Kerry is so pathetic! Do we need to start mailing him Sf180's again?

[Chena]

I'll believe it when I see it. :)

[Fenris6]

I hope Kerry wins the nom in 08.

[Young Werther]

Yeah..squeaky clean! He's got poo poo undies and there's no gettin' away from the stench!

{and yes the Young Frankenstein allusion is purposeful as are his shorts}

He won't sign it....

Not unless he can run them through Dan's fax to sanitize them. They contain something that he doesn't want the public to see. Otherwise, he would have signed the form in '04. Unless he can restrict their distribution, he won't, he can't politically afford to release them.

Remember how he nuanced around with Russert, both in April of '04 and in February of '05. He tried to imply that he had 'released all the documents he had received.' That didn't mean he had received all the documents; just that he had released those that he had received. He tried to play word games, and Russet won't take him to task.

You see, this way if he does they can dump it out there beneath the furor over Terri Schiavo and nobody will even notice.

I wouldn't hold my breath on his doing it, either.

My best analysis, furthered by sources which I cannot name, is that Kerry's file contains a less-than-honorable discharge from the 1971-72 period

I think there's a fair amount of evidence to reach that conclusion. Why on earth would he not sign the form (like President Bush did) if there was nothing negative to be released? Surely he didn't have a sudden, and isolated attack of principles.

Whoever in the US Senate that gave Hanoi Kerry
a Top Secret Clearance HAS seen all his military records.

The FBI, since 9/11, does non military clearances.

His most recent one who have been in the spring/summer of '04
when he won the dims's nomination against President Bush.

NO ONE gets a Top Secret Clearance WITHOUT agreeing to have all your records released.

OR pass a FULL FBI check when someone
runs for the highest elected
office in th ecountry.

Does the DC crowd think "We the People" are stupid?

[Darkwolf377]

I hope he signs it and NOTHING incriminating is found. Then we will all see how stupid and obstinate he is, holding back the records purely because someone was demanding he release them, and NO ONE tells JFK what to do! And also, the stage will be set for him to go up against HRC. I love seeing Demrats eat their young, I do, I do.

[Darkwolf377]

Obviously I meant "their own" and not "their young." :)

[smoothsailing]

Kerry can do a 180, but he will never sign a 180.

[ride the whirlwind]

...the Senator may request the complete release of his military records at last

His idea of complete and my idea of complete are probably strangers to eachother.

50 days and counting
January 30, 2005:
Q: TIM RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?
A: SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will.

[onyx eyes]

Look, if Kerry runs, I can laugh and joke now. But, in '04, the thought of seeing that face in my living room as my president, for four wretched years, was too much, .....

[editor-surveyor]

" a release of squeaky-clean records will cause Democrats to wonder why Kerry blocked their release throughout his entire campaign and caused such controversy over their contents"

Squeaky clean records???? What are these people smoking? Do they really believe that the Swift Vets are lying? do they think Jimmy Carter won the '80 election too?
