In defense of my brother John
August 28, 2004
MY BROTHER, John Kerry, decided to volunteer to put his life on the line to serve his country in Vietnam. A lot of guys dodged service, but not my brother John. As Bill Clinton pointed out not long ago, when push came to shove, a lot of young men found other alternatives, but not my brother John. He volunteered for service and he went to Vietnam, and by every official US Navy account, he acquitted himself heroically. I watched my brother put his life on the line in service to our country as so many sisters and brothers, parents, and other family members are doing today with loved ones in Iraq and Afghanistan and elsewhere. I am really mad that anyone dares question any soldier's service, particularly my brother's outstanding record in Vietnam.

Timed perfectly to the re-emergence of the "Bush was AWOL" story! Amazing how transparent they are...
AFTER his sorry *ss was told that he couldn't study abroad!
yep... don't you just sense the desperation on the part of the Rats?
What the hell do they have to run on without the "war hero" status?
Daughters, Triple Amputee, War Widow, Sister.
What next?
Isn't this the sister that introduced Kerry to the counter-culture?.....
She's an ex-pat idiot I think. Does she even live here?
?????
I thought the democrats were all about pushing the envelope of dissent? Thats the last place I thought I would hear someone talking about 'how dare you question ___________' ANYTHING. Because I thought it was their charter as uberpointy headed liberals to question EVERYTHING. Except of course, ANY soldiers service. And except if that persons initials begin with George W. Bush and then it's okay to question a soldiers service.
hypocricy must have been an ancient democrat
He can always brag about his wind surfing and snow boarding.
I DON'T FALL DOWN!
;-)
no jokes.

Of course you would say that, you are his brother and blind to his bad side that you don't want to see or even listen to. How can you refute so many credible servicemen coming out with the truth, this is the character of a man that's running for President we're talking about here. Sorry but I cant blame these men, your brother made some pretty horrendous actuations about them when he came home, not Presidential material, sorry.
Where does his dufus sister live? It ain't America.
Will BC Elect John Kerry?
... Diana Kerry lived abroad for many years, teaching at schools in Iran, Paris, Bangkok
and ... She now lives in Surrey, and teaches at a day care centre in Vancouver ...

Kerry certainly had no problem "questioning the service" of the Vets whom he accused of war crimes... the lying hypocritical sack of BLEEP.
Bump!
(I didn't catch and double posted. Sorry.)
And I'm really really mad too, at this insult to my intelligence. Kerry's sister didn't write this letter, for heaven's sake! It's a joke to think she gives a rip about "any soldier", much less have the ability to list out Kerry's political talking points in boiler plate fashion.
Can anyone imagine George Bush using his sister in this cynical, self-serving way?
Considering Kerry's childish antics, I'd say a purple dinosaur.
