IDEOLOGICAL? Yes now we are getting somewhere.
That does explain him pretending to toss his medals. Hooking us with the likes of Jane Fonda. You bet I question what JFKerry claims and his dark accusations and dark voting record in that "HOLY" Senate.
JFKerry has displayed he is not honest, nothing more than a user and want-a-be leader. He votes for a "war" and then refuses to vote to fund that "war" cause it politically expedient for himself. This happen all within this past year.
Making himself appear to be the best friend to Veterans is a fraud based upon his voting record.
By the way he did demand a closer look in himself with "BRING IT ON".
By all means take him up on his challenge to "bring it on." But in your case, as with most who author similar sentiments, the verdict is already decided before the analysis that should be part of 'bringing it on has even begun. It is indeed ideological and those, like you, who find his ideology anathema merely route-step through the exercise and announce their hostile findings irrespective of what the documented facts demonstrate.
Lewis Carroll is a rich source of quick witted wisdom. He offered some insight that is applicable to the type of inquiry you and your similar thinking posters anticipate:" first the verdict, then the trial."
I expect the inquiry to show that the awarding of his medals and citations are within the criteria of Navy regulations, documented by eye witnesses, written up for recommendations by superior officers and approved by the legitimate chain of command. I also expect those facts to mean absolutely nothing to you and others who will continue to condemn with innuendo and dark, sinister suggestions loaded with suggestions of a cabal of lies and conspiracies in 1971 that foresaw Sen. Kerry as a presidental candidate in 2004 and planted the lies to assist his campaign.
Talk about bizarre conduct that defies logic and common sense.....!!!
