AP Uses Fake SEAL to Back Kerry, Slam Bush

AP Uses Fake SEAL to Back Kerry, Slam Bush

Authentic or not, Bush memos no big deal to retired guardsmen

U.S. Servicemen React to Bush Guard Memos (spreading the lie)

Allegations of suspect conduct during the Vietnam war also have been leveled at John Kerry, who won three Purple Hearts, a Silver Star and a Bronze Star in Vietnam.

A group sponsoring television ads challenging his wartime record contends Kerry's own gunfire caused the wound that brought his first Purple Heart. Navy records and other veterans do not support the charge.

Ahmad Majied of Albany (GA) says the latest allegations about Bush's military record are more troubling to him than allegations about service honors leveled at Democratic challenger Kerry.

Majied, a Democrat from Albany who served 30 years in the Navy, including five years as a SEAL in Vietnam, said the memos support his belief that Bush was a "playboy" during his service years.

"He had enough money to get what he wanted," Majied said. "I think his main concern was not to go to Southeast Asia. I bet he never dreamed it would come back to haunt him."

So Criminal Number 18F checked him out. Here's the reply from "authentiseal."

NOT A SEAL

Thanks for checking with us - we greatly appreciate your interest in upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams, and your search for the TRUTH. If the name you provided was "spelled accurately", we do NOT have a listing for anyone named "Majied" in our entire database of slightly more than 10,000 names. Unless he has undertaken the unlikely action of a full legal name change since his claimed service with the SEAL Teams, I can state conclusively that the man NEVER completed SEAL training, and thus he is not now, nor was he ever a Navy SEAL. While there are other training steps that must be completed on the path to becoming a SEAL, BUD/S training is the first and most vital, and that training course is totally unclassified. Without having first completed BUD/S training, a man cannot go on to become a SEAL. There are definitely secret SEAL missions, but despite anything the man might have said, there are NO secret SEALs. If you choose to confront the man regarding his fraudulent SEAL claims, please show him this email message and invite him to contact me - a real SEAL - directly by email with information that will support his claims. I'd enjoy hearing his stories first hand, but I've extended this offer to literally thousands of individuals over the last three years, and in all that time I've received only a scant handful of replies, so I don't really expect to hear from him either.

Again, please visit our web page www.authentiseal.org/realitycheck.htm for some very specific information related to the realities of SEAL training, SEAL duties, and the claims most often made by SEAL imposters.

Thank you again for your assistance in upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams.

Respectfully, Gregory Platt

Have any of you seen the ad about the woman stockborker who claims she is a Republican and will vote for Kerry?

You can't miss it. She is as boring as hell and looks like a lesbo queen and typical RAT voter.

They can drag anybody out they want and claim they are a Navy Seal or Republcian voting for Kerry. So what. It is so easy to fake this that it is laughable. After all, they used fake memos at CBS.

What is important is Kerry's history, and he was a radical extremist in college, in Vietnam, and after Vietnam, and he certainly was in his 20 anti-American years in the Senate.

Fake Purple Hearts. Fake Navy Seals. Fake RAT lesbo queens in Republican disguise. Fake CBS memos.

What counterfeit crap is next from the Kerry camp?

Is it just I, or doesn't "Ahmad Majied" sound Arabic or an Islam-derived name? I can't figure out why this bothers me.

Another example of sloppy, stupid reporting. If you're too lazy to check someone's background, you write,"Majied, a Democrat from Albany who SAYS HE served 30 years in the Navy, including five years as a SEAL in Vietnam..." and you're off the hook if the guy's bogus.

Not only amateurs, but amateurs in jammies, according to the ex-CBS snob on Fox last week. :)

Good work, Criminal Number 18F!

It might be a good idea to have Mr. Platt check the different spellings. If he indeed is a fake, we should make sure that we checked some alternate spelling.

Good work! It's worth remembeing that John Kerry's right-hand man at VVAW, Al Hubbard, once claimed to be a decorated Air Force captain until NBC got the goods on him and forced him to admit on the Today show that he'd lied and was a staff sergeant with "no record of any service in Vietnam".

Back then Kerry defended him, saying the lie was "understandable". Wonder if he'll have a comment on this fake Seal?

So, now we know what the MSM Seal of Approval is worth.

We also see that AP is officially part of Hillary's half-vast, left-wing conspiracy.

The precursor of the SeALs have been around since when, late 40's, early 50's? When did BUD/S start?

I guess I'm thinking that it would have taken someone or some people on the original teams to start the BUD/S training. Is that correct or not? Thus, the original SeALs (if they were called that then) didn't go through BUD/S, right?

I also put a query in yesterday about this guy, and received the same reply very late last night. Just checked my e-mail. Very, very quick response.

Thanks for posting.
