Outstanding!!!
Now all we need is someone with the balls to publicly and formally bring charges against the Kerry/Kennedy crowd.
At least FORCE them to defend their treasonous statements.

Dead on....
I intend to email to our local "Hot Talk" KSFO (560 AM) radio hosts...

I agree. Saved, bumped, passed around, and treasured.

This is the very best article I have seen on the subject.
Do I agree? You bet I do, I just wish I didn't feel so helpless to stop it.

"If you agree, pass this along."

Thank you for this magnificent composition.

I do agree, and I'm passing it along to everyone in my address book,to newspapers and radio stations in my state, and printing copies to distribute. We must dare call it treason, and demand that the people who represent us in places of power stand against it. The so-called "silent majority" stood by during the Vietnam era and allowed the voices of the Left to become dominant. Most of us who lived through that period said, "Never Again!" Now is the time to prove it. What good will it do for our military to win the battle over there, if we lose the one at home? We owe it to them and to ourselves to fight as hard here as they are over there.

God bless you, and thank you for your service.

General Vo Nguyen Giap
Wars Fought:
-World War II
-First Indochina War(French-Indochina War 1946-1954)
-Second Indochina War(Vietnam War 1965-1972)
-Third Indochina War 1979-81
Vietnam War:
Gen. Giap planned and directed the military operations against the French that culminated in their defeat at the Battle of Dien Bien Phu in 1954. During the 1960's Giap controlled guerrilla operations against South Vietnam and the United States and planned the Tet Offensive of 1968.
In his book, Giap clearly indicated that NVA troops were without sufficient supplies, and had been continually defeated time and again.

By 1968, NVA morale was at it's lowest point ever. The plans for "Tet" '68 was their last desperate attempt to achieve a success, in an effort to boost the NVA morale. When it was over, General Giap and the NVA viewed the Tet '68 offensive as a failure, they were on their knees and had prepared to negotiate a surrender.

At that time, there were fewer than 10,000 U.S. casualties, the Vietnam War was about to end, as the NVA was prepared to accept their defeat. Then, they heard Walter Cronkite (former CBS News anchor and correspondent) on TV proclaiming the success of the Tet '68 offensive by the communist NVA. They were completely and totally amazed at hearing that the US Embassy had been overrun. In reality, The NVA had not gained access to the Embassy--there were some VC who had been killed on the grassy lawn, but they hadn't gained access. Further reports indicated the riots and protesting on the streets of America.

According to Giap, these distorted reports were inspirational to the NVA. They changed their plans from a negotiated surrender and decided instead, they only needed to persevere for one more hour, day, week, month, eventually the protesters in American would help them to achieve a victory they knew they could not win on the battlefield. Remember, this decision was made at a time when the U.S. casualties were fewer than 10,000, at the end of 1967, beginning of 1968.

If there is any consistency in Kerry's political career, it is his in-your-face use of that four-month stint in Vietnam. He enlisted like many other young men of privilege, trying to serve without going to the front lines. When in 1966 it looked like his draft number was coming up during his senior year at Yale University, and already having spoken out in public against the war, Kerry signed up with the Navy under the conscious inspiration of his hero, the late President John F. Kennedy. As a lieutenant junior grade, Kerry skippered a CTF-115 swift boat, a light, aluminum patrol vessel that bore a passing resemblance to PT-109. He thought he'd arranged to avoid combat. "I didn't really want to get involved in the war," he later would tell the Boston Globe. "When I signed up for the swift boats, they had very little to do with the war. They were engaged in coastal patrolling, and that's what I thought I was going to do."

Every sailor who served under Lieutenant John Kerry on Swift boats PCF-44 and PCF-94 have gushed about his poise under enemy fire. They tell stories of his rescuing a Green Beret from drowning, killing a Viet Cong sniper, and saving 42 Vietnamese civilians from starvation. To paraphrase Ernest Hemingway they claim that in combat Kerry exemplified “grace under pressure.” But PCF-44 Gunner’s Mate Stephen M. Gardner—in a long telephone interview from his home in Clover, South Carolina—has a starkly different memory. “Kerry was chickenshit,” he insists. “Whenever a firefight started he always pulled up stakes and got the hell out of Dodge.”

With respect to Saddam Hussein and the threat he presents, we must ask ourselves a simple question: Why? Why is Saddam Hussein pursuing weapons that most nations have agreed to limit or give up? Why is Saddam Hussein guilty of breaking his own cease-fire agreement with the international community? Why is Saddam Hussein attempting to develop nuclear weapons when most nations don't even try and responsible nations that have them attempt to limit their potential for disaster? Why does Saddam Hussein threaten and provoke? Why does he develop missiles that exceed allowable limits? Why did Saddam Hussein lie and deceive the inspection team previously? Why did Saddam Hussein not account for all the weapons of mass destruction which UNSCOM (U.N. Special Commission) identified? Why is he seeking to develop unmanned airborne vehicles for delivery of biological agents? Does he do all those things and more because he wants to live by international standards of behavior? Because he respects international law? Because he is a nice guy the world should trust?

Kerry cast a long dark shadow over all Vietnam Veterans with his outright perjury before the Senate concerning atrocities in Vietnam. His stories to the Senate committee were absolute lies..fabrications..perjury..fantasies, with NO substance. That dark shadow has defamed the entire Vietnam War veteran population, and gave "Aid and Comfort" to our enemies..the Vietnamese Communists.

GAD! So sorry I missed this first time around. Have been doing the same kind of research (read Marshall, anyone?), and this makes my point far better than I'd have done. Absolutely superb. Thank you.

"It was an important step towards ending the administration's aimless, open-ended course in Iraq and having Iraqis stand up for Iraq."

— John Kerry, shortly after his senatorial colleagues overwhelmingly voted down the Kerry-Feingold proposal to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq by July 2007.

"The detainees at Guantanamo are not innocent unfortunates swept up in an indiscriminate dragnet. These people were captured on the field of battle where they intended to kill Americans and Britons." — Cal Thomas.

21 June 2006 | PatriotPost.US | Patriot No. 06-25

From the Leftmedia Psychosis Files:

"This trip was not only surrounded in secrecy, there was a bit of deception as well." — ABC's Martha Raddatz incredulous that the President's visit to Iraq wasn't carefully detailed to the press in advance.

"I wonder to what degree anybody in the White House thought maybe it might undermine our point if we have to take such excessive security precautions in order to go claim victory or whatever it was the President was trying to accomplish?" — PBS's "Washington Week" host Gwen Ifill.

Trying to hide the white flag: "[A]re you comfortable with characterizing the Democrats as people who want to cut and run?" — CBS's Bob Schieffer to Tony Snow.

From the "Dan Rather" School of Journalism: "Inside the insurgency: Documents purportedly from insurgents speak of their failures and coalition successes. Are the documents genuine?" — ABC's Charlie Gibson **Try asking Mary Mapes.

That 70s Show:

"Do you see, as some of your critics do, a parallel between what's going on in Iraq now and Vietnam?" — ABC's Ann Compton to President Bush.

"Do you ever have a moment where you feel this just won't end well, that no matter how many Zarqawis are killed, the insurgents are just never going to give up?" — CBS's Jim Axelrod to President Bush.

From the "Cut and Run" Files:

"I don't know how many times we have heard the president say, 'We will stand down as the Iraqis stand up.' I don't want to hear that anymore. It seems to me that that mantra no longer stands. That is, we have to start bringing our troops home." — Harry Reid, who voted against bringing our troops home.

"We need to redeploy our troops... They've become the targets, they're caught in the civil war, and I feel very strongly about it." — John Murtha.

"[T]he people that are cutting and running are the administration when it comes to truth about Iraq and about their policies in Iraq, about the misguided information, the lack of intelligence, and the misinformation that they gave the American people as a basis for the invasion of Iraq, and the continued misinterpretation." — Ted Kennedy.

"I don't know why we are so afraid to stand up and say, look, we want to see an end to this thing... Three years and three months into a mission that was supposed to take 30 or 40 days... That isn't cutting and running." — Dianne Feinstein **Who said it would take 30 or 40 days?

"If I'd known the president was going to be this incompetent in his administration, I would not have given him the authority [to go into Iraq]. Had I been president, I would have asked for the authority." — Joe Biden, who also voted against bringing our troops home.

Off the charts: "The entire country may disagree with me, but I don't understand the necessity for patriotism. Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why? You can like where you live and like your life, but as for loving the whole country... I don't see why people care about patriotism." — Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks.

Speaking of patriotism: "They're moral human beings who don't want to go to Iraq and kill innocent people to line the pockets of George Bush and the war machine." — Cindy Sheehan.

Jay Leno: President Bush went to Iraq to boost the new government. That shows how rough the situation is in Iraq when a guy with a 30% approval rating stops by to give you a boost. ... President Bush sneaked into Iraq without any formal paperwork, which I guess would make him an undocumented leader. ... President Bush returned safely from his surprise trip to Iraq. A lot of people criticize him, saying he was only in Iraq for five hours. Hey, it's still five hours longer than the French were there. ... Democrats are refusing to give President Bush any credit for killing al-Zarqawi. Like today Al Gore blamed it on global warming. And John Kerry said of the two 500 pound bombs that hit the safe house, he voted for the first bomb—not the second one. ... Gore said they could have gotten the same job done with one hybrid mini bomb that runs on vegetable oil. Less pollution. ... What's the difference between al-Zarqawi and Patrick Kennedy? Patrick Kennedy will get bombed again. ...
