Screw Nixon AND Kerry!
BOTH sold their countries down the drain.
Nixon turned his back on the silent majority.
Kerry just sold out his uniform.
SCREW THEM BOTH!

Hey, I went to http://www.boston.com/globe/kerry and got a notice they could not find this page.

Though I agree with this writing, I thought it was highly, highly unlikely to be found in the Boston Globe. They are John eFing Kerry backers to the max.

JeFingK is in true Kennedy fashion a lowlife bum. At least Dean is an honest inmate believing the crap he peddels.

When Kerry led the Senate POW/MIA investigations some MIA families accused Kerry of a cover-up. Dolores Apodaca-Alfond, president of the National Alliance of Families and sister of an Air Force major shot down in Vietnam in 1967, said "Kerry had only one goal, and that was to normalize relations with Vietnam." Apodaca-Alfond said. "My objection was that we had given away the store to Vietnam before we received anything really in hand."

Apodaca-Alfond and others still blame Kerry, and McCain in particular, for not completing the accounting of the Vietnam missing.

"Kerry had only one goal, and that was to normalize relations with Vietnam."

It does not take much googling to confirm his interest in normalized relations with Vietnam

Also see "Betrayed," by Joseph Douglass. google returned a lttle about the book and more about Kerry and POW/MIAs. Here is one short item.

Post that article here. It's worthy of its own thread.

Please ping if there is a thread

" Kerry doesn't get his nails dirty, does he?"

In June,Senator Renoir gave an interview to Laura Blumenfeld,on MSNBC. The title of the piece was " Kerry,the Realist,Seeking to Dream." In it,Kerry fretted about breaking a fingernail. He keeps his fingernails longer than usual for a man,as he play the guitar.Here are some quotes from the article,which I bet Kerry regrets ever giving:

Kerry is referred to in the article as Primal John,the Alpha Male and "John Kerry,he's no weenie".
" Occasionally, he’ll even write poems, like the one he reluctantly read to a reporter: “I had a talk with a deer today/...( the rest of the poem is equally silly)
" Kerry likes to quote the French writer Andre Gide: “Don’t try to understand me too quickly.”
" It wasn’t enough that John’s pet parakeet could say, “Hello.” He taught it to squawk in Italian and French"
" And the guitar lessons! “It’s very hard,” he said, mid-strum. “I broke one of my nails.”
The article is full of classics like this,hopefully it will be reposted.

John Kerry's Newt Gingrich Problem?

After Newt Gingrich hit the national spotlight in 1994 by becoming the first Republican speaker of the House in 40 years, he was skewered by reports that he had served his first wife divorce papers as she lay in a hospital bed battling cancer.

But the press has been far kinder to Democratic presidential front-runner John Kerry, who, according to published accounts going back more than a decade, began extricating himself from his first marriage to Philadelphia heiress Julia Thorne at the same time she was battling a case of depression so debilitating that it drove her to the brink of suicide.

In an attempt to explain why he decided not to let his wife's precarious mental state derail his 1982 bid to become Michael Dukakis' lieutenant governor, Kerry told the New Yorker magazine last December, "When I get focused and set out to do something, I'm pretty good at staying focused."

"You don't want to let yourself down, you know what I'm saying?" added the ambitious Democrat without a hint of irony.

Thorne, whose family is reportedly worth $300 million, married Kerry in 1970. According the New Yorker's Joe Klein, the couple's friends said Julia was not a typical political wife.

"There were times at dinner parties when John would be very pompous, unable to control his impulse to make a speech," one acquaintance told the writer. "It was all slightly laughable, and Julia was one of those who laughed. She'd say things like, 'What the f--k did you just say?'"

Kerry's career focus was so intense that Thorne apparently felt she was an impediment to her husband's ambitions. In her 1994 book about that period in her life, titled "You Are Not Alone," she wrote:

"I could no longer pretend I was of use to my husband or my children. ... I knew that, once I was gone, my family and friends would be relieved of the burden of my incompetency."

By Thorne's own account, she began to contemplate suicide a full two years before Kerry ratcheted up his 1982 campaign. Reviewing her book shortly after it was published, the Boston Globe reported: "One night in 1980, Julia Thorne put her children to bed and then sat on the edge of her own bed to contemplate suicide. She was exhausted - overwhelmed by despair, self-loathing and pain. She wanted to lie down. Curl up. Sleep forever."

The Kerrys were separated in 1982 but didn't divorce until 1988.

Press summaries of the New Yorker report focused on other details of Kerry's life story, such as his Vietnam heroism. Most omitted any mention of Kerry's first wife altogether, a fact that likely pleased the Massachusetts Democrat. "Kerry is understandably loath to talk about the details of the marriage," noted Klein.

In response to the New Yorker report, Sen. Kerry wrote what was described as "an anguished letter" of protest to the magazine. Thorne's two daughters by Kerry also registered their displeasure. Their mother, who has since conquered her depression and is happily remarried and living in Montana, told the Globe, "I support John's [presidential] candidacy, and I believe in John's candidacy. I think he is an immensely talented statesman, and I am 100 percent behind him."

But previous reports indicate that Thorne had problems with Kerry even after they split 21 years ago.

During the period the Kerrys were separated, for instance, the senator apparently felt little constrained by his marital vows. Gossip columns at the time linked him to Morgan Fairchild, Cornelia Guest and even President Reagan's liberal daughter, Patti Davis. An upcoming Boston Globe expose will reportedly feature details of the Massachusetts Democrat's 1980s affair with a 25-year-old British reporter.

According to a previous account offered by the paper, the fact that Kerry was still technically married till 1988 "reportedly came as a surprise to some of his frequent companions."

Just weeks before his May 26, 1995, remarriage to Ketchup heiress Theresa Heinz, Thorne took Kerry to court in a bid for an increase in child support payments, arguing that "his income was up substantially," according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

Both Kerry and Thorne denied that the lawsuit had anything to do with Heinz or her fortune.

But friction arose again two years later when Kerry, a Catholic, applied to the Washington, D.C., archdiocese to have his marriage to Thorne annulled, even though the couple had two grown daughters.

Thorne "has written a letter of opposition to the archdiocese because she feels the process demeans their relationship and their children," reported the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in 1997.

The paper blamed Kerry's new wife on the annulment bid. His office issued a terse statement: "Sen. Kerry very much understands Julia's feelings and appreciates her support. Sen. Kerry believes that this is a private family matter."

The Washington Times noted in a Kerry profile several years ago that his critics consider him "a ruthless political opportunist." Given some of the more obscure details of Kerry's first marriage, that assessment may not be too far off the mark.

Good catch. This and the MSNBC article,should shed some interesting light on Senator Renoir.We must make sure that talk show hosts get these transcripts.

[snippy_about_it]

Thanks Phil. This information should get out more.

Kerry is a dog ...

[buccaneer81]

In addition to marrying well for the second time, what else has he done?

Well, he banged Morgan Fairchild. I sat behind them at a Boston Bruins game in 1988. Got her autograph. He seemed pissed when I didn't ask for his.
