What did Kerry apologize for and when did he apologize? We have to know and the American people need to be assured there is not a cover-up. Haven't Americans suffered enough?

It's time to release all the photos and movies.

I'm not talking about the stuff from Iraqi prisons. I'm talking obout John Kerry and Vietnam.

There is indeed something very very strange about Kerry. He goes to Vietnam for home movies? There have been rumors he had movies taken of himself. Where are they? Let's see everything!

[Fedora]

The headline would be more accurate if it stated that Kerry's account of his view of Vietnam in the 1970s has changed since the 1970s.

[Wright is right!]

Qerry is being very consistant in his views of both Veet-nam and the Iraq war. He was for both of them before he was against them. He was also for Mediscare reform before he was against it. In fact, almost all the things he was for and now oppposes are things that Bush is doing. That's why he's against them. But if HE were doing them, THEN he'd be for them.

“Just after this I put the camera down. I had a feeling we were gonna be ambushed… and sure enough up ahead we were. And you’ll see it.”

John, if you put the camera down, how will we see the ambush? Did you pick the camera back up? And if so, why were you filming an ambush while the boat you commanded was under fire? Had some time on your hands?

This seems close to "I actually put the camera down, BEFORE I started filming the ambush"

Why the change in his comments? Critics say that in 1970, sharp criticism of the war was fashionable, while decades later, a presidential candidate would need to bolster credentials to be commander in chief.

BINGOPolitical opportunism at it's finest. He has no moral foundation, no convictions, no sense of right and wrong. A shining example of the

generation mentality. Personal power and self gratification is all that matters to some of these 1960's rejects.

I don't think it is any longer a dirty little secret, that John Kerry is a kiss-ass, pandering, say anything to get elected liberal!! 2 of the best web sites exposing John Kerry as the dangerous fraud he really is can be found at:

KERRY MUST BE DEFEATED!! AND WE CAN DO IT!!

Lisa Meyers is a competent and honorable journalist. Sooner or later the others will kill her.

Kerry was asked why, if he opposed the war, he agreed to go to Vietnam and fight. He emphasized his reluctance, saying, "I wound up going to Vietnam because in 1965, voicing an objection, as I would have liked to have at that point, would have been, I think, a very futile thing.

1965 ? Is that when he tried to get a 1 year deferrment to study in paris ?

It appears Kerry got a 6 month deferrment in 2/66, so he could graduate in 06/66. He didn't report (To The United States Naval RESERVES) until 08/66.
What's with 1965 ?

[KellyAdmirer]

Either he voiced an objection when he went, or he volunteered for a noble cause. Can't have it both ways. Were you lying then or are you lying now, Senator Kerry?

[YaYa123]

NBC TODAY SHOW presented this Lisa Myers report like an exclusive bombshell, exposing Kerry's flip flop on Viet Nam. I saw it once, never saw it repeated on MSNBC or NBC. Myers broke it last week, during the hyperventilation over Rumsfeld's senate appearance, so maybe it was destined to die on the vine. In any event, that's what happened.

I find Ketchupman's going to Vietnam and making home movies almost unbelievable. Considering the culture climate at that time, how many others were able to make home movies of their experiences in a wartime zone? His arrogance is beyond belief.

1965

The tone, temper and pace of protest against the war in 1965 was mute if not deaf. It wasn't until it became politically expediant in the latter half of the 60's and early 70's that Kerry saw fit to 'voice his opposition'.

Kerry is the equivalent of a political 'shape shifter', always trying to blend in with the issue de jour.

What a phony

[TexasCajun]

What is the statue of limitations on JFK's war crimes that he's admitted to under oath?

[river rat]

Kerry's view on EVERYTHING is subject to change....
Semper Fi

[pfflier]

Kerry's view changing...there's a shocker.

[Sybeck1]

A recent NBC News poll found that even 71% of Republicans agree that Kerry served honorably. It also found that voters say what they like least about Kerry is him “straddling both sides of issues.”


I'm in the 29% minority on this.

I like this part:

"On the Cavett show, Kerry also showed films he shot in Vietnam, explaining the video, saying, saying, “You see a bunker being taken under fire. In fact, we’re under fire at this point and you can see some shots coming out, landing in the water.” He added, “Just after this I put the camera down. I had a feeling we were gonna be ambushed… and sure enough up ahead we were. And you’ll see it.”

Brinkley says Kerry compiled material to bolster his case against the war, telling Cavett, “I took these pictures in a moment of confusion,” explaining, “There you see the huts burning, and this, this is the enemy, so to speak, in South Vietnam.”

Kerry told Cavett, “I was constantly struck by the juxtaposition of those of us running around with guns and the body lying there in the field. There you see the huts burning.”

WHERE ARE THESE VIDEOS???????

We have seen him stalking in the jungle like Bigfoot (bet you never see that commercial again without thinking "Bigfoot"!) but where are the videos referenced above? They are a MUST GET!

I thought he was in the Navy .. on a Swift Boat??
