Bump.

"politely noting he had been proud to serve in the national organization."

And why is he saying NOW that he was proud to serve in an organization that wanted to assassinate people?

[steplock]

Typical of american left-wing radicals - start to get serious about convictions and they turn tail, run, and cower in a hole.

This shows that kerry was in this group strictly for "political purposes".

Does he have ANY convictions? Other than money, that is?

[pabianice]

I believe not reporting the planning of an assassination is a felony, John.

[Fresh Wind]

I smell a preemptive action. Another one of Al-Qerry's closet skeletons is beginning to rattle its bones, perhaps?

[paguch]

Is this another situation where John Kerry knew of criminal intent and did nothing? He knew of war crimes and did not report them while in Viet Nam. He knew of an assasination plot.
If he did not report this to authorities, he agreed with the outcome, he just did not want to be involved with the implimentation.

This brings back the question. Did John Kerry commit war crimes as he testified?

[sport]

kerry probably initiated the plot.

[eeriegeno]

Mr. Kerry denies being present at the November 12-15, 1971, meeting in Kansas City of Vietnam Veterans Against the War, and says he quit the group before the meeting. But according to the current head of Missouri Veterans for Kerry, Randy Barnes, Mr. Kerry,who was then 27,was at the meeting, voted against the plot, and then orally resigned from the organization.

If this is true, orally resigning does not absolve Mr Kerry of being involved in a conspiracy to assassinate someone. And this guy has the audacity to call others 'crooks and liars.'

[Kakaze]

" Senators like John Stennis, Strom Thurmond, and John Tower were his targets, according to Mr. Camil. They were to be killed during the Senate Christmas recess the following month. "

He not only knew of a plot to assassinate senators, but then went on to become a senator and stand arm & arm with at least Thurmond ( not sure about Tower & Stennis ). Can you imagine knowing of a assassination plot against a colleague and then serving with him as an equal.

How anyone could want a man so devoid of character bewilders me.

It used to surprise me but that was before clinton.

[HamiltonJay]

And I thought only right wing nutball Militia groups plotted military and assassinations of government officials!

Left = violence ... PERIOD.

[Coop]

[Saundra Duffy]

That Kerry was even associated with such a group is an absolute OUTRAGE!!!

[atomicpossum]

If this pans out in front of the American public, suddenly Kerry's noble mission against war looks a helluva lot less noble, doesn't it?

Thanks for posting this. FReeper Hon has been all over this story and I have been sending it to media sources. If this can be proven, then the RATS have a new nominee --- Hillary Clinton. We have to encourage the sources to get on talk radio. The reporter who can prove this may well win a Pulitzer. Of course, it may be posthumous.

We have to push this. Here is the beauty of this story. Even if it cannot be proven that he was there, the public is going to get an earful of how the man who wants to be commander in chief had led a group that was so radical it wanted to assassinate U.S. Senators. This could be the ticking time bomb that will destroy him.

==============================================

How can he be reached???

Thomas Lipscomb is a contributor to the SUN. He does not have a desk there. I left a message with the editor and hope I'll get a call back. If Lipscomb needs our help, he's got it.

Lack of real leadership in Vietnam...then ....under the mediation of the leftist propanda machine...and the right's abuse of youthfull patriotism....leading to great Bitterness, coupled with drugs, and violent companionship.

The left called us baby killers...and the right called us losers....

When good boys go bad....or isolate themselves in peacefull rural properties...

I chose the latter...I was fortunate and blessed by the grace of God

[cyncooper]

In a phone interview with the Sun this week, Mr. Camil did not dispute either the account in the Nicosia book or in the oral history. He said he plans to accept an offer by the Florida Kerry organization to become active in Mr. Kerry’s presidential campaign. Campaign aides to Mr. Kerry invited Mr.Camil to a meeting for the senator in Orlando last week, but they did not meet directly.

Note that "Scott the assassin" didn't just take it into his head to support Kerry. He was *invited*.
