Email from John Kerry (I stood up to the Nixon administration and spoke out for a change in Vietnam)
email | Communist John Kerry

Posted on 04/19/2006 10:04:05 AM PDT by hipaatwo

Dear hipaatwo,

One general after another demanding Rumsfeld's resignation. More citizens every day joining in support of our May 15 deadline for Iraqi leaders to stop their squabbling and form a government.

In these and many other ways, because of citizens like you, the wheel is slowly, but surely, turning on the question of Iraq. Over the next ten days, we're going to give it another huge push. But, before I tell you more, please take a moment right now to sign in support of the Kerry Iraq plan:

Sign our Out of Iraq in 2006 petition now. http://www.johnkerry.com/action/deadline/?sc=e.20060418

It's time for Iraq's leaders to seize the opportunity for democracy in Iraq that our troops are sacrificing every day to create. If Iraq's leaders can't move past their infighting and endless delays to form a new government by May 15, we should immediately withdraw all of our troops. If they meet the May 15 deadline, we'll bring America's combat troops home by the end of the year and put the future of democracy in Iraq where it belongs -- in the hands of the Iraqi people.

The clarity and precision of our plan stand in sharp contrast to the aimless approach of the architects of this war -- Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld. All across America, people are strongly dissenting from the Bush administration's "stay for as long as it takes" policy -- and, just as important, standing up to the administration's attempts to vilify and question the patriotism of those who dare to speak out.

Decades ago I stood up to the Nixon administration and spoke out for a change of course in Vietnam. Four days from now, I will be delivering a speech at Boston's Faneuil Hall on the critically important topic of war and dissent. It's time to remind America that, when a stubborn president has America headed profoundly in the wrong direction, only citizen action can change our country's course.

The fight is just beginning. I recognize the importance of the United States Senate as an institution that can help change America's course. And I know that we can't force George W. Bush to confront reality in Iraq until we force the Senate to do the same.

Sign our Out of Iraq in 2006 petition now. http://www.johnkerry.com/action/deadline/?sc=e.20060418

I will be acting in the Senate to bring change beginning when the current congressional recess ends on Monday. And I will be needing your help to move the Senate to action.

Working together, we can make the next 10 days an important turning point on Iraq -- and we can build momentum as our May 15 deadline approaches. You can help right now in three important ways. First, sign the Out of Iraq in 2006 petition. Second, forward this email to as many people as possible. And third, pay special attention to your email over the next 10 days.

Events could move quickly -- and you may need to act in a matter of hours. http://www.johnkerry.com/action/deadline/?sc=e.20060418

Sincerely,

John Kerry

So, what is John Kerry going to do if Iraq doesn't have a government by May 15? Is he going to invade or something?

Maybe he'll get the french to f*rt in their general direction.

John Kerry spoke out against the war after the White House had a Republican President. Not when Lyndon Johnson occupied the Executive Office.

He supported the war before he opposed it.

Hey, Kerry's comrades are winning with the public and quite a few on FR.

It looks as if his and the MSM's propaganda has worked.

Sad.

Decades ago I stood up to with Ho Chi Minh against the capitalist dog Nixon administration and spoke out for a change of course capitulation to the glorious republic of North Vietnam.

There that's more accurate.

It took our country over 200 years to be where we are today. It took both Germany and Japan over 50 years to be where they are today. BTW, we still have bases in both countries.

Now let's look at Iraq. It's been what 3 years, and John Kerry is saying this is a mistake???

Dear John,

So, after watching others call for a resignation, you decide to get off the fence and call for it as well? Isn't that special. Once again, you show yourself to be a follower, not a leader.

And when are you going to release your Military 180 forms?

More accurate missive from John SKERRY:

Dear Fellow World Socialists,

I wish to reiterate my qualifications for Traitor in Chief . . . or is it Chief Dunce . . . Would you believe Chief (inadequate) Giggalo?

I began to excell in kindergarten where I sucked my thumb the most hours per day and well past the first knuckle. Some of my classmates cheered me on whenever they saw me sitting in the corner enraptured with my thumb. They claimed I'd be an Olympic Thumb Sucker some day.

They used to marvel at the many positions I could suck my thumb in--including standing on my head. Given my early great stature, this was a feat of considerable accomplishment.

My classmates would also write lengthy reviews of the many creative methods I used in sucking my thumb. There were the 101 types of inserctions. That was a lovely little book they collected those reviews into--complete with Crayon Color illustrations showing the various colors of drool depending on what I'd just been eating. Lovely graphics.

Then there were the reviews about the various expressions I could make with my thumb as the star player. They would have collected those reviews into a book, too but the teacher confiscated it as tooooo obscene--whatever that meant.

All in all, I think that my precocious thumb sucking was a great precursor to my eventual greatness. I often return to those cheery exercises in fits of nostalgia. Of course, we had to keep photos of such out of the campaign. More mature Republicans would just not understand the joys of extended infancy--the old fuddy duddies.

But, I want to alert all you great globalists that as I look upon the political landscape, there is just no one with my qualifications able to take the reins of power and steer us confidently into the tyrannical globalist government like I am.

Oh, granted, Shrillery is more ruthless, more power greedy, more satanic and a list of other wonderful qualifications. But the fact is, she never mastered the fine art of thumb sucking. Just imagine what she'd have to do every crisis--take more valium or call for Reno and another merry game of "who's got the dillbo?"

But with my Olympic class thumb sucking skills, I'd be equal to any challenge and as calm as any spoiled brat in a corner. I could commandeer all the toys better than anyone with great confidence with my thumb firmly implanted triumphantly.

So, I hope you will give me early consideration as I ponder whether I should run again for Traitor in Chief.

And don't forget, I went to Viet . . . what was that place . . . Viet . . . . oh, yeah, Viet Nam.

Thank you Jeeves. Oh, Jeeves, please for a thumb wipe.

Thanks you.

Yeah.

He got a purple heart for having a tiny metal splnter removed from - his hand I believe. It took a pair of tweezers asa most of the small spinter was sticking out of his skin.

Probably something the average guy gets working around metal bolts and screws in his basement.

Is this letter for real??

Kerry once again demonstrates why he lost the election - no brains.

Too bad the RINO's think it's OK
for hanoi kerry to be in the US Senate,
and attack our troops,
and have the nerve to censure real Viet Nam Vets
who call for the traitor to be held fully accountable!
The same RINO's who were the "silent majority" in the 60's and 70's
and who caved in to the minority looney left.

Hey John! You are a douche bag, loser, anal housing unit. You are a fraud and a scumbag. You got beat like a red headed stepchild. Go sh*t in your hat!

We, the rightful vets of THAT war, took you apart, lie by lie. You are the worst scum of the earth, a phony hero.

Run again, pallie, we'll crush you again. This time it will be fun. We ain't dead yet!

John, you are a coward and a traitor, and you know it. Facing those brave men on the other side must make your bowels irritable, or not. I forget, you have no conscience.

I think we should do what someone else on FR suggested. We should all send him an envelope (and maybe the Viet Nam flag) requesting he release ALL his military to the public.
