Drip, drip, drip....You have to hand it to Kerry. He never disappoints. Another day, another treasonous revelation.

Kerry's got a new group of pajama-clad enemies to worry about these days.

Someone should ask Kerry, "If you get elected president (no chance in hell), what will you do to terrorists who seize US government property, like the Statue of Liberty?"

When he answers with his usual BS, the interviewer should spring a copy of the Winter Soldier on him and ask, "Like these terrorists.......you?"

And according to John O'Neill and Lt. Colonel Buzz Patterson, most of the misfits in that group were not, even, real veterans...

I remember seeing Kerry say somewhere that he thought he had voided any possibility of having a political career by participating in anti-war activities. I think he was right.

Doesn't say whether or not Kerry was there or we'd have seen this before.

As the post above suggests, asking Kerry about what his 'damn tough' stance might be on the possibility of terror attacks on national monuments is a pretty good idea.

It is remarkable how little news of this got to the outside population. This is the first and only word of the event I've seen to date. Where the hell were the Federal Marshals, arrests and charges??????

Well the Statue of Liberty- was a gift to the American people and when these VVAW commandos struck- they took all precautions- the White House actually consulted with France who was the rightful owner of this gift, back then to determine what to do. Nixon sought 'global consensus' before clearing Lady Liberty. I think the vets were successful to hoisting a banner which read; STOP THE BOMBING! STOP THE WAR! BRING OUR BROTHERS HOME NOW! Photo appeared on front page of the Stars and Stripes before vets cleared out non-violently and were arrested.
