Bbbut! He was for the Vietnam War before he was against it. It's a nuanced thing.

They are all members of the communist party engaged in an active attempt to overthrow the people and the government of the United States of America.

Why is nobody talking about the shooting of one of the targeted Senators,John Stennis? Is it because he was shot in a so-called holdup? This was more than a holdup,the perps waited for him at his house.

Good for the WSJ. Now a real challenge - how to get the alphabet soup ABCCBSNBSCNN to start covering the story and hounding Kerry for an explanation.

Mr. Kerry told a Boston radio station the whole story was "such ancient history." It was time to move on.

And yet Ketchup Boy keeps bringing up his Vietnam War record which is even MORE ancient.

I'll bet fifty cents that John Kerry's "shoulder operation" is timed to coincide with this article.

This is one of the most carefully crafted articles I've ever read. There's nothing new in it, but it has a polish to it that indicates it has been written and rewritten many times. Probably subjected to numerous rounds of fact checking.

It can be no secret that this was coming out, and the timing coincides with the C-Span broadcast of Kerry's 1971 debate on the Dick Cavet Show.

People sneer at Newsmax and the New York Sun, but now the story has been released by the newspaper of record. (the real newspaper of record)

FBI files he obtained under the Freedom of Information Act

FOI requesters get photo copies not originals.

How long does a request of this nature take? Why doesn't the reporter just file another request........or better yet, why doesn't a freeper or John Fund file a request?

Instead, Jack Kelly, a respected military columnist for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, believes many journalists are "more interested in defeating President Bush than in providing readers with potentially important information which reflects poorly on Sen. John Kerry."

This isn't the Jack Kelley with two "e"s that USA Today fired for Jayson-Blair-style fiction in news stories. Anyway, as any Freeper knows, Jack Kelly's got this nailed. Blind eyes are to the telescope in news rooms all over the country regarding Kerry's radical past (which extends well into his Senate career).

Saved to the Kerry file. I think Freeper files could rival the FBI!

4. Kerry has subsequently lied about his presence there on numerous occasions, and is now lying about not remembering being present at that meeting. And...

... Kerry did not resign from the VVAW when he claims, although he may have resigned his "national coordinator" post. He continued to bill himself as a VVAW spokesman as late as January, 1973.
