There is overwhelming evidence that the Navy gave John Kerry either a dishonorable discharge or an undesirable discharge – which is the equivalent of a dishonorable discharge without the felony conviction – and that, as a result of such discharge, he was stripped of all of his famous but questionable Navy awards and medals. And the kicker? The evidence is on his website!
Kerry’s oh-so-clever handlers evidently depended on the ignorance of the public and the press about military records when they posted his 1978 “Honorable Discharge from the Reserves” on his site as part of a carefully selected partial release of his Navy records (the Navy says it is still withholding about 100 records). However, one diligent researcher, Thomas Lipscomb, saw through the scam and exposed it in a New York Sun story on Oct. 13. Predictably, the major media has shunned the story.
What Mr. Lipscomb noticed (and I overlooked when I first read the document) was the date of the posted discharge, Feb. 16, 1978. This was six years after Kerry’s six-year (1966-1972) commitment to the Navy ended. The anti-war detractor of our military did not re-up for another six-year term in 1972, so why the delay of his discharge? The only logical conclusion is that the 1978 honorable discharge was a second discharge given to replace an earlier undesirable discharge under less-than-honorable conditions, as unfit for military service.

What in the world does that response mean?
I used to receive WND in print. At some point I didn’t feel it was worth paying for paper after many of his articles went Bizarro World.
The article, like so many others, strayed FO reality.
Kerry is an A-hole and a synthetic bully, that’s for sure.
But, he really did receive an honorable discharge and threw his phony ribbons in a pond during one of his sheep dip antics.
No offense to you.
“I know it is not “news.” I brought this back as a reminder before his confirmation hearings.”
Lets just pray there is ONE individual in those hearings that demands that he finally produce his original DD214 prior to any confirmation vote. Show us Johnny! We’re still waiting...
