We are not sure exactly what one has to do, in these days of moral ablation, to disqualify oneself from running for elective office.
The Clinton years notwithstanding, there have always been parameters within which national candidates must comport themselves - certain minimum standards that even prospective politicians might reasonably meet.
This year, however is very different.
Its quite clear that the Democrat Party is busted - a sprung watch - beyond repair. The nominative process that we find ourselves within, clearly demonstrates this.
That a bizarre, snarling, hate filled candidate of the diminutive stature of Howard Dean was almost anointed - as if deemed by heavenly hosts perched upon excelsior clouds - is reason enough to be suspect of the health of the party.
Yet on Deans heels comes an even more troubling individual who surfaced in the carnage of the medias frenzy to de-elect Howie.
That individual is of course, John Forbes Kerry.
John Forbes Kerry.
Roll those words around in your mouth and what do you get?
You get a craggy - almost gaunt looking, but virile - New Englander.
You get a Skull & Crossbones Yalie, a war hero and the most liberal member of the United States Senate.
You get a guy who says he can speak for the little guy, but whose personal fortune is about $750 million and whose cash-cow wifeys company outsources 6 out of 7 of its jobs to Third World dung heaps.
One minor complication, however John Forbes Kerry is a domestic terrorist.
That's not a typo.
John Forbes Kerry is a domestic terrorist.
In large part due to New Yorks real newspaper of record - the Sun - and their award winning journalist - Thomas Lipscomb - the true story of Kerrys membership in the radical revolutionary group, Vietnam Veterans Against the War, has finally seen the light of day.
While Kerry was the national spokesman for VVAW [1970-1971] the group coldly discussed a plot to invade the capital building and then assassinate pro-war United States Senators. This was nothing less than a plan to violently overthrow the lawful government of the United States.
My plan was that on the last day we would go into the [congressional] offices we would schedule the most hardcore hawks for last and we would shoot them all...I was serious." Scott Camil, VVAW
From one of the New York Sun's series of articles:
Mr. Nicosia also read quotes from FBI surveillance documents he obtained under the Freedom of Information Act as he was preparing his 2001 book, Home to War."
My evidence is incontrovertible. He was there," Mr. Nicosia said in an interview yesterday. Theres no way that five or six agents saw his ghost there," said the historian, who lives in Marin County, north of San Francisco.
Mr. Nicosia said that the records show Mr. Kerry resigned from the group on the third day of the meeting, following discussion of the assassination plan and an argument between Mr. Kerry and another VVAW national coordinator, Al Hubbard.
Reading from an FBI informant report, Mr. Nicosia said, John Kerry at a national Vietnam Veterans Against the War meeting appeared and announced to those present that he resigned for personal reasons but said he would be able to speak for VVAW " at future events." Josh Gerstein, New York Sun - March 19, 2004
Please note that even Kerrys resignation" from the group was a self-serving act of convenience not conscience, only driven by Kerrys desire to run for political office.
It's beyond comprehension that after attending at least one meeting where an active and serious assassination plan was discussed, Kerry was still willing to be their spokesman - anything that would get him media face-time.
Kerry has lied about his VVAW experience and his anti-war" activities for over 30 years. His campaign has only now come clean because the evidence arrayed against him includes at least 6 different eye-witnesses and the testimony of FBI undercover agents who were also at those meetings.
Set against the realities of the war on terror, if holding a leadership position in the VVAW and his participation in discussions about assassinating United States Senators is not grounds for barring John Forbes Kerry from ever seeking elective office, we cant imagine what is.
Kerry has never publicly rejected the VVAW, he has never apologized for his role as the organization's official spokesman nor has he rejected its terrorist agenda.
John Forbes Kerry is so monstrously ego-driven, so reckless, so lacking in veracity, judgment and temperament, that his candidacy should be rejected outright. If it proceeds it will be the final nail in the coffin of the Democrat Party, a party that will be crushed at the polls on November 2.

I am looking at how others are going to perceive us here at Free Republic, when posts, such as this one, resort to the worse kind of name calling.
Kind of like when people at DU call President Bush a "murderer" as a result of civilian deaths in Iraq. One cannot deny that civilians have died, but labels such as that only make the name caller look foolish.
Yep, I'd say that covers Kerry quite nicely.
I'm glad to hear it was good.
