WASHINGTON -- In a question-and-answer session before a Senate committee in 1971, John F. Kerry, who was a leading antiwar activist at the time, asserted that 200,000 Vietnamese per year were being "murdered by the United States of America" and said he had gone to the Paris and "talked with both delegations at the peace talks" and met with communist representatives.

This man is more dangerous, to this country, than Bill and Hillary Clinton!!!

Kerry maintains he was a reservist for years after his discharge from active duty.

If so, then meeting with and comforting the enemy is a treasonous action.

and.... JFKerry is coming to Kansas City, March 28, 2004, wonder if his fellow protester Randy Barnes will be visited once again?

"Kerry responded that "... but I think that at this point the United States is not really in a position to consider the happiness of those people as pertains to the army in our withdrawal."
Come again!

If any one thinks hanoi john just happened to go to Paris for his honeymoon...I've ocean front property in Arizona to sell you..reasonably.

Absolutely.

The 'toons are self serving and power-hungry, and would sell out their country for the right price.

Kerry was and is a full featured traitor who would sell out his country for nothing.

[blanknoone]

But the spokesman played down the extent of Kerry's role

As well he should, given that it is actually a crime....kinda like being involved in a conspiracy to assassinate US Senators.

It is about time that the mainstream media starts covering this story. Kerry and other members of the VVAW went to Paris to meet with the Vietnamese Communists. As has been documented on FR, we even have the picture of the meeting. Kerry's and the VVAW's activities need more scrutiny by the media. Also, according to his testimony before Congress, Kerry was dead wrong about what would happen if the US pulled out. Kerry thought a few thousand South Vietnamese were in danger, he was wrong. He also has a lot explaining to do concerning his support for a Communist takeover of the South.

"Senator Kerry never suggested or believed and absolutely rejects the idea that the word applied to service of the American soldiers in Vietnam..."

Hey, it's one thing to use the word "murder" in a casual conversation. It's another to use it in front of a Senate committee. Didn't mean it, my you-know-what.

And there is no statue on limitations on treason.

How much??

Kerry, indeed, was presumably a reservist after his active duty. The oath of an officer of the U. S. Armed Forces states: "I...solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same..." This, moreover, has direct application to Kerry's not reporting the manifestly serious discussion by VVAW of assasinating members of the U. S. government. He refused to carry out his oath as an officer, and cannot not in anyway be relied on to carry out the similar oath as President.

Would-be assassin buddies, Logan Act violations, medal tossing, atrocities...

He's a rebel and he'll never be any good.

Hanoi Jane and John are both guilty of treason. Abetting and comforting the enemy is treason, regardless of the circumstances. To accuse American soldiers of murder is treasonous. To imagine war without innocent noncombatants killed is ridiculous. This is the reason war has to be considered seriously. A soldier in the service of his country is duty bound to inflict as much damage as possible against the enemy. If Kerry opposed the war on principle, he should have filed as a conscientious objector. Case closed.

I never negociated with the Viet Cong... until I actually did.
