I am watching Hannity give this sKerry apologist say that stopping the war is something to be proud of.
Yet, nothing is mentioned about the true results of our defeat.
Correct me if I am wrong but didn't millions die in Nam and Cambodia because of our premature withdrawal?
His HYPOCRISY is absolutely stunning...His betrayal of his comrades in arms and harm to this nation's interests documented and the harm lived with by many vets for over 30 years. His Senate record is something he dare not run on..God save this nation from a Kerry Presidency.
Premature withdrawl is always bad.
Asshole kerry doesnt even know what he's talking about on Cambodia. A bunch of the Khmer Rouge THEMSELVES broke off from Pol Pot in 1978-79 (Heng Samrin, Pen Sovann, Hun Sen), to align with the Vietnamese commies and drive the KR out of Phnom Penh. It was simply the Soviet backed criminals and murderers (Kerry's allies) taking over from the Chinese backed criminals and murderers (Khmer Rouge).
If he's the best they have, they are on thin ice. Hannity worked him over like William Kennedy Smith on a schoolgirl passed out drunk at uncle Teddy's compound. In the words of our former president, "Better get some ice on that".
According to RJ Rummel's work;
http://www.hawaii.edu/powerkills/SOD.CHAP6.HTM
After the war, the Vietnamese communists murdered (democide) between 164K and 1.6M people, with a most likely estimate of 564K. From 1945-1987 there were between 489K and 2.78M communist democides, with the most likely estimate of 1.1M.
Democide: The murder of any person or people by a government, including genocide, politicide, and mass murder.
I saw that too. I forming the opinion that mr. colmes iso reminding me of the trash that gave me crap when I came home from viet nam. Mr. Colmes, I no longer consider you to be a liberal, but in my mind you are a communist, like the communist (jane fonda/tom hayden/john kerry/ramsey clark) et al that caused me and my fellow veterans to be trashed when we came home.
For those freepers and lurkers that are not old enough to have experienced what transpired let me elaborate. The same communists (kennedy and the rest of the democratic senate and house) way back when painted with a broad brush that we (those that went to "the Nam") were rapist and baby killers.
Kerry and his co-communists undermined the support for the war and ultimately millions died. I was accused of being a rapist/baby killer by family members long before kerry gave his communist talking points in front of the senate. I came home during the TET offensive of 1968 and was called a rapist/baby killer in Mar of 1968 by my family.
Kerry, in repeating the communist (kgb,nva,vc) talking points in front of the world during the fullbright hearings)just re-inforced their accusations.
The America I came home to in 1968 was bit the America I left in 1966. Communist kerry is now saying that what he TESTIFIED to were the words of an "angry young man". He was 27 when he lied for the communist. I was an angry young man when I came home, but I wasn't old enough to buy a drink.
Had the military released me on the day I came home, I would have renounced my citizenship and left America with never a glance back. But the military did not release me, nor did the military let me go back to my brothers. A year later they released me, and I rejoined our society.
President Ronald Regan gave ME respect as an American, and I am once again the total patriot I was in 1965 when I joined the Marines.
John kerry the traitor on returning "home" to America joined those that trashed veterans. He is now trying with the help of the media and mr. colmes to do to the Afgan,Iraq veterans what was done to those of us that served in Viet Nam.
Not all Americans treated us as trash. I was able to walk in a ticker tape parade in the city of San Diego on the return of the 26th Marines in early 1969, just before my release from active duty.
Thank you stumpy, well said, and thank you for your service.
Your welcome. Shoud have used spell check, but it was really coming from the heart. I hate the b@stardes that caused me to be so unhappy with MY country.

Millions were slaughtered by the "kind, compassionate North Vietnamese Commies." A VN friend of mine tells me of people who were kept doubled over in a barrel for years and when they were finally released, all they could do was walk around like a pretzel. This is the type of thing that John Kerry "won" for the Vietnamese with his propoganda! Some of these unfortunates were only released in about 1992, 17 years after hostilities btwn North and South ended.
China!
Haven't seen you around in a long long time. How are you:)

In the Late '60's & early '70's a LARGE Portion of the American Public was, simply, "Disconnected from" the Horrific Debate faced by the Returning 'Vets.
"America" was, Simply, NOT Engaged in the "Vietnam Debate" after the Early '70's.
Short Attention Span!
Whatever Indignities the returning "Vietnam Vets" suffered after the early '70's, were "Gratuitous!"
America had "Moved On!!"
I Tell you This to "Set the Landscape" of the Times.
Mr Kerry wishes to "Re-Create the Late '60's--Early '70's."
SO BE IT!!

Nice post, Stumpy, and thanks for your service. I left VN in Jan 70, spent 10 days in the Philippines at my PCS station then flew from 90+F to -12F in Chicago. I never got any flak from people, but I was wearing a sailor uni. The wacko's are mostly on the left and right coast, I hope!
