Formal Complaint Filed Over Senator’s Vietnam Awards, Post-Service Activities
(Washington, D.C.) – Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, today filed a request with the U.S. Navy and the Defense Department for an investigation into the awards granted to Sen. John Kerry during his service with the U.S. Navy in Vietnam. Judicial Watch also requested that military authorities investigate Kerry’s anti-war activities, including his meeting with North Vietnamese and Viet Cong delegations in Paris, while a member of the Naval Reserve.
Basing its requests on a recently published book, Unfit for Command, by former Navy officer John E. O’Neill and Harvard University professor Jerome R. Corsi, and on news media interviews of other officers and sailors who served with Kerry, Judicial Watch notes that unresolved allegations against Kerry include: false official reports and statements; dishonorable conduct; aiding the enemy; dereliction of duty; misuse and abuse of U.S. government equipment and property; war crimes; and multiple violations of U.S. Navy regulations and directives, the Uniform Code of Military Justice and the U.S. Code.
Kerry was awarded three Purple Hearts, a Silver Star and a Bronze Star for “wounds” received and actions in Vietnam, but eyewitnesses refute his version of a number of the events that were the basis for receiving the commendations. Judicial Watch is asking the Department of Defense and the U.S. Navy, including its Department Board of Decorations and Medals, to look into the circumstances surrounding Kerry’s awards.
Judicial Watch also is requesting an investigation of Kerry’s anti-war activities. After he was released from active duty but while he was a commissioned officer in the inactive Naval Reserve, Kerry joined the anti-war group Vietnam Veterans Against the War and traveled to Paris to meet with delegations from North Vietnam and the Communist Viet Cong. He held a press conference in Washington, D.C., following the meeting and advocated the “peace proposal,” which included war damage reparations, put forth by the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong.
“The allegations concerning Kerry’s conduct during the Vietnam War are credible, serious and shocking,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The sooner an investigation begins, the better.”
Maybe into partnership with Jack Thompson?
What will be interesting is to see what percentage of our electorate will actually stoop to voting for such an audacious fraud. I fear it will be depressingly high.
Wow is right but I would love to see JW record for actually winning a case out of the hundreds they filed against the clintons
Bwahahahahahahaha!!! That's cruel, man...;-)
OOOOOOOO, Lurch's camp is shaking in their boots...(sarcasm/off)
I heard one of the Swift Boat Vets interviewed on our local radio talk show (sorry, can't remember which one).
He told the talk show host that the SBV have more suprises up their sleeves. He said they were not showing all of their cards up front because they know the media won't cover them.
IMO They are doing this the right way by keeping this in news as much and as long as possible.
MKM
"he will talk about Vietnam all day, its the VVAW he doesn't want addressed."
And he spent much longer in the latter than he did in the former.
duh duh duh duh...
(music from jaws)
Judicial Watch is getting involved.. uh oh...
"Pinglists please"
I don't think anyone is claiming this is the end of John Kerry.
The announcement itself is more kindling for the press fire.
Anything more is gravy, imho.
People voting for him do not care what he did or didn't do. It's Clinton all over again in that respect. I have given up on trying to enlighten anyone with that Kerry gleam in their eye. It is generally backed by minimal info and that's just the way they like it.
Overall, I am still undecided about JW. In this instance, because of their past, they become part of the story. That's not good.
I understand.
J.W. reminds me of the guys at the ball game who jump around waving their arms in back of the announcer during the post game show.
Any time there's a camera rolling, they have to make their presence known.
somehow I doubt it. It will be discounted by the MSM
