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.
YOU are the future!
It's an honor to have you here.
Welcome to Free Republic, friend!
God bless you for all your efforts here on this issue and for working to nut up the wobblies Sir!
Thank you again. I have to go. I am going to the cigar bar with my Dad (Bronxboy). I am not allowed to smoke, but I like to hang out with my Dad and the guys. We talk about guy stuff (like women). Don't tell my Mom! Some of the guys were soldiers, and they talk about what happened. I am going to be a Marine someday.
"I am going to be a Marine someday."
And a fine one you'll be!
Is there a good public source for this I can use? Where I live a shirker is the worst of the worst, and if this info was on a reputable site, I think people would really pause before voting for Kerry.
*Big BUMP* to your post. Succinct and powerful summary.
I say "Ole Yellow Stain" is a commie war criminal.
He only made the one mission with us, but I really liked the old guy. Because of his medical conditions we made him the M-79 grenadier. He had never fired one before, but was pretty darn good by the time we hit the river. He could drop a round through a window at a hundred yards.
What many civilians dont seem to be aware of - particularly when they bitch about military retiree benefits - is that we are never retired in the civilian sense of the word. Were always subject to being called up again, as has been seen recently.
Lying, coward, yellow-bellied turncoat war criminal. Ask me how I REALLY feel!
I was thinking husbands.
EXACTLY
And while they're at it, someone should make a campaign ad with a former POW describing how prisoners were tortured and tormented by their North Vietnamese prison guards who would wave Kerry's congressional testimony in their faces to accuse them of being criminals.
End the campaign ad with the question: "How many American soldiers died while Kerry lied?
It is WAY past time to take off the gloves in this campaign.
Bump!
Thank you so much for sharing that!
