I-i-i-i-i-i like it. Quagmire it is.
rack it!
BTTT for Jug Burkett, a Vietnam veteran who has done more than anyone else to cut through the lies and get the truth out there.
I met Burkett when he was selling his book all by himself. Heck of a guy!
Pundits keep saying it's the negative ads and "hard to prove truths" that are hurting Kerry. In all actuality, it is the fact that he illegally visited VC leaders in Paris to engage in secret and treasonous negotiations, he campaigned to lose the war on lies and slander against our fighting troops, and he continued to negate reasonable efforts to establish global military superiority and homeland security by standing against missile defense.
Kerry's public, admitted record is only reinforced by the rumors and complaints we no hear made by honorable and highly decorated peers who served in similar capacities to Kerry.
Kerry opposed the war with unscrupulous means and came home to continue undermining our defense establishment. Finally, he has continually attacked a sitting president for partisan reasons.
Kerry and his foreign-born wife have proven that they are not fit to occupy our whitehouse.
The particulars of his four month "stint" on the swift boats are interesting, but his polling values are falling because people have realized that he can't command our military.
How can any historian ignore statements like Kerry's made?
"In an interview on NBC's "Meet The Press" last Sunday, Kerry was asked about statements he made about Vietnam War atrocities during an interview with the same program in 1971, when he was a leader in the antiwar movement:"
"There are all kinds of atrocities, and I would have to say that, yes, yes, I committed the same kind of atrocities as thousands of other soldiers have committed, in that I took part in shootings in free-fire zones, I conducted harassment and interdiction fire, I used .50-caliber machine guns which were granted and ordered to use, which were our only weapon against people. I took part in search-and-destroy missions, in the burning of villages," Kerry said in 1971.

Could a sitting Senator be imprisoned for crimes commited while in the military? Did they ever actually put Benedict Arnold in prison or did he excape first?
As a swing voter, I can no longer consider voting for Kerry without first seeing and evaluating what he is hiding. I'm sorry John, but I think you are lying!
We've become conditioned to the hollywood flick of "mines" blowing up where its actually small packages with 2-4 ounces of low explosives and has some gasoline and other pyrotechnics to make it look powerful on the screen. Actually sea mines with approx 20+ pounds of High Explosives will actually tear a boat in two and the people therein will lose body parts for the explosive force of it.
So all in all it proves the point that the so-called "HERO" Kerry didnt dodge or survive a mine (that would be physically impossible since they'll be in little pieces) but instead the guy fell off the boat due to Kerry's reckeless managing the boat.
So instead of a medal he should have been disciplined at the Very least for endangering lives.
I'd love to see that, but Kerry can't because as little/any that he was really wounded, he obviously didn't deserve those three purple hearts. Bob Dole was crippled for life and almost died in WWII and he only has two purple hearts and one bronze star. He wasn't putting himself in for medals, though. Also, Dole never claimed to have have thrown his medals over the White House fence (now it was Kerry's medal ribbons that he threw), and then run for presidency bragging about those same medals he so despised every chance he gets.
In contrast, President Bush never attempted to stop the showing of Fahrenheit 9/11--or anything else. He actually believes in Freedom of Speech.
"This is not a bunch of Republicans going after Kerry. If Kerry were running as a Republican, the attacks would be just the same."
On the other hand, Michael Moore was given a prominent "place of honor" at the Democrat National Convention--which is fitting considering the Democrats' concept of honor and the value they place on it.
"A sign of desperation?"
You bet.
