"For many of us there is little to remember but the promises... of educational and medical aid which was downgraded in priority below bombs and guns" (New Soldier)
Kerry Links Iraq War Cost, Domestic Woes - "Now the president tells us we don't have the resources to take care of health care and education here at home. That's wrong." (ABC News)
"I think that, more than anything, the New Soldier is trying to point out how there are two Americas."
Kerry on Our Allies
Kerry on Allies: "We found also that all too often American men were dying in those rice paddies for want of support from their allies."
"They were wrong and soldiers lost their lives because they were wrong. And America's paying billions of dollars because they were wrong. And allies are not with us because they were wrong..." (The Guardian, July 12, 2004)

Kerry will, if given the reins to our military, will pull out of Iraq within a year and take a virtually isolationist stance on the war on terror. He is a pacifist and an America-hater. Does anybody have any other 1970s quotes that mirror his views from today that we can add?

Wrong, Kerry is a liar, and a puppet of "money". If elected he will obey orders from The Rothschilds and America will "continue" in slavery, for that is where we are at, unless you are blind.

The Rothschilds? (You mean the candy?) :-)
By pacifist, I don't mean he will never use force (I don't believe any of those truly exist, even Gandhi wasn't one of those). I mean he will virtually disarm his own country and never use force to defend freedom.

It's too bad that grassboots website is always screwed up, overlapping text all over it. Is it my computer/browser(MS/IE), or do you guys get the same thing, overlapped text. I'd like to send some links to some libs I know, but not with all those errors, they won't take it seriously.

FLASHBACK: "John Kerry: A Navy Dove Runs for Congress" (1970 Harvard Crimson interview)
He supports a volunteer Army, "if and only if we can create the controls for it. You're going to have to prepare for the possibility of a national emergency, however." Kerry said that the United Nations should have control over most of our foreign military operations. "I'm an internationalist. I'd like to see our troops dispersed through the world only at the directive of the United Nations."
On other issues, Kerry wants "to almost eliminate CIA activity. The CIA is fighting its own war in Laos and nobody seems to care." He also favors a negative income tax and keeping unemployment at a very low level, "even if it means selective economic controls."

Yes. Similar text overlapping for me, too.

"Kerry got his Honorable Discharge in 2001"
Please take the time to read all of this.
The Net has stipulated that Kerry got his Honorable Discharge in 2001, but until now we did not know why. CBS supposedly got Bush's records and letters. Why haven't they gotten Kerry's? It is no wonder that Kerry refuses to release his military records. There are some things in the records that he doesn't want out.
Folks - I doubt if one in 10,000 Americans are aware that Clinton was responsible for Kerry's "HONORABLE DISCHARGE IN 2001 !!! CBS overlooked this one !!
Shame on you -Dan!!
The reason John Kerry doesn't want to sign Form 180 and release his records. Amazing that he didn't get his honrable discharge until March 2001, initiated by his buddy Bill Clinton. Get this info to as many people that you can.
Oh What a Tangled Web He Weaves - Military Record Unlike McCain, Bush, and Gore
Kerry has adamantly refused to authorize the release of his military records.
Most think it's because of his phony battle medals. As to Kerry's discharge, I think the real reason is below.
He was not granted an Honorable Discharge until March 2001, almost 30 years after his
ostensible service term had ended! This is very much out of the ordinary, and highly suspect.
There are 5 classes of Discharge: Honorable, General, Other Than Honorable, Bad Conduct, and Dishonorable. My guess is that he was Discharged in the '70s, but not Honorably. He appealed this sometime while Clinton was doing trouser-tricks in the Oval Office.
Political pressure was applied, and the Honorable Discharge was then granted. His file is
probably rife with reports of this, submissions and hearings on the appeal, reports of his
"giving aid and comfort" to the enemy, along with protests that were filed with respect to his alleged valor under fire. This will blow up in his face before October 15th.
On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry signed a 6 year enlistment contract with the Navy (plus a 6-month extension during wartime).
On 18 Feb. 1966 John Kerry also signed an Officer Candidate contract for 6 years -- 5 years of ACTIVE duty & ACTIVE Naval Reserves, and 1 year of inactive standby reserves (See items #4 & #5). Because John Kerry was discharged from TOTAL ACTIVE DUTY of only 3 years and 18 days.
On 3 Jan. 1970, he was then required to attend 48 drills per year, and not more than 17 days active duty for training.
Kerry was also subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
Additionally, Kerry, as a commissioned officer, was prohibited from making adverse statements against his chain of command or statements against his country, especially during time of war.
It is also interesting to note that Kerry did not obtain an honorable discharge until Mar. 12, 2001 even though his service obligation should have ended July 1, 1972.
Lt. John Kerry's letter of 21 Nov. 1969 asking for an early release from active US Navy duty falsely states "My current regular period of obligated service would be completed in December of this year."
On Jan. 3, 1970 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to the Naval Reserve Manpower Center in
Bainridge, Maryland. Where are Kerry's Performance Records for 2 years of obligated Ready Reserve, the 48 drills per year required and his 17 days of active duty per year training while Kerry was in the Ready Reserves? Have these records been released? Has
anyone ever talked to Kerry's Commanding Officer at the Naval Reserve Center where Kerry drilled?
On 1 July 1972 Lt. John Kerry was transferred to Standby Reserve - Inactive.
On 16 February 1978 Lt. John Kerry was discharged from US Naval Reserve.
Below are some of the crimes Lt. Kerry USNR committed as a Ready Reservist, while he was acting as a leader of Vietnam Veterans Against the War!
1. Lt. Kerry attended many rallies where the Vietcong flag was displayed while our flag was desecrated, defiled, and mocked, thereby giving aid and comfort to the enemy.
2. Lt. Kerry was involved in a meeting that voted on assassinating members of the US Senate.
3. Lt. Kerry lied under oath against fellow soldiers before the US Senate about crimes committed in Vietnam.
4. Lt. Kerry professed to being a war criminal on national television, and condemned the military and the USA.
5. Lt Kerry met with NVA and Vietcong communist leaders in Paris, in direct violation of the UCMJ and the U.S. Constitution.
Lt. Kerry by his own words & actions violated the UCMJ and the U.S. Code while serving as a Navy officer.
Lt. Kerry stands in violation of Article 3, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution.
Lt. Kerry's 1970 meeting with NVA Communists in Paris is in direct violation of the UCMJ's Article 104 part 904, and U.S Code 18 U.S.C. 953.
That meeting, and Kerry's subsequent support of the communists while leading mass protests against our military in the year that followed, also place him in direct violation of our Constitution's Article 3, Section 3, which defines treason as "giving aid and comfort" to the enemy in time of warfare.
The Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3, states, "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President having previously taken an oath to support the Constitution of the United States, [who has] engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemy!

I just finished watching " Stolen Honor". Anybody who votes for this heartless slime needs their heads examined. What a self serving bastard, John Kerry. See the movie and tell all who honor truth to even the smallest degree to see the movie.

Thank you for saying that. It was my honor to serve and I'd do it again even knowing what I know today.
We wish there wasn't this cover up of his records too. If only someone could get those records.

The truth will out - one way or another. There is time and then there is eternity.
To: grassboots.org
Amen, AMEN!
To be honest, we don't trust the Dems. God willing we will have President Bush for four more years. But to be honest we are prepared for the worst. Kerry, McCauliffe and company are evil.. and we believe that with sincerety.
They have proven to us that they will put power over the "good" of this country and the safety of our troops. So, we may see some sickening things unless Americans see through the smoke screens that they are erecting as I type.
For the well being of our troops and our country, we pray Americans will see through it all, but seeing the race be this close, tells me they already haven't. It shouldn't be as close as it is. Americans haven't been following the issue's like they should have been. They've been relying far too heavily on the liberal press for the information that they should have been finding out for themselves.
Praying hard for our country.. praying hard!!

And praying in faith. I am hoping we are not treated as our sins deserve. We are not worthy of the least of his blessings and we have been quite blessed the last four years.

We are not worthy of the least of his blessings and we have been quite blessed the last four years. We really have been. We can't imagine what things would have been like if it had gone the other way and Gore had won. We shudder to imagine it. Praise God!
No matter what happens, we were truly Blessed already. Lets just hope and pray Americans get out and VOTE! If we let Kerry win and he appeases the terrorists and pulls out of Iraq too soon, God protect us all. It was the "head in the sand" policies of the previous administration that allowed terrorism to flourish as it had in the first place. We can't afford to become complacent again. Look what were fighting now in the middle east and the world! They didn't become this strong overnight. We have to win this .. or our four year olds will be fighting it.

We have been especially blessed in that there have been no major attacks here since 9/11. I do account the LAX shooting of the Israeli and the Sniper shootings as terrorist attacks, however.
