John Kerry is a traitor who met with the enemy in a time of war. He also came back to the US to bear false testimony to Congress, participated in a seditious anti-war group which encouraged junior personnel to frag their officers, and a was present during the infamous VVAW Kansas City meeting.

He should be in jail, not in the Senate.

Zero deserves about as much credit for finding Osama as I do for the first lunar landing.

Really Mr. Kerry? In the words of your President: “He didn’t build that”.

Maybe he should have said; “ask Barak Obama if he’s better off now than he was four years ago!” .............................Put in the background music... “and the money came in from every side.” from the show Evita.

JOHN KERRY: HUNTER, DREAMER, REALIST
By Laura Blumenfeld

-—SNIP-—

And who is he, really?

A close associate hints: There's a secret compartment in Kerry's briefcase. He carries the black attaché everywhere. Asked about it on several occasions, Kerry brushed it aside. Finally, trapped in an interview, he exhaled and clicked open his case.

“Who told you?” he demanded as he reached inside. “My friends don't know about this.”

The hat was a little mildewy. The green camouflage was fading, the seams fraying.

“My good luck hat,” Kerry said, happy to see it. “Given to me by a CIA guy as we went in for a special mission in Cambodia.”

Kerry put on the hat, pulling the brim over his forehead. His blue button-down shirt and tie clashed with the camouflage. He pointed his finger and raised his thumb, creating an imaginary gun. He looked silly, yet suddenly his campaign message was clear: Citizen-soldier. Linking patriotism to public service. It wasn't complex after all; it was Kerry.

He smiled and aimed his finger: “Pow.”

From Feb. 17, 2004 VILLAGE VOICE:

WHEN JOHN KERRY'S COURAGE WENT M.I.A.
. . .Senator covered up evidence of P.O.W.’s left behind

By Sydney H. Schanberg (’The Killing Fields’ author)

Senator John Kerry, a decorated battle veteran, was courageous as a navy lieutenant in the Vietnam War. But he was not so courageous more than two decades later, when he covered up voluminous evidence that a significant number of live American prisoners—perhaps hundreds—were never acknowledged or returned after the war-ending treaty was signed in January 1973.

The Massachusetts senator, now seeking the presidency, carried out this subterfuge a little over a decade ago— shredding documents, suppressing testimony, and sanitizing the committee's final report—when he was chairman of the Senate Select Committee on P.O.W./ M.I.A. Affairs.

Over the years, an abundance of evidence had come to light that the North Vietnamese, while returning 591 U.S. prisoners of war after the treaty signing, had held back many others as future bargaining chips for the $4 billion or more in war reparations that the Nixon administration had pledged. Hanoi didn't trust Washington to fulfill its promise without pressure. Similarly, Washington didn't trust Hanoi to return all the prisoners and carry out all the treaty provisions. The mistrust on both sides was merited. Hanoi held back prisoners and the U.S. provided no reconstruction funds.

Greetings Henchster:

Perhaps Olivier Knox read about John F'n Kerry sitting down with North Vietnamese in Paris to help negotiate against the US for determining Kerry's foreign policy expertise?

Then again, maybe not; because Knox doesn't state "the * self * decorated veteran."

If I was Ensign Kerry's Chief, he might be President today.

Cheers,
OLA
