Anyone know how to enhance this little audio clip with some machine gun fire, explosions and screams in the background?

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

NBC isn't the only one stopping the truth from getting out.
All 5 of the major liberal media FOX, CNN, NBC, ABC and CBS are keeping the truth hidden.

"There are all kinds of atrocities, and I would have to say that, yes, yes, I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed in that I took part in shootings in free fire zones. I conducted harassment and interdiction fire. I used 50 calibre machine guns, which we were granted and ordered to use, which were our only weapon against people. I took part in search and destroy missions, in the burning of villages. All of this is contrary to the laws of warfare, all of this is contrary to the Geneva Conventions and all of this is ordered as a matter of written established policy by the government of the United States from the top down. And I believe that the men who designed these, the men who designed the free fire zone, the men who ordered us, the men who signed off the air raid strike areas, I think these men, by the letter of the law, the same letter of the law that tried Lieutenant Calley, are war criminals."

-- John Kerry, on NBC's "Meet the Press" April 18, 1971

THANK YOU!!

hanoi john committs atrocities yet he doesn't want the survivors of homicide victims to have the death penalty as a form of justice.

He'll give the killer of a 5 year old American girl a 'pass' with just a prison sentence.

KING: I've done a lot of shows recently dealing with the death of little children. A person who kills a 5-year-old should live?

KERRY: Larry, my instinct is to want to strangle that person with my own hands. I understand the instincts, I really do. I prosecuted people. I know what the feeling of the families is and everybody else.

MY NOTE: BULL HOCKEY, unless you walk in a homicide victims survivors shoes you can't 'know' what they are feeling. hanoi sure doesn't know how DK and I feel about loosing our son to a sociopathic killer. Who only got a measley 20 year plea bargain and served only 14.5 years of it.

But we have 111 people who have been now released from death row -- death row, let alone the rest of the prison system -- because of DNA evidence that showed they didn't commit the crime of which they were convicted.

After spending -- I myself worked to get a person out of jail who had been there for 15 years for a murder that person did not commit.

Now, our system has made mistakes, and it's been applied in a way that I think is wrong.

Secondly, I don't believe that, in the end, you advance the, sort of, level of your justice and the system of your civility as a nation -- and many other nations in the world, most of the other nations in the world, have adopted that idea, that the state should not engage in killing.

(APPLAUSE)

Because they have very bad memories of what happens when the state engages in killing.

"Yes, I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed in that I took part in shootings in free fire zones. I conducted harassment and interdiction fire. I used 50 caliber machine guns, which we were granted, ordered to use which were our only weapon against people. I took part in search and destroy missions in the burning of villages.

[doug from upland]

Can anyone imagine a commander in chief out protesting against his government while he is the commander in chief? If anyone could do it, it is Effin Kerry.

[backhoe]

Wow! I don't see how Kerry can dodge impeaching himself, with his own words.

[Lurking in Kansas]

listen when I get home from work.

[O.C. - Old Cracker]

First off, let me make it very clear that I think John Kerry is a traitor and a liar. However, saying that he is guilty of war crimes means that the U.S. commited war crimes when we fire bombed Dresden and nuked Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I for one am not in the least ashamed of our countrymen for My Lai, or Hirosohima, or Nagasaki or even Sherman's burning of Atlanta.

This is not how to defeat Kerry. His arrogance after returning and his teaming up with Jane Fonda and the VVAW is how to attack his war record. He turned his back on his countrymen during time of war and mocked the sacrifice of his comrades.

[lilylangtree]

"Yes, I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed in that I took part in shootings in free fire zones.

"Uh, I conducted harassment and interdiction fire.

"I used 50 caliber machine guns, which we were granted, ordered to use which were our only weapon against people.

"I took part in search and destroy missions in the burning of villages.

"All of this is contrary to the laws of warfare.

"All of this is contrary to the Geneva Conventions."

Thanks for the heads up on the correction.

[Callahan]

So are we going to sit here jawing or turn this into campaign commercial pronto and start running it in Florida, Pennsylvania and Ohio from now til election day?

Images of burned villages

Narrator: John Kerry says everone was doing it. That's his exscuse. But President George Bush knows that leadership isn't about going along with the crowd. Especially when it comes to America's place in the world.

John Kerry: "I took part in search and destroy missions in the burning of villages. All of this is contrary to the laws of warfare. All of this is contrary to the Geneva Conventions."


Narrator: "Speak for yourself, Senator Kerry--not for America."

[cake_crumb]

"How do commit war crimes of the nature that he admits to from a boat?"

Darned good question. Kerry sure was a busy boy in 'Nam, to have pulled off all those 'heroic' actions AND commit ALL those war crimes...all in the space of 4 months.

He must have the ability to TIME TRAVEL!!

CALLING WUSSLEY CLARK!!

[cspackler]

I just wonder how he found the time to raze, rape, & pillage in addition to getting wounded three times and pulling doomed soldiers out of the water under heavy enemy fire.

All in about 3 months no less...

Thanks.
