"I'm a High School student and have had many debates with classmates about John Kerry's military experiences. I was wondering if you could tell me a way to get them to understand that Kerry was not a brave and valiant soldier, without giving a long winded speech which they will blow off without a second thought".


Honestly, I don't know that you can. There are two types of people.... Those who can see truth and those who can't. I firmly believe it is a mindset that you are born with or at least aquire very early in life. I have tried to pursuade liberals and I am telling you it is a total waste of time.

If the media wasn't withholding all this stuff on Kerry, he'd have been convicted of war crimes a lot earlier. But the media has been in the pocket of the left since the late 60's.
Treason, war crimes, lying under oath, giving false testimony in a hearing that he knew would take action of some sort based on his false testimony, etc. It's beginning to look like the guy woiuldn't know the truth if it smacked him in hte face. Wonder what life at home os like with a guy like this?

That's easy. Ask them if they don't smell something fishy about a guy who got three purple hearts in as many months of actual combat duty but never spent one day in the hospital for injuries.

Kerry was collecting purple hearts as fast as he could to get the hell out of Vietnam. Most of those he served with were happy to see him go.

Where will this documentary be shown?

I don't know. I have heard about it on Hannity. I watched this piece this morning on CBN 700 Club. I don't know if it will be at theatres or TV or out on DVD/VHS???

It's payback time for the Vets. Now it's the POW's turn.

They ignored the Swift Boat Vets, then sent out lawyers and hit teams to lie, slander, smear and ruin their lives.

They are either going to run out of lawyers or hit men to smear all the POWs. Plus, a "he said, they said" with his brother Swifties can be argued. That tactic will not fly trying to smear the POWs. That would be holding a grenade and pulling the pin and not letting go.

Just point out that he left his command voluntarily and ask them how many other military leaders that they know of have done the same.

I believe Viagra has also stiffened Doles spine.

Skerry apologist on FNC just said that the threat of a lawsuit is what it took to get these most recent docs and SKerry wouldn't make them sue him.

I watched these awhile back they are heart-wrenching in a brave way and infuriating because of SKerry and VVAW.

And when Kemp was nominated as his VP I knew that the fireworks were gonna start. I figured Dole could act "presidential" while Kemp hammered away at willie, his second in command and algore.

Remember the "football in hand, and going for the touchdown".I thought for sure Kemp was gonna go on the warpath. Then kemp pretty much hiked his skirt, bent over and dropped his panties. It was as if Dole/Kemp did not want to win and were just going for a ride.

I still "despise" kemp for disappearing.

Warner added, "I think it showed incredibly bad judgment to have made these statements, knowing that it was going to put us at risk. Or it showed callous indifference to our fate."

Both, and more.

Having heard the Kerry's voice on the tape, several times, I detected his pleasure and smug triumphant tone.
