Being a “Buffoon” is the least of Kerry’s sins.

How about a total narcisstic, self-promoting, lying psychopath and communist sympathizer?

My gentle side is trying not to say what I really feel and know about him.

But I will ask, like Clevon Little in “Blazing Saddles”, “Where’s the firing squad at”?

Excellent summary of Joan Queer:

“Being a “Buffoon” is the least of Kerry’s sins.

It was a combined operation of over 260 Swift Boat and other Navy servicemen, Army Specials Forces commander, a couple of us civilians (I was a journalist in SVN/Cambodia) including the son of an Air Force flier in Vietnam, and some senior Operations Commanders for Overlord and Market Garden, plus a couple POWS (military and civilians).

You couldn’t find a betterr group of Americans in one room and it was an honor to work with them.

Recall the widespread question by the MSM in 2008; "When will the Kerry campaign respond to these scurrilous charges by the Swift Boat people?"

And, of course, they never did.

But a Newsweek reporter who had been 'embedded' in the Kerry campaign with the understanding he couldn't reveal anything until after the election, finally revealed the answer: "Because most of it was true..."

Quite agree. The buffoon deserves a blindfold and a cigarette.

Yes Mr Kerry you’ve had the rare opportunity to not have betrayed our nation by aiding and abetting our enemies not just once but twice now.

A cigarette would not be good for his health. Then on the other hand, neither would a bullet, but I love your kind thoughts.

He probably meant Cambodia where he was working with the CIA on covert missions ordered and directed by the President of the US requiring him to sacrifice his Christmas and New Year’s holidays for the secret secret missions.

Thanks. I wasn't aware of this: "But a Newsweek reporter who had been 'embedded' in the Kerry campaign with the understanding he couldn't reveal anything until after the election, finally revealed the answer: "Because most of it was true..."
