Why wasn't this man arrested for treasonous activities? He keeps calling for Rummy's resignation over Abu Ghraib but Ketchupman did far worse. Why isn't there an outcry for Ketchupman to step down and by tried by his peers for his treason?

Just remember, the RATS think of this as one of Kerry's finest moments. They are very proud of him for this, and for helping America lose the war.

Some sweet old lady just called in and said Kerry is a lier.
She just pointed out that he sides with COMMUNISTS!

Just wait...the DNC will now go out and attack this nice old lady.

Democrats are mean evil b@stards.

Another says his 3 months of service is better than no service.

Its amazing how many liberals are calling in and have no problem with Kerry and his anti American comments.

This just shows that Dems are anti American.

My Dad always said Vets were treated worse over here than over there.

Until his death there were establishements he would never do business with because of the way one of their employees treated him or his friends after he returned from his second tour of Nam. He never bragged about his like Kerrie does.

So let me get this straight, it is ok for Slick to dodge the draft, but it is not ok to GW to go to the national guard???

I am glad to have had the opportunity to record this event, and to be able to examine it more deliberately later.
The highlights for me were the repeated attempt at race-baiting, and the statement that made me laugh out loud, that "we", including himself, presumably, were the greatest violators of the Geneva conventions in the world!
That he had a plan and an agenda is obvious. At one point, when he took off on his planned propaganda, he had to be reminded that he was not answering the question.

And throughout the whole event, going through my mind, was the nagging question... what did he leave the service as? a lt. jg? Why did he even qualify as an "expert" of four months to testify before a senate committee? If he spent any time as a Swift Boat commander, how did he have time to "witness" first hand the plethora of negative "experiences" he was eager to share? How many speechwriters did he have the night before making up all that BS?

One "Vietnam Vet" said he served in Nam from 1975 - "well, I served four years..." --

Did somebody really call in and try and say that?!

Man, that statement didn't make me laugh. That was the statement that made my blood boil the most.

I am having flashbacks remembering what a very unhappy time that was in our nation's history. I believe this is about the time when I became a LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT type conservative. Thank God I was serving overseas most of the late 60's and early 70's for I probably would not have survived living in Conus 24/7 during the leftist movement that swept the country

As Kerry has proved over and over again he was then and is now on both sides of every issue.

A war hero and an anti-war hero both at the same time. I am livid and need a friggin drink

That's a good point. Bush has been Commander in Chief of the US Military for dang near 4 years now.

Kerry was a LT. jrgd. and was in charge of maybe 8 - 10 men, one who says Kerry sucks, for 4 months.

Exactly how does Kerry think that shows good command ability?! It does not.

Take a drink, Pisano.

Don't let that Commie b@stard Kerry get to you.

I am pouring a drink right now. And toasting your service, Sir. Thank you for Freedom.

Oh, just imagine a big Republican Elephant taking a dump on Kerry. That should work.

What Rush calls "seminar callers" have taken over C-SPAN. Just listen to any morning show. Democrat line: "I hate Bush because he ruined my life." Republican line: "I've voted Republican all my life but this year I'm for Kerry because Bush ruined my life." Independent line: "I've very non-political, but this year I'm voting for Kerry because Bush ruined my life."

I have been trying to get in on the Bush supporter line....

I quit watching the call-in segments of Cspan when they decided to separate the lines into supporter/non-supporters, Republican/Democrat, etc.

It used to be that there was one line, and whoever got in, got in. When they separated the lines, it gave the seminar "I am a Republican, but I'm voting Democrat" callers to flood the Republican lines.

It was so obvious that seminar callers were now getting into CSpan claiming to be Republicans, it was laughable.

Now watching H & C -

Hanity says he has a film which actually shows Kerry burning down villages. He says he hasn't watched it yet. What's that about?
