"...I attended a conference in Boston this July on "The Myths of the Vietnam War" which examined the shallowness and the one-sidedness of the news coverage of that war. On the same Thursday night that Kerry made his grand entrance at the Democratic Convention, I joined 200 anti-Kerry Vietnam veterans, former American and South Vietnamese POWs, and surviving Vietnamese Boat People, in a march of protest to the front of the Convention Hall.
Not one major news outlet cared to interview us, and there were thousands of media people there. We marched to Kerry's condo on the Hill, and had a ceremonial reenactment of his throwing his medals back. POW Mike Benge and another South Vietnamese POW who had spent 20 years in a prison camp in North Vietnam marched at my sides. John Kerry's actions had betrayed everyone involved in our protest. We chanted, "Good men died while John Kerry lied!"...
But ABC, AP, CBS, CNN, FOX, MSNBC, NBC, NY Times
made sure you knew about the Bush phony National Guard documents!
Thanks for the ping.
Yet something else to be grateful for: Ours was an unKerry Christams.
Good idea; needs a little polish.
How about "A Nary Kerry Christmas."
and you even typed "Christmas" correctly. :^)
Bravo! Great post, great article. Proud contributor to the SwiftVets. I gave them 150% of what I gave to the Bush-Cheney campaign.

They never lost their honor among the American people, just the Old Media and extreme left whackos. There just wasn't any countervailing media giving favorable publicity to returning veterans.
But all across the country they were being elected to city councils, statehouses and school boards. Employers were wanting the maturity and self discipline of veterans.
They were heroes to their friends and families if not to Hollywood.
CRONKITE - RATHER - KERRY
STILL LIE!
While over 58,000 Brothers and Sisters
cry out for justice, once and for all.
BTTT
bttt
Thanks for the ping!
Yes..our heros. Not to the biased media but in our hearts were it counts.
"They never lost their honor among the American people, just the Old Media and extreme left whackos."
You should have been in my shoes in Sept 69 in Chicago
I had just got out of the Navy.
I was denied admission to Northwestern University and
learned NOT to even mention that I was a Viet Nam Vet
on job interviews.
And the left were empowered more when
Hanoi Kerry "testified" in April 71
Odd I was there when Hanoi Kerry was.
He STILL serves illegally as a US Senator.
Wonder if I could be a US Senator also?
Got my vote
EXCELLENT PHOTO!!!!
May I help it be dropped all about?
Wonder if I could be a US Senator also?

You go for it. Maybe the freepers will be behind you too. Do you have enough bull for the job? Tee Hee.

Once and for all...
the 58,000 Americans who gave all they had for the Freedom of Others...
the many 1,000's more Free South Vietnamese Soldiers who did the same...
the 1.5 Million poor S.E. Asian Souls who lost their lives after the Fall of Saigon...
the many 1,000's of suddenly enslaved South Vietnamese who were put in tortorous Concentration Camps for up to 13 years after the Fall of Saigon...
the many more who lost their lives on the high seas fleeing communist tyrany after the Fall of Saigon...
and...
the many survivors of all this who made it here to a Free America and registered by the 1,000's in Little Saigon last year to vote against their mutual Enemy Within JOHN KERRY...
...ALL CRY OUT now FOR THE JUSTICE they all so richly deserve.
