C-SPAN to Broadcast Old Kerry Anti-war Testimony
NewsMax ^

Posted on 03/21/2004 2:26:45 PM PST by GulliverSwift

John Kerry’s controversial anti-Vietnam War testimony is taking one step closer to haunting him during his presidential bid.

C-SPAN has announced that it plans to present it Sunday night at 6:30 and 9:30 p.m. EST.

This could be political dynamite for the liberal senator and presumptive Democratic nominee for president.

This is the testimony where Kerry, a young veteran of the Vietnam War, accused his fellow soldiers of a string of atrocities.

Since the April 22, 1971, testimony has come to light, Kerry has tried every way he knows to play it down or minimize it.

Sunday night, millions of Americans will have the opportunity to see it in the candidate's own words before Sen. William Fulbright's Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

He aided in CAUSING people to spit on vets returning from Vietnam. He did not serve honorably.

He painted them all as savages & Americans believed it....

Shame on us.

And don't forget that MOST of this "testimony" was a flat out lie!

" He's really trying for a Kennedyesque oratory."

And like his mentor Teddy, he's fabricating most of what he says. Where the hell is he getting all of these statistics from?

This is really amazing, that C-SPAN is showing this. It is very damaging to Kerry, IMHO.

Kerry may have a melt-down. Pray that he doesn't and keeps the Hildebeast out of it.

Yes, testimony was 'flat out lied' but Nam Vets must speak up NOW to make sure that is known.

The thought of Kerry as C in C after all these lies makes me sick.

I don't know whether to laugh hysterically, or sob uncontrollably listening to this...listening to his condemning anti-Communism, AS HE PROBABLY STILL DOES, now with the facts of what really happened in that part of the world after we left apparent for any willing to see..

I'm disgusted beyond measure with him and his kind.

Oh, now brings in racism, the use of weapons, hypocricy, not following the UN, free fire zomnes, search and destroy, torture of prisoners.

Oh, now brings in an American Indian who used to cheer the cowboys on TV. Says Indian says that he stopped when he realized that he was doing the same to Vietnamese that the cowboys did to his people. Ugh.

It is only damaging IF others come forward to dispute Kerry & point out the lies!
