You Want Vietnam, Senator? Bring It On!

I think just the fact Kerry threw other soldiers' medals away and kept his own for future benefit will convince a lot of people that he's a creep.

That is definitely Kerry's "smoked it but didn't inhale" moment. Albeit far more serious.

Kerry's macho envy of Bush is getting old....

First he copied Bush's aircraft carrier landing by riding his hog up onto Jay's stage. Now he's stolen Bush's line "Bring it on." It's downright embarrassing, I'll tell ya. He's reminding me a lot of testosterone-challenged Gore.



Finally! I am laughing! Thankyou so much hotpotato for this! You summed it up, and I can sit back and laugh, instead of slumping over and stressing out. Thank you again!

You summed it up!

I proudly JOINED the Army in 1973.

At the time, I was attending the University of California, Berkley. Contrary to what people would like you to think, the hippie freaks were rare and I only knew two of them.

I grew up in a family that understood Vietnam and why we were there.

Twenty some years later, I retired in 1994.

I agree, bring it on!

[The Bat Lady]

We've got all those people spitting on the soldiers when they came back.

Not to mention the DNC convention where they asked the boy scouts of America to be he flag bearers and they spit on them!!!!!!

Truely appauling!

The Democrats are the ones opening this up this time around...the 'rats think they are immune from criticism on this because Kerry served in Vietnam and can be portrayed as a "war hero" - interestingly while speaking in Washington yesterday Kerry made some crack about "Benedict Arnold corporate CEO's who sell out the taxpayers" - Benedict Arnold of course was a "war hero " also - he served with such distinction in the continental army that he was appointed to the rank of major general, and was severely wounded in battle at least three times. But eventually he had to flee the country and is known today as a traitor for his attempt to turn the fort at West Point over to the British. Just as "war hero" Kerry may be thought by some (such as me) to be a traitor for the way in which he returned to this country and sold out his former comrades by proclaiming that the cause in which they were still engaged was a "mistake" and "criminal" - the 'rats supposed immunity on this may fade fast......

Thank you for your service.

I shudder to think what our sons and daughters around the world must think to hear that President Bush lied.

JFKerry voted to send them into harms way and then voted against appropriations to take care of them. All this in a political calculation in winning an election. What a "hero".

This was last year and JFKerry won't speak to that harm.

I agree, and so do I. It's what he did after he got back home that bothers me. It undid everything that he had achieved in the combat he was in as a SEAL in riverine warfare and undermined and ultimately made valueless not only his valor but that of tens of thousands of other Americans, some Aussies, Koreans and many more thousands of South Vietnamese. When are those who participating in robbing of us victory as dupes for our enemies going to be held accountable? It's now or never;it's get the truth out or suffer the left's falsified picture to endure as the teaching on our campuses.

Hillary Apologized for Convention Spitters
NewsMax.com
Published: 6/02/00 Author: Carl Limbacher and NewsMax.com Staff

First Lady Hillary Clinton has apologized to two Albany officials for delegates who spit on an Albany police honor guard at the May 16th convention that nominated her for U.S. Senate, NewsMax.com has learned.

The first lady's previously unreported apologies were revealed by Albany Mayor Gerald Jennings in a Thursday interview.

On Saturday The New York Times quoted Clinton spokesperson Karen Dunn, who said that Mrs. Clinton called Mayor Jennings on May 19th to say she was "appalled by what was reported" about the spitting attacks. But the Times made no mention of any Clinton apology and quoted one official who said that "no apologies are necessary."

Mayor Jennings told NewsMax.com, however, that Mrs. Clinton did indeed apologize for the ugly incident during her phone call.

"She called me at home," said Jennings. "She was appalled. She expressed serious concern and she did apologize, yes."

The mayor said he told Mrs. Clinton, "Well, our police are certainly criticized when they do something wrong. They handled this situation as seasoned professionals and did not react and continued on with their mission. People should recognize that as well."

Mrs. Clinton's call to Jennings came one day after Republican National Committee Chairman Jim Nicholson demanded that Mrs. Clinton issue the apology.

"At an event that was for all intents and purposes Hillary Clinton's nomination party, she owes the Albany Police and police officers around the state an immediate apology," Nicholson said in an RNC press release.

The mayor revealed that Mrs. Clinton also wrote a letter of apology to Albany Police Chief John Neilsen. NewsMax.com has a request for a copy of the letter pending with Neilsen's office.

Chief Neilsen told the Times on Saturday that "no apologies are necessary" from the state Democratic leadership, though by that time he had received a letter of apology from state Democratic Chairwoman Judith Hope.

Mayor Jennings said he gave directions to Chief Neilsen to try to identify who was involved in the spitting attack. But that would be "very difficult to do," he added.

In her letter to Chief Neilsen, a copy of which was obtained by NewsMax.com on Tuesday, Hope wrote, "we will make every effort to identify those involved in the incident."

Asked whether Mrs. Clinton made a similar pledge to investigate, Mayor Jennings said, "I told Hillary that I didn't think it was appropriate for her to undertake any investigation. I mean, that's up to us."

"We'll deal with this locally," the mayor added. "It shouldn't be a national issue or a statewide issue."

Albany's City Hall is a traditional bastion of Democratic politics, noted the Times in its Saturday report.

Why the secrecy about Mrs. Clinton's now two week old apologies? Perhaps her campaign didn't want to attract attention to the original delegate-spitting reports, a story which most of the press has ignored.

The first lady's Manhattan campaign headquarters has failed to return repeated calls about the convention spitting episode.

Kerry voted to send them into harms way and then voted against appropriations to take care of them.

That alone, has proved that Kerry is not qualified for the job of representing and protecting the American people.

Kerry has allow his quest for power to become more important than the protection of the lives of the American public.

Actually, there is a word for that: TREASON!

4 months Kerry spent in VietNam.

Do you have a link to a source?

[Kozak]

I actually respect Senator Kerry's military service

I don't. He TOTALLY NEGATED it with his subsequent behavior. Look up his record in Vietnam Vetrans against the War. Look up "Winter Soldier". Read his commments to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in 1971. Any good he did the US while in service, he more then canceled out with his subsequent disgusting behavior.

[hotpotato]

Thank you :-)

[hotpotato]

You're welcome. Glad to help bring some humor to Kerry's uhhmmm..... shortcomings :-)

[Fledermaus]

That's not correct...Kerry did two tours of duty.

I don't like the guy, but that's not good information you have.
