The world would be a much happier place without Kerry.

Well, well, well. FINALLY !! The old has-been, Pat Buchanan, is saying something for a change that does not make him look like a horse's patoot.

O'Neill's Swift Boat vets may be a little older, they may be a little grayer, but they still know how to fight for their country.

How great is that? Kerry always likes to steal peoples quotes and turn them around.

Kerry now snivels "make them stop"

Four of Kerry's five medals are now under question either for falsehoods or exaggerations. The more information that comes out, the less believable Kerry becomes.

Truth will win out.

Add Hanoi Jane Fonda to that list. She might have apologized in 1988 but to little to late. She has blood of US service men and women on her hands. Don't anyone forget it.

There is a saying and it is true: It is easy to remember the truth but impossible to remember a lie! Hanoi John Kerry is learning this the hard way.

Hundreds of thousands fled in leaky boats into the South China Sea where many were raped by Thai pirates and drowned. A million Cambodians were murdered in 1975 in one of the great holocausts of the 20th century. What does Kerry now think the Vietnam War was about, if not the freedom of these people from the barbarism of Asian Communism?

Very good point you don't see mentioned much.

...Now, it appears that it was John Kerry doing the lying...

Now? It seems the cornerstone of his entire campaign is a lie.

Other than O'Neill himself, Buchanan has command of the facts better than any other talking head I've seen on TV. It's clear he's actually read/studied the book, unlike others, and has a good memory for details and can keep the incidents straight.

How about in the words of Mark Twain, "If you speak the truth, you never have to remember what you've said."

I look at myself and wonder. What am I? Am I some nut that thinks that all that you have stated could be correct? Am I the only one that thinks Kerry should Drop his bid for the highest office of the land.After all that is stated about Kerry and Kerrys doings, I wonder why anyone sees him as a leader of this country. Am I a nut for thinking that? Am I the only one that thinks this way? Am I the only one that thinks Bush should stay in office?

You have posted this all over the place. For people that visit here your line may seem to infer some linkage between The Swift Vets and George Bush. There is no linkage. It may also be taken to infer that a lot of freepers might think that the Swift vets and George W. Bush are linked. I don't think most people here believe that.

I just wanted to point that out because there are a lot of people watching this site and I'd hate to see the MSM get the wrong idea.

No doubt about that. I'll watched Buchanan on Scarborough* and he really understands the details.

*Seems kind of wimpy to me.

No, it isn't you that's nuts.

Did you listen to Sean Hannity's show last night?

He did the "man in the street - Thursday", His help Flipper, jumped into a group of older teens, voting age and Sean would ask them questions. Out of 7 kids questioned, 7 would vote for Kerry. Believe this, one thought Kerry was "Jim Kearny" and Edwards was "Stu Ped", Sean had one convinced these same names were running. They all had one thing in common, they didn't know who John Kerry was, they didn't know his background, and they didn't care, they just wanted Bush out of office.

To me, that's scarey

That will the nimrod to smear good Men. Old Warriors don't take that crap sitting down.

Now you can understand how a rich Criminal Denomrat in Wisconsin could talk idiots off the street to go vote for Algore in 2000 for a pack of cigarettes.

RE: Swift boat vets and other vets are fighting for their Country again.

They won the battles in Vietnam. Now they are fighting where wars are won and lost, here in the U.S.

Ask Americans in 1971 to name someone connected to the Vietnam War and far too many would have named Lt. Calley.

No, in 1971 there was nothing shocking about Kerry's testimony.

Huge numbers of Americans got their "news" from the networks. The "anti-war" folks owned the networks. (Like today "anti-war" was not literally, "anti-war." Most of that crowd favored the peoples' struggle against the South Vietnamese oppressive running dogs of U.S. imperialism).

The U.S. military was worse than the reds, testified John Kerry.

Those are reasons North Vietnamese General Giap named the American press his "most valuable guerrilla" and praised the "anti-war" crowd.

Today the oppressed are in the Middle East. The imperialist is the same according to "anti-war" Americans.

There were sources of real news but you had to look beyond North Vietnamese Communists' "most trusted man in America."

The fighting where our wars are won or lost, here at home, is once again with us. We must not fail. It's for all the marbles this time.
