerry's shrapnel looks questionable... he had an MRI in February, not allowed if a patient has shrapnel in his or her body.




From "Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)" at http://www.spineuniverse.com/displayarticle.php/article248.html

"Patients need to tell their physician if their body contains any ferromagnetic objects such as shrapnel, a pacemaker, or aneurysm clips. These patients cannot undergo MRI study. Ferromagnetic objects are attracted by the MRI's magnet."




The New York Sun March 30, 2004...

"In a conference call with reporters yesterday, Mr. Kerry's surgeon, Bertram Zarins, said the senator has a partial tear of the subscapularis tendon in his rotator cuff. Dr. Zarins said the injury stemmed from a mishap in January on the Kerry campaign bus in Iowa."

""The senator was walking down the aisle and the bus suddenly lurched. Senator Kerry grabbed a railing and wrenched his shoulder," Dr. Zarins said. Mr. Kerry later complained of shoulder pain. In February, he underwent an MRI test that revealed the tear."

"Dr. Zarins said he and Mr. Kerry initially opted for a wait-and-see approach regarding the shoulder, hoping that the pain would abate. It did not."

He could not get through the metal detectors at all federal offices with shrapnel in his rear. Of course that would not apply to flying since he flies tandem on Theresa's broom.

But later research confirmed that in five or more cases, those testifying at the Detroit rally lied about serving in Vietnam and/or about witnessing examples of brutal war crimes.

Widely reported, but unsupportable at this time, I believe.

Note the article doesn't name any of the cases supposedly debunked.

It may happen in the future, thanks to the efforts of FR's wintersoldier.com. But it remains for the future.
