BUMP

CRAWFORD, Texas - Former Republican Sen. Bob Dole suggested Sunday that John Kerry (news - web sites) apologize for past testimony before Congress about alleged atrocities during the Vietnam War and joined critics of the Democratic presidential candidate who say he received an early exit from combat for "superficial wounds."

Dole uses the 'apology' card cleverly, it's about time the pub's start demanding public apologies from demmies.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Dole on the right page?

What's the catch?

[Gatún(CraigIsaMangoTreeLawyer)]

Will some of you military and ex military folks explain something to me. Kerry pulls a man out of the water into his swift boat. How is this physically possible (and supposedly he did it with hand) if the man in the water is about 4 or 5 or more feet below Kerry?

Thank you.

Does anyone know John Hurley's background?

[austingirl]

The dim spin is that Kerry was testifying to what others told him - I guess that means you go before Congress to testify (under oath?) about things you aren't really sure of? Outrageous.

"Senator Kerry carries shrapnel in his thigh as distinct from President Bush who carries two fillings in his teeth from his service in the Alabama National Guard, which seems to be his only time that he showed up," John Podesta, former chief of staff in the Clinton White House, said on ABC's "This Week."

Talk about a vile smear. The only time Bush showed up was to go to the dentist? I wish the Pubbies would show more outrage about these despicable lies.

"It’s faster than a checkbook, more powerful than a Democratic demagogue, able to lay waste to a liar Kerry with the single click of a mouse. It's a little bird of truth, it's plain to see Kerry's unfit... it's... it's...SuperFReep!

Maybe someone should ask Podesta if he's stopped beating his wife yet...

I am one of those people who believe there's a reason
for everything, and I am thinking now, that Bob Dole's
reputation as a NICE, FAIR guy has now come into play
when it's most needed. To wit:


Dole told CNN's "Late Edition" that he warned Kerry months ago about going "too far" and that the Democrat may have himself to blame for the current situation, in which polls show him losing support among veterans.

"One day he's saying that we were shooting civilians, cutting off their ears, cutting off their heads, throwing away his medals or his ribbons," Dole said. "The next day he's standing there, `I want to be president because I'm a Vietnam veteran.

"Maybe he should apologize to all the other 2.5 million veterans who served. He wasn't the only one in Vietnam," said Dole, whose World War II wounds left him without the use of his right arm.

Dole added: "And here's, you know, a good guy, a good friend. I respect his record. But three Purple Hearts and never bled that I know of. I mean, they're all superficial wounds. Three Purple Hearts and you're out."




Bob Dole has the credentials and the solid
reputation as a forthright and fair partisan,
and his words hit Kerry hard.

If nothing else, Bob Dole is believed by the
voters...

Dole also called on Kerry to release all the records of his service in Vietnam.

Good for the Honorable Mr. Dole!

However, want in one hand and %$#$ in the other and see which one fills first!

Kerry's disclosure of such records would be like the Titanic hitting another ice berg before sinking!

[what's up]

Good for Dole...this could be his best service yet in a list of good services to the US if he continues with this.

Dole also called on Kerry to release all the records of his service in Vietnam.

Oh, I love this!

"One day he's saying that we were shooting civilians, cutting off their ears, cutting off their heads, throwing away his medals or his ribbons," Dole said. "The next day he's standing there, `I want to be president because I'm a Vietnam veteran. "Maybe he should apologize to all the other 2.5 million veterans who served. He wasn't the only one in Vietnam," said Dole"

Ouch! That "left" a mark.

5 Legislative Days Left Until The AWB Expires

Dole knows what it means to be wounded in combat. He's incensed at Kerry's three superficial purple hearts where he didn' lose a day's time, didn't go to the hospital, and had no visible ill effect.

For a guy who was wounded like Dole was in fighting, it's clear Kerry was grandstanding.

[nuconvert]

Good for YOU, Sen. Dole !

[DaveMSmith]

Devastating news piece for Kerry. Hopefully, the MSM is understanding it now. Once they examine the bronze star citation and Kerry's bios with the accepted accounts today, they have him. I give it a week.

"Senator Kerry carries shrapnel in his thigh"

This is true. It's the reason Kerry can't fly commercial. Can't get by the metal detectors. Same reason he can't perform his duties in the Senate. The metal detectors keep him out.
