REPORT FROM THE FRONT – the Vietnam Veterans against Kerry demonstration at the DNC.
Wow! This was my first experience of Political Theater since the Vietnam War. There I was in the van holding one side of a huge “Hanoi Jane/Hanoi John” banner shouting HO HO, HO CHI KERRY followed by a couple hundred of my brother Vietnam Vets and their supporters, including my own wife and nine year old daughter Barbara Jeannette.
My wife later excitedly described the excitement she felt chanting along with the guys while carrying a VETERANS AGAINST KERY sign and the pride she felt as our little daughter did the same...

Ho HO Ho Chi John
Hates America
Loves the Cong
This sounds like a lot of fun! I'm happy that you and your family got to take part in showing Kerry that he hasn't fooled everyone!
I must have missed the media coverage on this < sarcasm on bigtime>
Does anyone have the ACTUAL number of pro-kerry "swift-boat vets" vs teh anti-kerry?
the media whores NEVER state a number - the simply imply numerous by saying kerry's crew mateS, the swift boat vetS, etc... always plural but never a number!
Well done and thanks!
Wow, alright. A couple hundred of your fellow Vietnam vets? That sounds like a great rally. I haven't noticed media coverage of it of course, but you will get the word out on the street. Great job!
Thanks for the report. Is there a rally this evening?
Here is an excerpt from the lead story on DrudgeReport.com:
But a group of veterans will soon try to convince a nation how what is presented on the convention stage tonight -- may not be the full story: "Only 2 of John Kerry's 23 fellow Swift boat commanders from Coastal Division 11 support his candidacy today."
Thanks to all of you and KEEP STIRRING THE POT.
