I'm sure Kerry considers this a tour -

Steve Gardners a real Vietnam hero. They didn't want mess with him, let alone hear his side of the story, because his story rocks J F'n K's story.

"Over the next three years Gardner served as gunner on four different Swift boats, each with a different commanding officer. His least favorite was his last: Lieutenant (j.g.) John F. Kerry of PCF-44. When describing Kerry he unloads choice adjectives, opportunist being his favorite. His most colorful phrase is claiming that all Kerry wanted to do was save his lily-white ass. Up until now he has kept his resentment mostly to himself. Ive told a few of my friends that he was an asshole, Gardner says. But Im not looking to make news."

The media KNEW that Gardner served on the same boat as Kerry. This story carries a March date.

Twice in the last few days I have heard the Kerry talking heads say that Kerry volunteered for Vietnam THREE TIMES.

What are they talking about?

Thanks for the link. Steve was on Scarbororough friday night and he destroyed that Hurley goon. He didn't mince word on that show either. He told hurley at one time "yeah keep shaking your head, buddy" when he was talking about the false after action report kerry wrote up during the sam pan incident. When asked by Pat Buchanan about kerrys credibility, he told him point blank "he has none". Also,when asked where they were on christmas eve 68, he said they were at camp 50 miles away watching "visions of sugar plums dancing around in kerrys head". It was funny as hell. Goon hurley was smoking from the ears.
Steve said he was with queery on every mission during kerrys 4 months.
Steve Gardner is rock solid in his asessment of kerry. The more air time he gets, the better.

Thanks again

1970-05-12 That is the date Charles MacMahon from Larose, Louisiana died in Vietnam. While Charles was dying John Kerry's speech and actions were giving and and comfort to the people that killed Charles. Is the blood of Charles Macmahon on John Kerrys hands? I think so.

So does General Giap, the commander of North Vietnamese Forces during the war. Read his memoirs about how essential the Anti War Protesters were to the Victory of North Vietnam.
