Former POW 'Astonished' By Kerry's False Testimony Charging War Crimes
Col. George E. "Bud" Day is America's most highly decorated living veteran officer. He served in World War II, Korea and Vietnam, receiving more than 50 combat awards and the Congressional Medal of Honor.
What he wants now is to stop John Kerry from being elected President.
Day traveled from his home in Florida to Washington, D.C., last week to participate in the filming of two new ads by Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. In one of the spots, he directly addresses Kerry: "How can you expect our sons and daughters to follow you, when you condemned their fathers and grandfathers?"
In the early 1970s, when Kerry was meeting with America's Communist enemies in Paris and falsely claiming to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that U.S. forces in Vietnam were committing war crimes on a day-to-day basis, Day was a POW, languishing in a North Vietnamese prison.

I saw the ad....its very,very powerful!
all I can say to this is:
"It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have
learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first."
--- Ronald Reagan
My rule is, the flatter their voice the greater their heroism and truthfulness. That's how America used to be. These men are living reminders of our past.
I did too, online, at the swift boats site. I thought this interview got even more from hom.
BTTT
God no, these MSM come real close to treason themselves, all in the name of DMC
I ned to ask a real silly question.........what hisa bump and BTTT
sorry about that last, for some reason, after typing fast, it posted without going to the spell check. Server error or something.
"Bump" and "BTTT" are basically the same.
"Bump" means you're bumping up the article in the sequential list of comments on the main forum.
"BTTT" means "Bump To The Top".
Wnat to ignore this testimony, too, Mr. Koppel?
Bud Day was in the water watching the battle of MIDWAY was he not?
If he is in that last ad... WOW!!!!!!!!!!
The only problem to me is I can't understand why the country is this polarized regarding our security and patriotism.
We need a large large Bush win here...50 states!!!

Has anyone thought about how much time the MSM has put into the Abu Gharab prison scandal VS. the virtually NON-EXISTANT coverage of these POWs who were "really" tortured and had to listen to the words of Lt John F Kerry in Vietnam prisons?
I've learned more about politics and the MSM in the last year than I have in the preceeding 49 years of my life. It is beyond description how pissed off I am at the mainstream media of this country. It's an embarrassment to the free world for sure. Freedom, liberty, truth...? The SOBs should be put in jail!!!
How do you "bump to the top!"
You just did it!
Go look at the main news forum, http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/browse, after I post this.
My message will be near the top.

Benedict Arnold was different: a military hero for both sides in the same war. . .
In the end, Benedict Arnold's "moral failure lay not in his disenchantment with the American cause" for many other officers returned to civilian life disgusted with the decline in republican virtue and angry over their failure to win a guaranteed pension from Congress. Nor did his infamy stem from his transfer of allegiance to the British side, for other Patriots chose to become Loyalists, sometimes out of principle but just as often for personal gain. Arnold's perfidy lay in the abuse of his position of authority and trust: he would betray West Point and its garrison "and if necessary the entire American war effort" to secure his own success. His treason was not that of a principled man but that of a selfish one, and he never lived that down.
