In defense of my brother John

The Boston Globe ^ | August 28, 2004 | Diana Kerry

[Semper Paratus]

Kerry has now used his daughters his wife his sister and a wheel chair bound veteran to defend his. When is he going to come from behind the skirts and answer for himself?

[mass55th]

How does one defend the indefensible? How can a siser defend a brother who lied through his teeth, deserted his fellow vets, divided this country in two, inspired anarchy, riots, and hasn't done a damn thing for 20 years in the Senate?

[Casloy]

You sure that isn't John Kerry pre-botox and pre-hair straightening

[mewzilla]

...would restore international relations wreaked by the Bush administration...

Wreaked?

[mass55th]

After I sent my last post, I decided to write to the Boston Globe in reply to this woman's letter. Here it is:

In your August 28, 2004, Diana Kerry writes in defense of her brother. But, how does one defend the indefensible? How can a sister defend a brother who lied through his teeth about war atrocities and his record, deserted his fellow vets, divided this country in two, inspired anarchy, riots, and hasn't done a damn thing for 20 years in the Senate?

Your brother did irreparable harm to this country. My brother was one of those Vietnam soldiers that John Kerry denigrated. He's not alive to speak his mind today, so I am doing it for him. How your brother thought his treasonous activities of the 70's would be forgotten by the men whose reputations he destroyed, shows me John Kerry is out of touch with reality. Today those veterans have families, children and grandchildren, and Senator Kerry...we will never forget.

Let us know if they print your letter.

The "sensitivity" with which this "mongrel" (Douglas Brinkley word) has been ever so telling of what he thinks of the "little" people.

[LBelle]

Yeah, well....

And Scott Peterson's mommy thinks he's innocent too.

[mass55th]

"Let us know if they print your letter."

I highly doubt they'll print it. First of all, I don't live in Massachusetts. Second of all, it's probably too inflammatory for the wusses of Beantown.

[Just mythoughts]

Your letter gets to the point of the wounds JFKerry inflicted and now wants to pour salt into.

This is the "EVIL" of JFKerry seeking to "reenact" his actions of Vietnam and after, once again upon a whole new generation.

Next up at bat for Kerry ?

But enough of old Joe, let's concentrate on Teddy now. This fine example for our youth has quite a colorful history all of his own. He was thrown out of Harvard college for having another student take a test for him, this of course, was covered up (an early trend starting) and was forced into the Army by old Joe for a 2 year stint as a Military Police "Honor" guard at SHAPE Headquarters in Paris, not a bad assignment for a rich, cheating brat during the Korean war. By the way, the normal enlistment period for that timeframe was four years, not two like draftees. After his service, he was allowed back into Harvard to complete his degree and go on to further education, all greased by his father. I'm not sure if Teddy had a real job, that entailed getting his hands dirty, but was appointed as a Assistant District Attorney in Suffolk County in Massachusetts in 1961 (big surprise there, huh?)

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Great letter.

They know the heat is on their boy Kerry.

I hope they get a box full of letters.

[Soylent Democrats]

Grotesque. She looks like a transgendred, syphilitic whore.

[GailA]

These brave men aren't wishy washy politicians who buckle at the least sign of adversity. These brave souls bite back.

[Stag]

Isn't she still on the government payroll? She was a Clinton appointee that GW kept on.

[cyborg]

Effin' in drag

[Stag]

yup...lesbeeyan

[mass55th]

"Next up at bat for Kerry ? "

Uncle Teddy's been pretty quiet on all of this hasn't he? Is he in Rehab?

[Soylent Democrats]

It's a product of inter-familial coitus. I'm sure F'in had his sister. It's the Democratic way.

[cyborg]

I dunno...I guess the women in Effin's family do not age well.

re: "and by every official US Navy account, he acquitted himself heroically"

Could that be because every US Navy account is based on his description of what transpired? If this were a computer program instead of Kerry's bid for the presidency it would be in an endless loop and the only way out would be the three-fingered salute. I would be happy to give Kerry a three-fingered salute, just as soon as I find another person since I would need three hands for the salute!
