In an interview published Friday in the LOS ANGELES TIMES, Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry claimed he "never ever implied" that he threw his own medals on the Hill in 1971 to appear as an antiwar hero -- but a new shock video shows John Kerry's saying he did!
ABC's GOOD MORNING AMERICA is set to rock the political world Monday morning with an airing of Kerry's 1971 boast, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

I know it well. We have gone through his medals closely. This has been my contention all along as far as the fact that Lehman, SECNAV (1981-87), signed the citations even though ADm Hyland and Zumwalt had also signed them. If there is proof that he threw the medals away, this makes sense. It also fits Kerry's modus operandi. He is so obsessed with his decorations that he updated his DD214 in 2001!!!

The lefties have finally admitted they're saddled with a stiff who will damage their party in November. They've decided there's too much garbage to overcome. Kill him before the convention. A new candidate will make for good news for month leading up the convention and the election, too. I vote for Torricelli, btw.

He lied about a lie he lied about, a lie he lied about ? Not only is Kerry not sure whose medals he threw over the fence -- he is not certain which side of the fence he was standing on at the time.
More likely, he was attempting to straddle the fence and throw in both directions.
To: gawd
he did a tour on a patrol boat in the NamMake that "part of a tour" since due to two scratches and a bruise his tour was cut short.

Liberals simply can't grasp the problem Lexis-Nexis poses to their incessant lying.
Yes, the Internet has made it much more difficult to hide or spin the truth. Little wonder, Hillary and many other politiicans advocate putting controls on the Internet. hehehe.

Kerry detoured from his vacation to meet with South and North Vietnamese delegates to the Paris peace talks. How a 26-year-old private citizen without a political track record connected with the negotiators is unclear.Kerry was also a member of the inactive Naval reserves but still eligible for recall. Kerry's website lists his military service as 1966-70 active duty and 1972-78 Reserves. In 1972 he shifted from inactive to standby Reserves. I don't think it is an oversight that Kerry conveniently doesn't account for his military status during the period 1970-1, the period of his antiwar activities.

He certainly would have had the money to buy "new medals"! Money obviously can buy.....anything he wants.

I can't see Kerry walking away quietly "in the best interest of the party. He's way too arrogant for that... doesn't matter how many FBI files are stuffed in the pantsuit.
Kerry is all about Kerry and this is his shot at the big job.

CORRECTION : He did a bit over 1/4 of the normal 'tour'.

He didn't have buy new medals, just ask the Navy to furnish replacements. As a US Senator, that wouldn't be difficult.
