Did anyone check to see whether these people were really in Vietnam?

Remember many of Kerry's buddies in the VVAW were NOT in Vietnam, thought they claimed to be.

SERRA: Yeah. We're working very closely with Military Families Speak out" and also with Vietnam Veterans Against the War and the reason we're working with VVAW is because they helped us get started, and they see us...they see us as their second generation..

CONE: Are you working with Bobby Muller?

SERRA: Uhhhhh....Bobby Muller...

CONE:..Of Vietnam Veterans Against the War?

SERRA: Actually, I haven't met him.

Washington editor of The Nation, David Corn

I had some corn in my poop the other night. I was just thinking. That corn was probably worth more than David Corn. I'm not surprised that Corn would choose to glorify these "soldiers". I would like to know if any of these men are still on active duty or in the reserves. If they are, then they are violating orders and should receive a court martial, forthwith.

I also wonder if someone could look into the members military service. Wonder if there are any "Al Hubbards" in the mist?

I wondered that myself....They're named soldiers, so it's probably legit. This menatlity isn't uncommon in some vets returning from war and there's no question that polticians the likes of John Kerry inspires this arm-chair quarterbacking with a political axe to grind.

By the way, Sorry I formatted this wrong. I rushed it without checking it line for line...I thought about making alterations but JimRob will have a cow if I post twice!

Thank you.

I did mean Iraq. But I wouldnt' be surprised that these Iraq veterans would turn out to be as phony, as some of Kerry's VVAW Vietnam vets.

And of course, that Muslim soldier who killed his own fellow soldiers and superiors, by tossing a granade in their tent, is also an Iraq veteran.

These guys sound like they need to re-enlist
and go back into iraq. They have too much time on their
hands.

This is a joke. One term marines with an ax to grind. I ranted and raved when I was in Nam about just about everything. These bozos stated it in each of their statements...they're simply Bush haters, of the same variety that sKerry has tried to energize.
Maybe they're hoping to get themselves a ketchup-queen as a result of their actions.
Two months, 40 members. Don't look for them to have any impact, either now or in the future.

thanks for the link. Another nail in Kerrys coffin. Its a shame the way they treated the men and women coming home from Vietnam. America's image of the American Soldier was changing and we were proud of them once again until Kerry came along and dragged all the memories of a terrible time back to the forefront. Once again soldiers are being bombarded by the MSM and others into thinking they have done wrong.

It seems like most of the conversation was "uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh"

I have a friend who just returned this week. Our first conversation was not terribly positive.

He said it is very difficult to tell friends from enemies.

There was concern about not having gas mask equipment.

Said the only WMDs were those that "we" sold Saddam before the war.

I suppose it is pretty easy for the person on the ground to have little perspective about the big picture. Perhaps the pressure of being on the ground in such circumstances is discouraging. I don't know. Perhaps it is possible that we don't have the proper perspective from here.

I really hope this does not become a trend. I believe we were right to go in and right to stay in.

I can't understand why these two even joined the Marines. What did they think they were going to be doing, defending kids at Neverland?

Something is strange here. Wonder what their Commanding Officers have to say about these two "Marines". Sound like a couple of cry babies to me.

Also, I would be curious when the joined the Marines. Maybe they are DEM moles but then again, Kerry's new campaign managers are known for their low-life tactics and things are looking pretty dim for Kerry.

Last I checked...I signed up and I volunteered. Nobody put a gun to my head. I am AF, but that was also a choice I made.

Can you believe I left out about 150 or so?...I normally blow over that nonsense when I quote, but with these 2 idiots, I wouldn't be doing them the justice they so rightfully deserve.

The actual audio is worse.

I have heard alot of the stories from guys coming in from SWA, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. I am a AF medic (reserve), I know it is hard and I have seen and heard alot of the stories. Some do break your heart...they just need to remember that it was their choice to join. I don't know if they are seeing the big picture, especially with the leftish liberal media.
