Public Statements

Speaker: Senator John Forbes Kerry (MA) Title: Martin Luther King Day Celebration Remarks Location: Richmond, VA Date: 01/20/2003 Senator John Kerry Remarks As Prepared For Delivery Martin Luther King Day Celebration Richmond, Virginia January 20, 2003

What a privilege it is for me to join you in celebrating the life and the personal journey of Dr. Martin Luther King...

I remember well April, 1968 - I was serving in Vietnam—a place of violence -- when the news reports brought home to me and my crewmates the violence back home - and the tragic news that one of the bullets flying that terrible spring took the life of that unabashedly maladjusted citizen.

John Kerry arrived in Viet Nam in November 1968. In the version of reality that is in my mind, November came after April in the year 1968.

Good move on Kerry's part, maybe he can alienate the African-American community too.

Okay, so he was there before he was there. Big deal.

And, is your recollection of the calendar seared, seared in your mind?

This Kerry speech is as phony as a three dollar bill. But it's like everything else about Botoxboy. Fake, fake, fake. As GW says, catch Kerry tomorrow, he'll say the opposite of whatever he's said today.

HE WAS ON THE USS GRIDLEY THEN - THIS IS A MISNOMER That said, most of the time spent on the USS Gridley was spent off the coast of California but it's another setup.

Cut Kerry some slack. His mind was only seared, not blackened.

Im not a theologist, nor have I played one on TV, but I can say JOHN KERRY IS THE ANTI-CHRIST. Who else could say and do what he wants and not be held accountable. Wait, that describes just about all the top democrates. If the horns fit.

OK, but does it work in reverse: can he get out of there before actually leaving? For this latter capacity would give him perfect alibi and deniability for every situation.

Cambodia.... California.... it's easy to see how someone could confuse the two.

Did anyone see Kerry get the boxing gloves in Philly? I'd LOVE to see him put them on and step into the ring with Dubya. Still laughing about his picture with the football and his girlie toss at the Bosox game.

As usual, Kerry was full of crap. By 1968 "our generation" had long abandoned King for the rhetoric of Malcom X and the Panthers- leaving only older, religious blacks following King's "outdated" ideals. And Bobby Kennedy supported the war until it became more advantageous to co-opt Eugene McCarthy's anti- war platform for a presidential run. Stalinist revisionism, indeed.

"John Kerry "has a dream"

Yeah, he dreamed he had a lovely and gracious wife like Laura Bush. Then he woke up with his nose in TeRAYZAs armpit.

John Kerry arrived in Viet Nam in November 1968.

Sorry, but you are mistaken. He did TWO tours, remember?
The first one was a coastal support ship. That was in early 1968.

He could be telling the truth this time.

I know, I know. But he could be right.

In the words of Ted Kennedy:

"LIE AFTER LIE AFTER LIE AFTER LIE"

or in the words of that retard Frankin...

"Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them"

It is really true that Democrats lie and then call Republicans liars, they steal and call Republicans thieves, they are Fat(literally)Cat millionairs and call Republicans Fat Cat millionaires

It is just amazing to watch!

Saw this on Britt Hume's show. He said according to the information on the Kerry web site he was not in Viet Nam.
