-John Kerry- some selected, informative links...--

[Robert A Cook PE]

Surprised anybody (much less the Globe) is going to print this!

[cynicom]

I had family members that would have liked to have gotten out of that stinking jungle. All Kerry has to do is release all his records.

[nwrep]

Did I understand this article to mean the book was written by REPORTERS?

[FairOpinion]

Do you think this would qualify for "breaking news", so it would stay up longer -- I think it contains some important info.

Why didn't Kerry release his service records?!

The author is evidently an Australian, who may be unfamiliar with the structure of the American military. At any rate Kerry was never in the US Army.

Release your war records Kerry!!! We want "answers to all those lingering questions" that will arise from this book.

Yeah right. He will never release those records, nor will you ever hear the media ask him to.

the well-connected Kerry - photographed with president John F.Kennedy as a young man -

Clinton, now him? Just wait, the new talking point for the dims is going to be that you had to have been 'touched' by their idol.

Excellent post!

Kerry will rue the day he made his Vietnam service his centerpiece *ping*

"Support for their case is expected to come from a book to be published next month by reporters from The Boston Globe in Kerry's home state of Massachusetts. The book, JF Kerry, the Complete Biography, will question the extent of his injuries in Vietnam and whether he was entitled to an early release from the war."

As I've mentioned several times, the Boston Globe asked Kerry for a waiver so that they could see the records of his medical treatment for his three wounds.

Kerry REFUSED.

Book reopens Kerry's war wounds

Here, put some salt on it.

and the other two did not interrupt his duties.

How does anyone rightfully call these "wounds"?

Kerry is a fraud, a pretender, but will the media allow the citizens to know it?

[Poincare]

He returned to the US a bitter opponent of the war and was released from the army early.

Not so. According to other accounts he did not turn against the war until several months after he returned--a calculated political decision.

[Dante3]

Kerry keeps on lying.

[SAMWolf]

He requested a transfer and was given a plum job as an admiral's aide in Brooklyn. He returned to the US a bitter opponent of the war and was released from the army early.

That's not a bad trick, considering he was in the Navy. Or is Kerry now claiming he was in the Army so he can write himself some Army commendations?

[pabianice]

Kerry has not authorised the release of his war records - a strange omission, say his political foes, given the ferocity with which his supporters have demanded to see every last document of Bush's military service in the Texas Air National Guard.

It takes time to scrub and rewrite your records.

"by his own account, one shrapnel wound laid him off for two days and the other two did not interrupt his duties."

"There were an awful lot of Purple Hearts -- from shrapnel, some of those might have been M-40 grenades," said Elliott, Kerry's commanding officer. "The Purple Hearts were coming down in boxes. Kerry, he had three Purple Hearts. None of them took him off duty."
