"One scenario would be that a large percentage of the military would simply get out at the end of their service obligation. John Kerry is trying to attract 40,000 more troops to sign on to the military. Who will fight for an anti-war activist who damaged his reputation and the reputation of thousands of war veterans all around the United States? Who would fight for a man that gave the enemy in 1971 for free what many POW’s suffered and died to protect? What happens then? "
Well..I can tell you from my small corner as an Army Mom. If Bush is re-elected I KNOW all the men in my son's platoon will re-up. If Kerry wins they won't. Period. I know some soldiers who wanted the war fought differently- who disagreed with some of the decisions made in the Pentagon- but to a man- they will vote for Bush.
Ya know, this is a GREAT point! He votes for the war, but against funding the war because he thinks it's a mistake driven by lies - That's what he has indicated. If this is the case, why wouldn't he just bring home the troops and let Iraq go in the hell hole of history as failed since they are about 10% of a coalition he deems insignificant.
Almost as bad as his conduct in the 1970s has been his recent conduct in his campaign. He - along with other leading Dems - is causing more deaths in Iraq. The terrorists are merely holding on, hoping that he gets elected, knowing that they will get a 'deal' of some sort from him. One could extrapolate that his conduct has been treasonous. But JFK and Ted Kennedy and Al Gore and Jimmy Carter are in for a big surprise in two weeks: the end of the Democratic Party as a national political force!
John Kerry doesn't want anyone to follow him. He just wants us to join him in following the UN.
Sheep to slaughter.
John Kerry CANNOT lead America's military to victory in Iraq, nor lead the War Against Radical Islam, because:
1. Kerry believes the war is a mistake;
2. Kerry wants America to lose.
Recently, my son-in-law was home from Iraq for a 15 day leave. He managed to get the leave so that he could be here for his daughters birth. He says, that he is one among many, who will not die with a traitor as CIC.
He was wearing wraps on his feet because he screwed them up over there. He could get out on a medical in about a heartbeat, but he believes in what he has been doing and wants to help his buddies survive. He's a Sergeant for a Scout team. If kerry were to win the election, I suspect that he and his buddies will be on their way home just as fast as they can get through the paperwork.
Thank you so much. This is the heart of the problem currently. If anyone knows how to "force" the pro-Kerry national media to ask these questions, then they know something that we don't - apparently. The American people deserve answers to all of these big questions, starting with why Kerry will not sign the 180 standard release form to show us exactly what went on "behind closed doors" in the 25+ years since he receive some kind of a discharge. . . and that's only the first of dozens of questions the media needs to ask him. Why didn't Charlie Gibson, Gwen Ifell or Bob Schieffer ask Kerry a single one of the most important, revealing questions?
Who Will Follow John Kerry?
BRAIN DEAD MORONS!!
Something like this?
We are the most powerful nation in the world because we fight Nobel causes and we have the military strength to protect ourselves from those that would do us harm.
Which country has this military?
709,000 Reguar (active duty) personnel.
293,000 Reserve military personnel.
8 Standing army divisions.
20 Air Force and Navy air wings with 2,000 combat aircraft.
232 Strategic bombers.
19 Strategic ballistic missile submarines with 3,114 nuclear warheads on 232 missiles.
500 ICBMs with 1,950 warheads.
4 Aircraft carriers, 121 surface ships, and all the support bases, shipyards and logistical assets.
These are United States military forces eliminated during Bill Clinton’s administration.
John Kerry voted 100% to support this eliminations!!
There's more all of us can do to defeat Kerry! Actions speak louder than words.
See the highly regarded conservative website The Federalist http://patriotpetitions.us/kerry/. They have a petition all of us can sign - 178110 signers so far.
Petition to Indict and Disqualify John Kerry from National Office
The petition will be sent to the Senate President , Senate Majority Leader and Attorney General after the election.
"Though John Kerry has an extensive and well-documented record of anti-American activities over the past three decades, it is his acts of treason in 1970-71 that are the subject of this petition for indictment. Our appeal notes both Kerry's violations of the UCMJ (Article 104 part 904) and U.S. Code (18 USC Sec. 2381 and 18 USC Sec. 953), and calls for his disqualification for public office in accordance with the Constitution's Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3, which states: "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President ... having previously taken an oath ... to support the Constitution of the United States, [who has] engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."
"Why prosecute John Kerry now? In October 2003, Mr. Kerry chose to make his Vietnam war record the centerpiece of his campaign for the presidency; this has been especially true since his primary victory in March 2004. In response, more than 165,000 signatories of the above-referenced petition for indictment have made his war record the centerpiece of their campaign to disqualify Kerry from public office. We understand that no action is likely to be taken on this petition until after the 02 November election. Be it known, however, that on 03 November, we will seek full recourse in an effort to have John Kerry prosecuted for acts of treason and disqualified from any future campaign for any national office. We are thus committed to holding Mr. Kerry accountable for his actions, as there is no statute of limitations for acts of treason."
There is more background at their site.
Send the petition to as many as possible and have them do likewise! This might open the eyes of some.
