John Kerry: Undermining The War On Terror Is Okay.. If Democrats Can Benefit Politically From It

John Kerry, who has recently redefined patriotism in a way that makes him sound the country's number one patriot, has come out in defense of the CIA officer who was fired for disclosing classified information that undoubtedly undermines the war on terror. He must think that is a patriotic act as well.
Kerry told George Stephanopoulos on ABC This Week that he's "glad she told the truth but she's going to obviously -- if she did it, if she did it, suffer the consequences of breaking the law."
Kerry essentially admitted that if classified information is leaked, it is only okay if it can advance the Democrats' anti-Bush agenda, but when information is specifically declassified for the purpose of educating the American people on the necessity to continue the War on Terror in Iraq that it is a "disgrace."
"Here's my fundamental view of this," Kerry said, "that you have somebody being fired from the CIA for allegedly telling the truth, and you have no one fired from the White House for revealing a CIA agent in order to support a lie.

The only thing I want from John F'ing Kerry is a signed 180 so we can determine if he's held elective office illegally all these years! Then, I want his A$$ tried for treason which should have happened the first time around!!!

Now, "experts" please tell me again how the rat will retake the Congress. Look, the process is simple. Issues come up. The rat responds. People are reminded of whose side the rat is on. The rat loses seats. Any questions?

Kerry received a less than honorable discharge from the United States Navy, based on his antiwar activities, plus his travel to Paris to conduct private negotiations with the North Vietnamese Communists and the Viet Cong while America was at war with them, he violated U.S. law and should have been court martialed.
Kerry's discharge was upgraded to "honorable" during the disgraceful Carter Administration, and that is why Kerry will refuse until his dying day to release ALL of his military records.
Anybody think this isn't true?
Get John F'in Kerry to release the records and prove it ain't.

The only way to put an end to these treasonous acts is to stand one in front of a firing squad. This will give them the idea that they will be held accountable for their actions. Second, stand the second one before a firing squad. This will give them the idea that this could be serious and you will be put to death if found guilty of treasonous acts against America. Thirdly, stand the third one before a firing squad. They will eventually realize that it may not be worth dying for and no one views it as whistle blowing any longer.

You're right on, mkjessup, regarding Kerry's cover up. And IrishMike is on the mark regarding what it will take to dry up these 'leaks'. The sad fact is, however, it'll never happen; Kerry will never release his 180 and we'll never begin executing these traitors. Unbelievably, a sizable portion of the public doesn't even see them as traitors.

Interesting isn't it that JFKerry is the highest elected liberal coming out in support of this old gal. Just hmmmmm. I am waiting for Hillry's blessing on the high level leaking by her good old gal network.
To: bcsco
Kerry did sign a restricted 180 for the Boston Globe and another paper if I recall correctly. What I want to see is the documentation for his first PH, the one his immediate superior refused to process and was approved after Kerry was transferred to another command.

I think you may be right. At least in a presidential election. I'm afraid there are way to many idiots in this country to draw the connection that legislators profoundly impact our geo-political policies. I have so many friends that are just plain ignorant when it comes to civics. Most can't even name their own Congressman or Senators. These are college educated people to. I think anyone that is not an idealogue or a washed up hippy, not part of a brainwashed "minority" group, or otherwise, not a lesbian midget who wants to save the trees, is insane for voting for the Democratic party.

Under his morality, it would be entirely appropriate for someone in the DOD or whoever holds his records, to leak the information to the press. As long as the "truth" were told, that act would be entirely acceptable.
To: kabar
This has been such a spun issue I can't recall exactly what's transpired. It's conclusive, though, he hasn't been completely forthcoming with the public and stalls all investigations into his past while claiming to champion discolsure of government classified information.
His deceit and hypocrisy know no bounds.

On May 20,2005, Kerry signed a document called Standard Form 180, authorizing the Navy to send an ''undeleted" copy of his ''complete military service record and medical record" to the Globe.
Asked why he delayed signing the form for so long, Kerry said in a written response: ''The call for me to sign a 180 form came from the same partisan operatives who were lying about my record on a daily basis on the Web and in the right-wing media. Even though the media was discrediting them, they continued to lie. I felt strongly that we shouldn't kowtow to them and their attempts to drag their lies out."
I don't ever remember the GLOB releasing any new stuff

Kerry, like Clinton, is a traitor.
That this low-life is still in politics is a "tribute" to the moral and ethical apathy of the majority of Massschusetts voters who keep sending that manslaughter or worse piece of overstuffed, alcoholic offal, Ted the Swimmer back to COngress.

From what I recall he signed a limited 180 and gave permission to release all but approximately 100 pages. I want to see the missing pages...

If Kerry had been charged for treason after his return from Nam, found guilty and shot on the Capitol steps with Ted Kennedy as a co traitor, then had their bodies strung up and left on the nearest light pole.
None of this traitor bs would be happening today. Millions of lives would have been saved in SE Asia, as we would have won the war in Nam. Later Carter would not have been elected to set up the Islamofascist in Iran. Gaoline would probably still be way under a $/gallon.

Senator John Fing Kerry was a traitor before Mary McTraitor became a traitor.
