I heard this man on the Sean Hannity program yesterday and was greatly moved.

How is Kerry going to answer this charge? This man is not a Swift Boat Vet, but a POW who suffered because of Kerry.

Perhaps, a better question would be: how would our current men and women in uniform in harm's way suffer were Kerry to become Commander-in-Chief?

Galanti and others who were harmed by scum like Kerry and McNamara could get satisfaction if this country would finally hold the warcrimes trials it so badly needs.

It wasn't the troops doing warcrimes ~ it was high officials in the government who were doing warcrimes against the troops, and that still requires resolution.

I saw him too. The pain in his eyes weas heartbreaking. He spent 7 years in a POW camp, and this pos skerry was safe at home calling them war criminals, then to ad insult to injury he actually uses the POW's as a campaign issue in his 1971 political campaign. skerry is one sicko, lying pos. Oh yes, gigilo, slimeball, etc etc etc.

"George Bush, denounce the smear, get back to the issues. America deserves better."

Bush has done nothing but talk about the issues.
This isn't Bush's war. This is between Kerry and the SBV.
Fight your own battles, Kerry. Bush can't save you. He's working.

When are people going to talk about the fact that because of what Kerry said millions of soldiers were spat upon in the United States. This man robed an entire generation of soldiers of honor.

When will that story be told?

Of course he lied. Buy his own definition, how could he know what others did that he did not serve with?

There is something out that says that Kerry and the VVAW supplied these tapes to the NV during their visits to NV.

The FBI files mention several times about differant members/leaders of VVAW going to NV.

Galanti does not remember hearing Kerry's name at the Hanoi Hilton, but he does remember the voice.


This is important. Sometimes a sound or smell can be seared into your memory.

I heard somewhere that Kerry traveled to Paris to meet with the NV about 1971.
If so, it sounds like he was supporting their cause in many ways.

"The Vietnamese are telling us, 'we're never going home because we're war criminals.' And here comes a guy purporting to be an American Naval officer saying, 'Yeah, we did commit war crimes,' saying exactly what they said. It was just devastating. Terribly demoralizing.""

Demoralizing is what Hillary, McDermott, Nancy Pelosi, Ted Kennedy, Terry Mcawful - all have demoralized our troops - Hillary's Thanksgiving trip; McDermott finding his Potemkin Village in Baghdad; Kennedy's constant insults to the troops Commander in Chief and President and all the other garbage the Democratic Party, Democratic Socialists of America and the Black Caucus have spewed out over the last 3 years. They are just a guilty today as John Kerry was in 1971 when he dissed all who served in Viet Nam - they hoped to turn Afghanistan and Iraq into the same purple war.

This time they can't as brave men are stepping forth with truth as their weapon, serving their country once again in the time honored fashion of “Duty, Honor, Country.” How lovely it is to hear John Kerry and his campaign gang cry UNCLE!

Advice to President Bush:
Sir, this isn’t going away so stay out of it. The people are speaking out as never before about a traitor who misled his country and left comrades to bleed and die while giving succor and aid to the enemy. John Kerry IS truly NOT FIT TO COMMAND HIS SENATE RECORD PROVES IT. Mr. President this is not your fight – you take care of the nation and we’ll take care of the rest.

Galanti said it was the French pronunciation of Genghis that stuck in his mind--that was the tip off.
