For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. It is written:
“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will acknowledge God.’”
So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God. ...Romans 14:10-12
Goood luck with that Johnny ...
Heroics??? Histrionics, maybe.
More than likely fabricated bullshiit just like so much of Kerry's stories.
Ed
Probably a mistake .... was in Cambodia when he was working with the CIA.
Not fake news. Just plain bullshit.
Kerry was in Vietnam!? Yer kiddin!
Hey, WAPO, let me properly finish that thought for you this time.
It could have been 1969 again as the odious Secretary of State John F. Kerry once again found himself working overtime, plotting the nefarious moves that would carry him through his remaining days in office. His overriding goal, then as now: to do as much damage to America and to America's ideals and interests around the world as he possibly could, in order to advance the dystopian agenda of global Socialism.
No potential betrayal or treachery has ever been so small or insignificant as to escape his notice and attention. Sowing chaos and havoc and destruction on a global scale is hard work, yet Kerry has resolutely and relentlessly continued to approach his calling with a ruthless passion and a steely-eyed determination to wield the weapons of his office up to the last possible moment.
The America-haters of this world watch on with gleeful awe, respect, and sinister admiration of his singular ability to commit blatant, premeditated treason and get away with it scot-free. His fellow-travelers can only imagine the evil, the destruction, and the chaos that he could have wrought, if only he had been elected President.
Nevertheless, he has been spectacularly successful in his quest to destroy America both from within and without, not just during these past few years of malfeasance through his actions as Secretary of State, but extending all the way back to his formative years as a lying Communist agitator. Under Kerry's watch, America's enemies have increasingly prospered as they became emboldened by the deliberate leadership vacuum established by Obama and Kerry, while America's power and prestige as the champion of what used to be called 'the free world' have been diminished in stature and effectiveness. Undoubtedly he's looking forward to reaping rich rewards for his long career of betrayals, his blatant duplicity, and for his breach of the public's trust.
I want to know why the hell we are paying for Kerry to take a nostalgic trip that has nothing to do with US diplomacy. The Rats never cease to lower the bar of public service.
Yes, Kerry’s curiously short four months in Vietnam, ending in his shipmates black-balling him back to the U.S. Such memories!
Still looking for his hat?!
“...he earned a Silver Star for his heroics when he leapt ashore after an ambush to pursue a fleeing Viet Cong...”
Kerry MAY have gotten away with writing himself up for a Bronze Star, but not for a Silver Star.
Senator Kerry’s DD Form 214 (a Defense Department form detailing a veteran’s service upon separation from the military) lists his “Silver Star with Combat ‘V’” and is posted on the Internet at JohnKerry.com. The Combat “V” device is never awarded with the nation’s third highest award for heroism.
Journalist Thomas Lipscomb, writing in the Chicago Sun-Times quoted a Navy spokesperson stating: “The Navy has never issued a ‘Combat V’ to anyone for a Silver Star.” Additionally, former Navy Secretary John Lehman was quoted with respect to the Silver Star citation as saying: “It is a total mystery to me. I never saw it. I never signed it. I never approved it. And the additional language it contains was not written by me.”
Furthermore, Senator Kerry’s records also reflect the award of a Vietnam Service Medal with 4 bronze stars. Military experts consulted byJudicial Watchbelieve Kerry’s brief tour of duty inVietnamwould have merited no more than 2 bronze stars on a Vietnam Service Medal. Many Swift Boat Veterans have questioned the circumstances of Kerry’s Purple Heart awards.
“There is something amiss in Senator Kerry’s service records. John Kerry should stop touting an award that has never been awarded to anyone in the U.S. Navy. The U.S. Navy needs to get on the ball and thoroughly scrub John Kerry’s service record by conducting a complete investigation of Kerry’s service,” stated Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “And, of course, John Kerry may answer many of these questions by authorizing the release of all his service and medical records,” Fitton added.
The only word that comes to mind is...BULLSHIT.
