In the Vietnamese Communist War Remnants Museum (formerly known as the "War Crimes Museum") in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), a photograph of John Kerry hangs in a room dedicated to the anti-war activists who helped the Vietnamese Communists win the Vietnam War. The photograph shows Senator Kerry being greeted by the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Comrade Do Muoi. Senator Kerry may argue today that his anti-war protests did not render support to the enemy in time of war and that his activities did not violate the definition of treason given in Article III, Section 3,...

Lone Vietnam Vet Protests Kerry at Radio City Concert on 7/8 Greetings everyone.I was just walking past Radio City Music Hall in NYC a few minutes ago and remembered that the delayed "Stars for Kerry" concert is going on tonight.  Might be a good FReep possibility if folks are available.The one person who's there already is a lone Vietnam Veteran with a few protest signs and a bible.  He's associated with the Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry website.There's a crowd of mostly female NY libs milling around the Radio City so he was happy to speak to someone with words...

Kerry’s Salute It should come as no surprise that the liberal media has ignored the Kerry incident at the Vietnam Memorial, where the presidential hopeful’s immature and disrespectful behavior demonstrates once again that he is unfit to be the commander in chief of a nation at war. To be sure, there are numerous puff pieces by liberal reporters oohing and aahing about the Wall being a “touchstone” for Kerry. A less charitable assessment might be that it served more as a soapbox. This Memorial Day grandstanding from the man who rebuked the very concept of war memorials: “We will not...

Former Green Beret Ted Sampley, who confronted Sen. John Kerry at Washington, D.C.'s Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall on Monday, said today that photographers were in the vicinity and may have captured Kerry "flipping the bird" to him. "There were some cameras," Sampley told WTN-Nashville radio host Steve Gill. "A reporter came up to me and asked me my name." "I assume it was a reporter. It may have been somebody from the Kerry campaign," added Sampley, who heads up the group Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry. As reported Monday by NewsMax.com's John Leboutillier, the veterans advocate approached the top Democrat...

Democratic Senator - and certain presidential nominee - John F. Kerry gave the middle finger to a Vietnam veteran at the Vietnam Memorial Wall on Memorial Day morning, NewsMax.com has learned. Ted Sampley, a former Green Beret who served two full tours in Vietnam, spotted Kerry and his Secret Service detail at about 9:00 AM Monday morning at the Wall. Sampley walked up to Kerry, extended his hand and said, "Senator, I am Ted Sampley, the head of Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry, and I am here to escort you away from the Wall because you do not belong here."...

Yes: There is no doubt that Kerry's protesting gave aid and comfort to the enemy while U.S. soldiers were on the battlefield. Sen. John Forbes Kerry, the not-yet-crowned Democratic presidential candidate, is no patriot. During the Vietnam War he allied himself with enemies of the United States. He committed treason by campaigning under the flag of the Viet Cong enemy against the effort of the United States to contain the spread of communism. He used the blood of servicemen still in the field for his own political advancement by claiming that their blood was being shed unnecessarily or in vain....

Here's Your Kerry AD, Mr. President! About The Picture As a key VVAW leader, organizer and spokesman, Kerry marched in demonstrations where there was a clear presence and "abundance of Vietcong flags, clenched fists raised in the air, and placards plainly bearing legends in support of China, Cuba, the USSR, North Korea and the Hanoi government." Kerry was a vocal supporter of the "People's Peace Treaty," a supposed "people's" declaration to end the war, reportedly drawn up in communist East Germany. It included nine points, all of which were taken from Viet Cong (Vietnamese Communist) peace proposals at the Paris...

Despite the prayers and wishful thinking of POW/MIA families and Vietnam veteran activists, Sen. John Forbes Kerry, the "chameleon" senator from Massachusetts, was re-elected to the Senate in the 1996 election. Apparently Kerry's well publicized history as a longtime radical supporter of the Vietnamese communists and a recent flap about whether or not he is guilty of a war crime meant very little to the voters in Massachusetts. Sen. Kerry, the "noble statesman" and "highly decorated Vietnam vet" of today, is a far cry from Kerry, the radical, hippie-like leader of Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) in the early...

Sen. Kerry, the "noble statesman" and "highly decorated Vietnam vet" of today, is a far cry from Kerry, the radical, hippie-like leader of Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) in the early 1970s. Soon after Kerry, as a Navy Lieutenant (junior grade) commanding a Swift boat in Vietnam, was awarded the Silver Star, he used an obscure Navy regulation to leave Vietnam and his crew before completing his tour of duty. After returing home, he quit the Navy early and changed the color of his politics to become a leader of VVAW. Kerry wasted no time organizing opposition in the...

A Vietnam veterans organization and a Vietnamese-American group have united in opposition to Democratic presidential front-runner Sen. John Kerry. "We represent hundreds of thousand of American veterans who do not want to see John Kerry anywhere near the Oval Office," said Ted Sampley, founder of Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry. Sampley is a U.S. Army Green Beret and veteran of two combat tours in Vietnam. Said Sampley: "I have personally dealt with John Kerry on the issue of U.S. POWs left behind in Vietnam. Kerry is not truthful and is not worthy of the support of U.S. veterans. Many Vietnam...

<p>War can bring out the best in a man, but sometimes men who excel in war are flops — even flip-flops — when peace falls across the land.</p> <p>John Kerry, for example. He didn't stay in Vietnam long, but long enough to shoot up a hooch, collect three Purple Hearts and a Silver Star. For this he rightly earned the nation's gratitude, which is more than a considerable number of politicians of both parties earned for their draft dodging, bobbing and weaving.</p>

From the Right: John Kerry vs Oliver North John Kerry Senator and democratic presidential candidate John Kerry has received some media scrutiny for his claim that when he voted for the war in Iraq, he only approved the threat of force. That waffling has made some question whether he can be trusted to protect the national security interests of the United States. But the media have failed to challenge some of his other foreign policy claims. One of the ironies in Senator John Kerry's campaign for president is that he's a Vietnam veteran who has made another Vietnam veteran, Oliver...

Dear Senator Kerry: Since it has become clear that you will probably be the Democratic nominee for President, I have spent a great deal of time researching your war record and your record as a professional politician. The reason is simple, you aspire to be the Commander in Chief who would lead my sons and their fellow soldiers in time of war. I simply wanted to know if you possess the necessary qualifications to be trusted in that respect. You see I belong to a family of proud U.S. veterans. I was a Captain in the Army Reserve, my father...

Does anyone know of any Anti-Democrat or Anti-Kerry websites?

KINSTON -- Vietnam veteran Ted Sampley has his mouth locked, loaded and ready to fire. Ask him about Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry and he cuts loose. He calls the Massachusetts senator "Hanoi John" because of his opposition to the Vietnam War. Kerry is a traitor, he says, not fit to be commander in chief. It's a view that might ordinarily be dismissed as political rhetoric in an election year. But Sampley, an outspoken advocate for missing servicemen, is not easily ignored. Tapping his extensive contacts with veterans and the range of the Internet, he has mounted a campaign against...

Joe: Please pass this out to your list. I was refraining from writing but sometimes people have to hear first hand accounts for them to THINK about the casting of their vote. This is a bit long, but we are talking about the office of the President; those who cast a vote against George Bush simply to cast such a vote, should know the man that they are casting their vote for, John Kerry, is not who they are reading about. Joe, you know me and know that I have been involved with the POW/MIA issue for more than 1/2...

WHEN John Knoll created Photoshop in 1989, he knew he was designing an image-editing program that could be used in good ways and bad. But even Mr. Knoll, who wrote the software with his brother, Tom, was unprepared for how outlandish photo manipulation would become. "When we worked on it, mostly we saw the possibilities, the cool things," said Mr. Knoll, 41. "Not how it would be abused." The same tools that can be used to crop, retouch and otherwise edit digital images can be used just as easily to distort, alter and fabricate them. With Photoshop and similar programs...
