Aside from politicians, lawyers, union thugs, parasites and oppressive laws, just what in the hell does the East Coast produce?

LOL! But please limit that comment to the Northeast...starting around Richmond VA and southward on the east coast is a whole different world...

[maryz]

Equivocating even then -- called on his words (about representing a "very much larger group"), he has to come up with a plausible explanation of how he wasn't lying.

[cricket]

"Was he trying to sound "British?"...He sounds like he's trying to imitate John Cleese."

Hard to imagine that accent on a 'Swift Boat'. . .

[mathluv]

He had that snake-like flicker of his tongue even then!

"Kerry entered and abandoned Vietnamese village and slaughtered domestic animals
owned by the civilians and burned down their homes with his Zippo lighter."



It only takes one idiot to raze a village!

(My original response!)

[nicmarlo]

O'Neil saying that one person has been produced to sign a deposition, of the claimed thousands....saying that's pathetic....

Kerry saying, "as to my being a liar, giggle, in my testimony...I said I represent one in one group of 1,000,....I referred to a large organization....as to this question as to who speaks to the majority and all this personal vindictiveness, that's not what we're here to talk about, we're here to talk about this war.....the issue is "why can't we set a date"....when we know people will stop being maimed for the mose senseless purpose in the world....

[kingattax]

The reason those "vets" didnt sign depositions was because it was later proven they were NEVER in the service, and they testified with Comrade Kerry in the senate hearings.

[tame]

"I want to know why we cont set a date..."

You idiot Kerry. The date is after the job is done.

[ChadGore]

" Set a Date " . . . sound familiar ?

[nicmarlo]

yeah, he giggled, with his head down...

[nicmarlo]

snake-like flicker of his tongue even then!

Once a snake, always a snake.

[ChadGore]

Dick Cavett is not a ballanced, host.

Liberal media bias at it's worst.

[Exit148]

I noticed the white/black look --- good guy/bad guy.

O'Neill really had his facts, even back then -- and isn't intimidated by that smug other one.

[ChadGore]

This suck is soooo stuck up.

[tame]

Kerry is evil.

Media : Kerry lies about being in Cambodia Dec 1968
http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&edition=us&ie=ascii&q=john+kerry+1968+Cambodia&btnG=Search+News

So what are we to make of Sen. Kerry's self-seared 30-year-old false memory
of Christmas in Cambodia with its vast accumulation of precise details?
Of being shot at by the Khmer Rouge (unlikely in 1968) and of South Vietnamese
troops drunkenly celebrating Christmas (as only devout Buddhists know how)?
It's not about dates and places.
For Kerry, his Yuletide mission was an epiphany:
the moment when he realized his government was lying to the people about what was going on.
This is the turning point, the moment that set the young Kerry on the path from
brave young war volunteer to fierce anti-war activist.
And it turns out it's total bunk.

Got it on tape when they replayed it the first time (don't remember how long that's been - a couple months?) Thanks for the ping. Everybody should tape it. It's a keeper.

[Jeff Head]

O'Neill handed Kerry's backside to him on a platter back then in 1971...and he's doing it again now.

Thank God for the integrity, commitment and honor of this man and the SwiftVets.

Kerry, the prissy media, the gnashing liberals (Davis and Carville), and those who love and live a lie cannot hold a candle to such individuals.

[tame]

The audience seems a bit to the left. But O'Neill is solid, strong and right on!

[areafiftyone]

What a Freakin phoney John Kerry is. He is imitating John Kennedy's voice. That man thinks he is John F. Kennedy. EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
