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.

Do you think this is the iceberg we've been waiting for?

From the American Spectator: Washington Prowler

WE'LL ALWAYS HAVE PARIS

The John Kerry camp should be careful about how much mud it flings. According to media sources in New York for the campaign, a number of national media outlets have already completed or close to completing several major investigations into possible Kerry fundraising irregularities, as well as what one media source calls "devastating" stories of Kerry's time in Paris when he was meeting with Communist Vietnamese officials.

"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."

BRING IT ON!!!

This should be interesting, as it will force Pelosi and the rest of the socialists to decloak.

Friday, just wait.. Methinks Newt was a little anxious..
But Friday!

The only bad part is that it is so ugly, Kerry may quit and I can only imagine the worst case scenario, Hillary riding to the party's rescue..

it's breaking. Now, because the Mainstream media ignored it before, this becomes exciting "new" information to the public. If only they'd covered it months ago when it was discussed on FR, they might have been successful in downplaying the problem----now the media is stuck.

Yeah right. It'll probably fall flat just like the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth allegations have. /Sarcasm.

Earlier on the Hannity show he mentioned that he had come across film of Kerry committing war crimes in Vietnam and hoped to have it on his show next week.

Looks like Hannity has really been working hard to bring out the truth on Kerry.

This will get about as much attention from the mainstream media and swing voter as the Bush DUI. People can't get their heads around it and/or won't care much.

Sorry, Hannity said that on the Jay Severin show, not AFAIK, on his own.

This won't go anywhere unless they have transcripts, which they don't I figure. Kerry will say that he was there to try to get POW's out or something.

If they have something they should spill it. But if its just hearsay then they should leave it alone and let the Swift Boat guys state what they know from personal experience.

If it doesn't stick, really stick. it will put off the public on any of the Vietnam info already out there.

This is not the break, this is an appetizer.. Just wait until Friday.. The party is trying to hold as much until after the convention.. After all, they don't want to be accused of distracting from the convention...

The GOP have better be right on this. I would hate for this to be a fake or even worse, if Kerry had been sent to talk to the Cong by our government.

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 guess I have been around the block with GOP accusations like the ones about Clinton that went nowhere. The Chinese connections come to mind.
