It was mentioned in a Free Republic post today that John Kerry had attempted to purchase ALL copies of his treasonous NEW SOLDIER book during his 1972 Senate re-election campaign.


My quick check to eBay indicates that there are copies available.

Perhaps someone could purchase it, scan it to a PDF file, and have it posted "For Educational Purposes Only" at Free Republic.


Here's the eBay link:

I can't out bid Teraazza until payday.

[Josh in PA]

Kerry is probably the leading bidder right now..

[Josh in PA]

haha, beat me to it.

[Drango]

I'm sure the NY Times which ran a full page story on the relationship between the Swift Vets and Bush campaign will purchase the book and tell us what it says...(/snicker)

OH CRAP -- let me try again.
It's stuck in "my own account".

[AmishDude]

Someone has already scanned and put in PDF.

There was a thread yesterday that had a link to the PDF files.

Damn, that was fast...
the cheapest one on amazon is now $500.
Methinks this is a hot book.

[onyx]

HEY, GOOD!!!!!!

[weegee]

From this week kerry's book New Soldier on H and C tonight!

[Muzzle_em]

I cannot believe it is $500!!!
The publisher has GOT to be licking his chops and thinking of reprinting it.

[weegee]

There used to be copies on Bookfinder.com and eBay for around $130 (the softcover edition).

Quite a few library copies (stolen?).

Odd thing is that bookfinder won't load right now (so I can't see how many copies are for sale). It searches a number of new/used book lists, not just Alibris.

[onyx]

Well, hell's bells, let's read and copy from it for free.
See two posts above. LOL!

[onyx]

I had better bookmark this thread.
The free read for later ammo is worth it. LOL

It would be very nice to see a deeply wealthy conservative in the publishing business (Richard Mellon Scaife, can you hear me?) just reprint the damn thing and give it away...force Kerry or his publisher to sue to stop the publication of words like these (from the epilogue):

We will not quickly join those who march on Veterans' Day waving small flags, calling to memory those thousands who died for the "greater glory of the United States." We will not accept the rhetoric. We will not readily join the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars-in fact, we will find it hard to join anything at all and when we do, we will demand relevancy such as other organizations have recently been unable to provide. We will not take solace from the creation of monuments or the naming of parks after a select few of the thousands of dead Americans and Vietnamese. We will not uphold traditions which decorously memorialize that which was base and grim.
