Medford, Oregon - It's obvious that John Kerry loathes the United States Military. Kerry's obsessive attacks on the US Military's handling of Saddam Hussein's massive stockpiles of explosives and ammunition borders on treason in this writer's opinion. This is just one more act of animus by a candidate who should never be allowed to command the military forces of the United States of America.
Today the truth is known about Kerry's lies concerning 380-tons of explosives near Baghdad.
Today, Friday, October 29, 2004, US Army Major Austin Pearson appeared before a press conference in the Pentagon. He provided personal, first-hand knowledge about the professional and efficient removal and disposal of Saddam's explosives stockpiles at Al Qaqaa by US Army personnel during the Iraq War.

Nine US Army trucks were used to haul an average of 33-tons of explosives and ammunition from the Al Qaqaa storage facility. That's a total of approximately 297-tons of materials that were then taken to the US Military ammunition handling facility called Dogwood, near Baghdad. This facility was used to dismantle and/or destroy massive volumes of Saddam's ammunition horde.
In total, the US Military has destroyed over 400,000 tons of Saddam's ammunition, explosives and other ordinance since the war began. The 380-tons on which Kerry has based his assault on the US Military's handling of the war in Iraq is less than one tenth of one percent of the total.
John Kerry is a liar. John Kerry obviously detests the very US Military professionals who he wants to control as Command In Chief. No one of his ilk should ever be given such massive responsibility.
If the American people are stupid enough to elect John Kerry as the next President of the United States of America...they should be prepared for the worst imaginable outcome during his term in office.
I think it is likely that appalling numbers of US Military personnel, the very people who have pledged their lives to protect America and its citizens from enemies of all kinds, will leave the US military services if Kerry is elected. Why would any of them want to serve under the kind of Commander In Chief who would stab them in their backs in an effort to become their leader?
It's shades of 1971 again...John Kerry attacking the US Military.
In 1971, Kerry made a big anti-war stink in Washington DC Senate hearings and in his contacts with North Vietnamese communists in Paris. However, he was relegated to the role of an outsider...a stone thrower.
Now, in 2004, John Kerry wants to become the most powerful elected official in the world, wielding the kind of massive military power that he would never have acquired in 1971.
This should not be allowed to happen. The American people must be wiser that.

Tell us something we dont know

He's obviously not going to come out and claim he's still the anti war idiot from Viet Nan but he doesn't hesitate to critisize every move our brave military makes. His rabid hate of everything military is clear. He is a despicable excuse for a man. He lies even when the truth would sound better. Totally a pathological liar.
John Kerry is a cowardly faced liar.

Fantastic cartoon!
were the NY Times or CNN,ABC,CBS covering the Normandy landing of WW2,they would have had been interviewing Frenchmen complaining about the damage to the beaches
and crops due to American boots and vehicles.were Kerry in the senate then, he would have decried the over-use of
fossil fuels to fuel our tanks.
