WOW!
I have met Senator (Admiral) Denton.
He is a great American.
See the movie about his struggles, where he is played by Hal Holbrook, "When Hell Was in Session".
Former Senator from Alabama--A lot like Zell Miller.
His book "When Hell was in Session" is a must read.
Jeremiah Denton is one of the finest and bravest Americans ever to draw breath ... and the absolutely disgusting campaign Richard Shelby ran against him in 1986, when Shelby was a Democrat and defeated Adm. Denton, who was senator from Alabama at that time, is one of the reasons I have never and will never cast a vote for Shelby, regardless of whether he's a conservative or a Republican.
The young radicals (communists/socialists) of the 60’s have become college professors, teachers, lawyers, politicians, clergy, news and entertainment media and the business world elite. They are “educating” and recruiting our young for their replacements. They are taking OUR country away from us and saving it for the “Future owners”.
Folks, I remember the day that Sen. Denton came home from Vietnam as a released war prisoner. He came down the boarding stairs off the airplane, weakened and pale from his ordeal that John Kerry lengthened, that brought him home to his beloved United States of America. He kissed the ground he considered the great land of freedom. He knows the "traitor" John Kerry types very well. I suggest you heed the input of Mr. Denton. He has John Kerry's number through and through. John Kerry was and is a traitor that cause misery and death for American military perssonel that were fighting and imprisoned in North Vietnam. Mr. Kerry and his entire Democrat Party needs to be destroyed at the ballot box this November. This low life, John Kerry hates the United States!!!
Absolutely. I own a copy myself, and it just boggles the mind the torture and punishment the POWs endured from the North Vietnamese. Incredible courage and bravery.
He's my neighbor here in the Fowl River area of South Alabama.
Ditto that! A great book.
I thought I heard he has more to say about this. I found this older article when I googled him. Any word?
Wasn't Denton the gentleman who ewcwntly the California Dems wouldn't allow onto the chamber floor in Sacremento to receive an award?
A man to be respected, emulated and thanked profusely for his service to this country.
Bump
Maybe Admiral Denton could pull rank on McCain and have a heart to heart with him?
I believe that Admiral (and admirable) Jerrimiah Denton is slated to make a powerful statement within the next several days.
Don't know.
