They hate guns, love gays and despise the President.
Ping the Ohio list, please.
Mr. Kerrry you are on video tape acting as the ad hoc representative of the enemy in 1971, and are on record presenting the Communist surrender demands directly to the United States Senate.
Coupled with Madam Binh's "Eight Point" surrender demand you leveled bizarre, baseless and scurrilous accusations against the decent men of the United States military in VietNam.
You have no excuses - there can be no excuse.

I wonder where and when Joe Hallet served.
Obviously, Joe Hallett needs to get out more. Although it is hard to learn the facts with one's head buried in the sand.
You cannot tear down what never was!
oooooooh...those wascawwy Wepubwicans.
The libs are freaking out and don't know what to do. This guy is more restrained than the folks over at DU. I can only imagine its bedlam there.
Uhhhhhhh....okayyyy.
Then what, exactly, is the problem here?
Hallet's hypocrisy is oozing. We have no right to criticize Kerry as a fraud but its okay for him to trash vets and call them liars. The liberal mindset at work.
Here you go. Something for your enjoyment.
The cool morning mist settled over the Cambodian border. The engine hummed, moving the swift boat slowly through the mined river. They weren't supposed to be here. It wasn't supposed to be this way. An illegal war conducted by President Nixon. It didn't make sense. Everything about this mission was wrong.
Lt. Kerry's mission was an impossible one. Find and silence Colonel Kurtz. Why had Colonel Kurtz fled to Cambodia? What madness had driven him to this? And why had they chosen him?
It didn't matter now. Now he had to find Colonel Kurtz. He had to silence this loose cannon. Something had to be done. Was he the man to do it? He didn't know. The personal demons had haunted him for far too long. He wanted to be patriotic. He needed to be patriotic. But a political career lay in wait for him back in the States.
Suddenly, the swift boat left the air from the thrust of the mine. Lt. Kerry didn't hestitate. He didn't second guess. He floored the throttle in retreat, hearing a scream from the stern. He looked back to see Jim Rassman in the water.
Could he leave him? Jim was just along for the ride. A ride taking them deep into the Cambodian jungle in search of a madman. The second passed, but Lt. Kerry knew he could leave no man behind.
The fifty caliber machine gun fire barked loudly from the shoreline. Then, he remembered it. He reached in his duffle bag at his side and pulled out his 8mm camera. He jerked the steering, turning the boat around and yelling, "Let's go boys. We're only gonna have one take at this!"
:) HA!
My husband has been a Ranger four over 15 years and has been awarded several medals. The difference is Kerry used them to get out of service while my husband is still serving in Iraqi.
I've wondered about that myself. Kerry wanted this debate, he got it. I don't understand for the life of me why liberals are so upset. He's a war hero, after all.
Perfect.

Obviously these folks think going for a beer is war. They must think going for a glass of Chablis is hell incarnate..
James Carville told me that you weren't on the same boat as Mr. Kerry, so you are not qualified to comment.
Your editorial shows that you are willingly allowing Mr. Kerry to make you look like his obsequious courtier, rather than the gravelly, hard-bitten reporter I'm sure you really are.
