Thank you for being so organized, and sharing that with us. I bet you could straighten out the clutter around my house. Maybe after the re-election?
No, you should see my house, I neglect everything and my wife is being wonderful about it but I don't know how much longer she will be that way.
Thanks for putting this together.
Quite a list, isn't it? Kind of flies in the face of Kerry's claim that he resigned from the VVAW when they're working on his campaign!!!
Yes quite a list. And there is NO record that Kerry EVER resigned fromt he VVAW. Only that he said he did, no copy of the document has ever been provided, the VVAW says they can't find it.

Yes, and as you and I both know, the FBI files specifically say he didn't resign, he only resigned from the National Executive Committee but said he would still be active in the organization and available for speaking. Kerry's relationship with the VVAW may have become more informal/covert after November 1971, but it remains ongoing to this day.
Here is an article that claims that Kerry was a national leader after the November 1971 meeting in KC.

During his 1972 campaign Kerry continued to associate with the VVAW. A Portsmouth paper covering Kerry’s January 1972 Dartmouth speech described him as “head of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War”, while a New York Times article on the event described him as “spokesman for Vietnam Veterans Against the War. The FBI files on the VVAW include a clipping of an April 4, 1972 Boston Globe article announcing Kerry’s Congressional run which states, “Kerry has led the Vietnam Veterans Against the War since returning from Vietnam two years ago.” Kerry was again described as “a leader of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War” in an Illinois newspaper article covering a New York demonstration he spoke at on April 22, 1972 which was organized by the NPAC and PCPJ and coordinated with the VVAW. Papers continued to describe Kerry as a VVAW representative throughout his Congressional campaign, and even afterwords into 1973. VVAW financial statements from early 1972 list a significant percentage of income and expenditures related to Kerry’s November 1971 book The New Soldier and the book’s editors George Butler and David Thorne. Thorne, who was Kerry’s best friend and the brother of his first wife, served as Kerry’s campaign manager in 1972. Chris Gregory, who became one of Kerry’s most active campaign staffers in subsequent years, remained associated with the New England VVAW in 1972. Kerry’s sister Peggy joined leading New York VVAW member Sheldon Ramsdell at a hotel where the VVAW protested the August 1972 Republican National Convention.
Looks as though the research we have been doing is getting out.
I am very disappointed that the Soros factor is not being picked up by Bush campaign strategists. As far as I'm concerned, it is one of the two or three MAJOR issues of this Presidential race!!!! And I do hope that the Republicans have a VERY effective defense against Soros' plan to steal the election!!
Morton Halperin is also a leader in George Soros' "human rightser" group "The Open Society Institute". Halperin is yet another communist turned international fascist, just like sKerry!!!!
Communism may have ended up on the scrap-heap of history over a decade ago, but traitors keep finding new and even WORSE ways to be traitors!!!!
