Diary Bombshell: Kerry Met with Terrorists

Diary Bombshell: Kerry Met with Terrorists

In a bombshell development that could have turned President Bush's victory into a landslide had it come out before the election, John Kerry wrote in his Vietnam war diary that he met "terrorists" in Paris - a revelation that "flabbergasted" his running mate John Edwards.

All during the campaign, Kerry had adamantly refused to release his diary, claiming that he'd given exclusive rights to use the document to his biographer, Douglas Brinkely. But when Brinkley told reporters that wasn't true, Kerry still declined to make the diary public.

In a Newsweek article it says that only about 15 seconds of Kerry's three hour footage has Kerry in it. According to John O'Neil Kerry brought the camera with him because he was against the war and wanted to boost his case. He didn't think he would have to be in combat when he signed up. The situation changed after Kerry had already signed up. It would be near impossible to get anybodies heroics on video. Thats why I don't buy that theory.

This was going on before the SBVFT even formed, and long before "Unfit For Command."

I tried to get the story into the MSM back in February. I talked to some top people in various networks--even Halperin at ABC News. (Before I knew how hopeless that was.) I showed them Kerry's own testimony about meeting with the NVN and VC in Paris in 1970--from his sworn Senate testimony.

They were not interested. They just wanted to know who I was and who in the GOP was paying me. It was absolutely chilling how clearly they were working fulltime for Kerry.

"WAS IT HELLO KITTY DIARY? WHO ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH KEEPS A DIARY IN A POLITICAL RACE?"

This is from the diary Kerry kept in Vietnam--which he brought along a typewriter to type, so that history would be able to read his deep musings.

Kerry shill and buttboy Brinkley had (supposedly limited) access to the diary for his "biography" of Kerry. So he has known this for years even.

Remember, Brinkley said that he was going to show how Kerry's diary cleared up his lie about being in Cambodia in December 1968. He was going to do a New Yorker article about it. That is how they put that lie to bed.

Of course Brinkley never got around to writing any such article. But the media just ignored that inconvenient fact.

Hi Manny,

Who are you that you have access to "top people in various networks..."?

BTW, through my contacts I asked Brinkley what he knew about Kerry's meetings with the NVM and VC in Paris in 1970. He claimed he never had heard about it before. That it was news to him.

He didn't deny it had happened. How could he, since it is in Kerry's own sworn testimony? But he said he never knew about it.

I thought he was lying then, since even the most inept biographer would have had to have waded through Kerry's "historic" testimony to the Senate. It's what made him famous.

Brinkley is a total whore.

Douglas Brinkley was hoping to be the official court historian of the Kerry administration. He has a long track record of being a sycophant for Democratic politicians.

If Edwards were a man of honor, he would have resigned as V.P. candidate and then spilled the beans...but he's an ambulance-chasing trial lawyer, so we wouldn't expect him to take the ethical option.

I'm a nobody. But since I was presenting them with documentable news I got some calls returned. But like I said, they only were interested in finding out who was paying me to be a GOP dirty trickster.

When I told them nobody, they lost all interest. The facts didn't matter a damn to them.

Yet once more I thank God that Bush won. The last thing America needs is an appeasenik in the White House (or controlling Congress).

Viva the Bush Mandate, baby!

SF 180 would tell all. So would careful scrutiny of all of Carter's pardons.

Being pardoned against a putative charge of treason or of consorting with the enemy (or even the Logan Act) would be very nearly as deadly to al-Qerry as being convicted of said charge(s).

If Edwards had exposed Kerry - and resigned as the VP candidate .. does anybody think Edwards could have been more of a viable candidate for 2008. But .. because he was willing to hide that information .. is he as guilty ..??

Thanks, Manny, for your efforts.
I guess the MSM's response was positively predictable.

Well I eventually did get the story out, just not into the MSM per se. And I like to think it had an effect.

Thanks for your thanks.

John Edwards was "flabbergasted" by the news, Newsweek said. He recognized immediately how important it was to keep Kerry's terrorist confab secret.

Sure, but can he sue?
