IMPENDING GOP BOMBSHELL (Kerry in Paris, 1971!)

AN IMPENDING BOMBSHELL?

[09/01 10:10 PM]

Months ago, I was chatting with a Republican who is very, very knowledgeable about Kerry and I mentioned Kerry's 1971 travels to Paris, and meetings with Madame Nguyen Thi Binh. Binh had been a member of the Central Committee for the National Front for the Liberation of the South, and was now Foreign Minister of the Provisional Revolutionary Government (PRG) of South Vietnam. The military arm of the PRG was widely known as the Viet Cong, just as Madame Binh was widely recognized as the Viet Cong delegate to the conference.

"Yeah, I've heard about that," the Republican said. "I've heard a lot of interesting things about that, but I don't think I want to talk about that just yet."

My eyebrows were raised, but he wouldn't say more.

Well, apparently Newt Gingrich just said to Sean Hannity, very slowly, very carefully, that John Kerry traveled to Paris three times to meet with the Communist leadership in secret.

I think we now know what that Republican didn't yet want to talk about.

Don't think the GOP will drop the bomb, more likely from the SBVT. The SBVT and other vets orgs are taking care of old business from 72 and before.
The GOP is taking care of more recent issues, such as Kerry's voting record.
Pretty much two different audiences.

sKerry was on ... ahhh ...secret mission!
Yeah, Yeah. That's the ticket.
A secret mission that Nixon asked him to go on. Yeah. And Nixon told him, I'm taking this secret to my death so no one will ever know.
Yeah. And you can cut the deal, 'cuz you're a bona fide war hero. Okay, John?
Yeah that's it. That's what happened.

I apologize for my ignorance on this, but can someone spell out for me what this means, and how this should be presented by the media? I haven't heard about this.

We are starting to get some traction in this race and I don't want it lost over something that may or may not be true..

I hear you. Sometimes, when you have damaging info out there on you....a good damage control strategy is to put something similar out that you can knock down easily. Have to be sure that this is not such a deal.

This is great news as it reveals what we all already know about the dirty, communist traitor. But Americans have very short memories and we're still 2 months from the election. I think that's why the Republican 'guy' in the article didn't want to reveal this yet. This is a dish best served cold; just about 3-4 weeks before November 2. Not yet.

Secret meetings are waaaaaaaaaaaaayy too easy to dismiss. Nowhere, that's where this is going.

if Kerry had been sent to talk to the Cong by our government.

??

Kerry went to meet with the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong in 1971.

You think Nixon would've sent Kerry to Paris?

Yes, that information should be repeated in televised broadcasts until everyone in the USA has heard it.

Well, pulling a Toricelli in NJ is a given, but think
of having to fight that battle in all 50 states.

I suppose we do have the precedent of Eagleton.
That went smashingly well, don't you think?

The timing. The timing. The libs are gonna go
ballistic over the timing!

And to think that Hillary leaked this.
For shame.

I heard this too, and when Hannity didn't catch on and changed the subject, Newt repeated it again. Something is up I hope. It seems this guy should have been in the pokey, something that seems to make a democrat qualified to be President these days.

I would let the waters settle and see if he's drown yet before I unleased that bomb. After the RNC convention, we may have no need for that MOAB.

"Americans have no idea what Kerry was doing during that time in Paris," says a journalist. "It makes the Swift Boat ads look lightweight by comparison."

Man, I hope this goes public. Hopefully, RUSH and Hannity will grab it.

Perfect cover...and very Nixonian.

Kerry has scatted on all those contacts with enemy agents and has become a Senator with security clearance.

This smells to me...I would back off. Newt is going to have egg on his face.
