KERRY’S VIETNAM VETERANS AGAINST THE WAR WERE IN DIRECT COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE NORTH VIETNAMESE AND VIET CONG COMMUNISTS COORDINATING ANTI-WAR ACTIVITIES IN AMERICA

Kerry and his ilk were in direct communications with the Communists and coordinating anti-war activities in America. Go here FBI FILES and check out pages 21 through 25 for proof.

Kerry betrayed America, he betrayed his fellow Vietnam Veterans, and he betrayed our POW’s and their families.

KERRY also went to Paris and met with the Communist North Vietnamese and the Communist Viet Cong representatives to discuss how America should surrender. KERRY then came back to America and went on TV to spew the Communist’s propaganda. KERRY IS A TRAITOR TO AMERICA.

Even a World War II veteran paused to come over and call him a coward.

There is a special place in hell for that man.

This is a bombshell!
Finally, someone that was there is coming out and telling another side of this story.

Thanks IT for getting it out there.
Thanks to Steve Pitkin for coming forward. He is a brave one.

I have a dream that one day, after this election and Kerry loses, we can put the Vietnam Era to rest with Honors. And John Kerry can move to France never to be heard from again.

His is a really sad story. He was rejected by his family and friends- even by strangers. It is awful to think about the way Vietnam vets were treated on their return. No wonder so many of them have had problems.
I applaud his apology, though. He can't undo the cruelty shown to him but he can correct the misstatements made years ago through VVAW.

I believe him, but if he gets traction, Kerry & Co. will say that no one should trust an admitted liar.

Kerry said, "Surely you had to have seen some of the atrocities." Pitkin insisted that he hadn't, and the group's mood turned menacing. One of the other leaders leaned in and whispered, "It’s a long walk back to Baltimore."

This bears repeating..
