A new four-legged angle — actually a dog named "VC" — has suddenly materialized surrounding Sen. John Kerry's swift boat service in Vietnam.
In a 2004 presidential candidate questionnaire for Humane USA, Mr. Kerry was asked whether any pets have had an impact on his life.
"I have always had pets in my life, and there are a few that I remember very fondly," Mr. Kerry replied. "When I was serving on a Swift Boat in Vietnam, my crewmates and I had a dog we called VC.
"One day as our Swift Boat was heading up a river, a mine exploded hard under our boat," he continued. "After picking ourselves up, we discovered VC was MIA (missing in action). Several minutes of frantic search followed, after which we thought we'd lost him. We were relieved when another boat called asking if we were missing a dog."
Said Mr. Kerry: "It turns out VC was catapulted from the deck of our boat and landed, confused but unhurt, on the deck of another boat in our patrol."

His boat never hit a mine, dog never got catapaulted. Another Lie.

Thanks for the fill-in.

I thought the people on the swift boats never saw anybody on other swift boats. How could the dog land on another boat since there were never any other boats near Kerry's boat?

(I'm being facetious)

""When I was serving on a Swift Boat in Vietnam, my crewmates and I had a dog we called VC."

This should be easy to verify, the other crewmembers should be able to easily recall this dog.... oops, I forgot, they are not allowed to talk to anyone are they ?

This should be easy to verify, he should be in some of the hours of home movies Kerry shot... oos I forgot, we are not allowed to see them, are we ?

This should be easy to verify,, he should be mentioned many times in Kerry's journal... oops I forgot, we are not allowed to see them, are we ?

Has Kerry heard about the Black Churches burning when Clinton was a child? What is with these constant lies by the Liberal Democrats? These are some very unstable people!!!

What a stupid story! This guy is totally nuts! Where is this documented? If he is this far around the bend, even the Old Stream Media must realize how nuts he is.

Every town has a bar where some guy sits getting stinko every night telling stories like this. Most of them never went to Viet Nam. More than a few were never even in the service. If they only new of the opportunities in Mass. politics.
