Any bets on whether John McCain calls Bob Dole "dishonorable and disrespectful" for questioning John Kerry's purple hearts?

How old are you? I thought you were the usual early-twenties law student. Sounds like you are, instead, a middle-aged guy going back to law school in mid-career. I can appreciate that, because I did that. Wife and three children and a full-time job when I went to law school.

If that's your story, then good on you times two.

My Favorite post for dims and trolls
who slither in here each day.
And the Lame Stream media
who find the real news on Free Republic,
then rewrite and spin the truth.


Mommy Heinz!
Help!


Look what the Washington Post said on 8/21/04

"Although Kerry campaign officials insist that they have published Kerry's full military records on their Web site (with the exception of medical records shown briefly to reporters earlier this year), they have not permitted independent access to his original Navy records. A Freedom of Information Act request by The Post for Kerry's records produced six pages of information. A spokesman for the Navy Personnel Command, Mike McClellan, said he was not authorized to release the full file, which consists of at least a hundred pages. "

Look! What the Harvard Crimson wrote about me in 1970

Published on Wednesday, February 18, 1970
John Kerry: A Navy Dove Runs for Congress
By SAMUEL Z. GOLDHABER
Crimson Staff Writer

"...One time Kerry was ordered to destroy a Viet Cong village
but disobeyed orders and suggested that the Navy Command
simply send in a Psychological Warfare team to be
friend the villagers with food, hospital supplies,
and better educational facilities."



Now my shipmates on the
USS GRIDLEY CG-21
are attacking me.

Click Here Mommy
and see what
the USS GRIDLEY crew say.


They say I told lies in Tour of Duty
GRIDLEY CREW ARE LIKE
SWIFT BOAT VETS MEANIES!

Mommy : People can get
MY real book here FREE!!
I'm so proud of !
The New Soldier,
By John Kerry
and Vietnam Veterans
Against the War



Mommy : Please don't be mad
about my hero Al Hubbard.

Head of Kerry's Vietnam Vets Against the War was Vietnam Vet phony
"Many of the stories were later shown to be fictional. Other so-called Vietnam veterans, such as the executive secretary of VVAW, Al Hubbard, a self-styled poet ("See what you've become, Amerika," ends one of his Vietnam odes),
turned out to have no record of service in Vietnam."



Mommy : Why does McCain
still campaign with Bush?
Mommy : Why doesn't Al Gore defend me?
He is a Vietnam Vet.

Mommy : Did Hillary
"leak" FBI Files on me?
I even used her famous slogan?


"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!)


Mommy : Where is Ted Kennedy?

If I cut myself shaving while CNN is on the TV, can I get a Bronze Star for being wounded while under enemy fire?

No. Watching CNN is a self-infliced wound.

BUT you can ge a Purple Heart because your feelings were hurt:)

"I've herad that Bob Dole has a very dim view of Kerry."

Served with him in Senate for many years. Who should know him better?

Kerry became well known, by his anti-war efforts. Dole carries his war wounds by his side, all the time.

Two different types of men. Dole knows oh so well.

"When Kerry was dispatched to go to An Thoi with Lieutenant Tedd Peck(now Captain, USNR), Peck told him, "Kerry, follow me no closer than a thousand yards.If you get any closer,I'll teach you what a real Purple Heart is."

Priceless. I'm glad that I donated my second $100 to the real warriors, Swift Boat Vets Funds for TV ads!

Thanks for sharing this!

10:1 McCain states "I respect Bob Dole. I don't know what he said. " and leaves the interviewer's question hanging.

Never trust McCain. EVER.

Kerry said Swift-boats vets did NOT exist before his nomination. Donna Brazile on CNN just said this group supported him in past elections. Who is correct?

Good luck finding it. I haven't been able to. What I really wish we'd start talking about is Kerry's Senate record.

I don't think this is going wrong. It is right on target. Questions about the medals have led to discussions of anti-war activities. We are heading to Kansas City, November 12-15, 1971. John Kerry is in deep trouble and Hillary is popping the corks on the champagne.

I saw something about the swift vets group being a group over the years -- though not for any particular purpose, but I'm not sure. It is true that a couple of the swift boat vets spoke up for Kerry before one election (1996?) to defend him from charges of being a war criminal.

I just read a post by some democrats calling these guys "lying whores" and "how dare they question a war hero like John Kerry".

These people are nuts if they can't catch the irony.

Kay Hutchinson now is being terrific. While decrying 527s all around she made several excellent points:

These Swift Vets have free speech rights and her understanding is they have raised money from small donors across the country (true).

She knows Merrie Speath and has never heard Merrie was involved, as Wolf alleged, in the 2000 McCain attack ads.

Kay pointed out that when a group decides they need funding it is natural to go to those you think might be sympathetic and willing to help. That is not the same as the Bush campaign engineering the group's activities. Not at all.

(Donna Brazille just said Kerry has denounced the liberal 527s and that shows how tough he is. Not so fast, Donna. He denounced them before he embraced them. As of Friday Debra Deshong with the Kerry Kamp--right from one of is offices--said they had no problems with Moveon.org. Debra lied that Moveone was completely independent and had a right to free speech, unlike, said Debra, the Swift Vets who are lying and are merely a front for the Bush Campaign. So you see, Donna, Kerry was against Moveon but now he is for it).

Before the Donna statement, Kay managed to work in that we should be talking about the issues, and then got in how Harold Ickes is with the DNC AND is a major donor to 527s.

She said Bush's guard service was completely acceptable and was in fact a service to our country. She said he's been attacked unmercifully and unfairly about it, but has gone about his business and is addressing the issues.

Another excellent outing by our side and Wolf's plaintive tone in framing the questions to the Republican guests says it all.

Wolf's show is over.
