John Kerry : "war hero" or a "war criminal"

John Kerry is either a "war hero" or a "war criminal"
Can't have it both ways.
John Kerry and War Crimes in Vietnam
He was in command of a Swift Boat
and ordered his men to do these things.
Listen to this 1971 audio clip in Kerry's own words.
LONG BEFORE THE '04 Election
Listen Here
John Kerry went before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations in 1971
to accuse the United States military
of committing massive numbers of war crimes in Vietnam.
So my question is did Kerry lie about his "heroism" or the "atrocities" that he took part in?
Did he lie to his superiors in Dec 68 - March 69 to obtain his medals or did he lie in 1971?
And if he didn't lie then why didn't he report the crimes that he saw?
After all he was in command of a Swift Boat, not just a crew member following orders.
All John Kerry has to do is authorize the release of ALL of his military records.
OR admit that he lied in 1971.
Kerry made Vietnam the center of his campaign.
It's up to Kerry and Kerry only to set the record straight.
BEFORE NOV 2nd.

I heard or read one take yesterday that after f'ing got his third purple heart he was "requested" to leave by a superior and did so the next day. It seems they did not want his type around.

"Based on Fox News' performance in the past two days, I doubt they would even ask the question, either. Bill O'Reilly, Sheperd Smith, and a female filling in last night for Greta VanSusteren all have been biased against the SwiftVets. I would like someone to tell me what is going on at Fox. Has there been a coup there? Is Roger Ailes gone? Someone said their email to Ailes was bounced back as "undeliverable"."
FOX is running scared. A large group are threatening legal action because they are 'fair-and-balanced' thereby falling out of step with the mainstream. I suspect they will stay to the left now!
Sad...truly sad!

I am proud of this -- I got banned from DU last night (where I was happily Trolling) because I kept asking them to tell me how I could tell my "conservative friends" how Mr. Heinz could possibly lead the country after having only 130 days of service?
I also asked how "we" (them) can run on an anti-war platform if "our" (their) candidate was so against it after so short a time.
Their answer: Ban me.
You rock Tonk!

Maybe we can get springstein to write a song "banned from DU" to the tune of born in the USA. Naaahhh he's probably a major poster on DU.

John Kerry : "war hero" or a "war criminal"? This is a trick question, right?

I've been a little concerned about O'Reilly and Smith lately also. It seems they are so very poorly informed and base their opinions on this lack of information, I'm considering not watching anymore.

Were those film excursions, travel and use of a Navy swift boat and personal employment of Navy personnel authorized? Who held the camera? Lots of questions regarding these adventures of LT jg Kerry here. Does conduct unbecoming.....ring a bell?

Even E.D. in the morning has turned liberal, Its a damned shame. I have never like O'Reilly but now the whole network is beginning to suck.

I think E.D. changes political positions every time she changes clothes.

John Kerry is nothing but a war criminal. In my opinion he should be tried and shot for treason. He spent only four months in Vietnam and came back only to call his fellow Americans baby killers. He is a low-life, and I pray to God he doesn't become president. I am only fourteen and know that if he is elected he will do nothing but drive this wonderful country down. Since I can not vote, all I can do is hope that John Kerry is not elected.
