The first documentary evidence that Vietnamese communists were directly steering John Kerry's antiwar group Vietnam Veterans Against the War has been discovered in a U.S. archive, according to a researcher who spoke with WorldNetDaily.
One freshly unearthed document, captured by the U.S. from Vietnamese communists in 1971, indicates the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese delegations to the Paris peace talks that year were used as the communications link to direct the activities of Kerry and other antiwar activists who attended.
Kerry insists he attended the talks only because he happened to be in France on his honeymoon and maintains he met with both sides. But previously revealed records indicate the future senator made two, and possibly three, trips to Paris to meet with Vietcong leader Madame Binh then promote her plan's demand for U.S. surrender.

"Smoking gun?" "October Surprise?" Nothing that will shake the Michael Moore Bush-hating Left. It might give pause to swing voters if they knew about it. Don't expect it to be mentioned in the mainstream media. They never got around to covering the Swifties.
the area code looks like 806 to me.

A friend of mine didn't like me quoting Lynne Cheney, but I repeat: "This is Not a Good Man."

See, among others, page 25 (top):
"... That on April Four, One Nine Seven Two, a representative of the North Vietnamese government at the Paris peace talks telephoned the "movement" in the United States to be ready to take action, presumably demonstrations, to counter expected escalation of bombing by American air forces in South Vietnam as a result of the increased military action of north Vietnamese forces in Quang Tri province, South Vietnam."
I would chip in to see you spit a little beechnut in that dudes eye.
I read it. Rings exactly true today! "losers of the world...UNITE"
Between this story and the issue of sKerry collecting campaign contributions from KNOWN KLA members I am REALLY not happy with the traitor...
But it's from World Net Daily so this buck is going to stop here. Nobody is going to pick this up and run with it.
I will say it.
All one need do is read all of his comments from then and it will leave no doubt in your mind.
"Here's the direct link to the WinterSoldier.com article.."
Hate is not a strong enough word for how I feel about traitor Kerry, and what he did to my father and all the rest of our Vietnam Veterans who served with HONOR! Rot in your commie hell Kerry!!
FYI, here is the text of Kerry's wedding announcement in the NY Times (text reproduced from copy made of microfilm at public library)
The New York Times, Sunday, May 24, 1970, p. 78
John Kerry Weds Miss Julia Thorne
Special to the New York TimesBAY SHORE, L. I., May 23 -- Miss Julia Stimson Thorne, whose ancestors helped to shape the American Republic in its early days, and John Forbes Kerry, who wants to help steer it back from what he considers a wayward course, were married here this afternoon at the 200 acre Thorne family estate.
Some 250 guests attended the ceremony amid the flowering dogwood, tulips, lilacs, azaleas and rhododendron of the Umberto Innocenti-designed gardens overlooking the Great South Bay. Msgr. Eugene V. Clark of St. Patrick's Cathedral performed the ceremony, assisted by the bride's stepgrandfather, the Rev. Charles Leslie Glenn, assistant dean of the Episcopal Cathedral of S. S. Peter and Paul (National Cathedral).
The bride wore a cream-colored wedding gown, first worn two centuries ago in the wedding of her ancestors, Catherine Peartree-Smith and Elias Boudinot 4th, who served as president of the Continental Congress under the Articles of Confederation. Alexander Hamilton was best man at that wedding and among those present was George Washington.
Whether today's wedding becomes a similar footnote to history may depend on the bridegroom, a graduate of Yale and a veteran of the Vietnam war, who is considering running for Congress from his native Massachusetts.
Mr. Kerry, who criticized the fundamentals of American foreign 'policy as class orator at the 1966 Yale graduation exercises, said he joined the Navy and went to Vietnam because he wanted to study that policy first hand.
There, he earned the Silver Star, the Bronze Star, the Combat Action Ribbon and three Purple Hearts as the commander of a patrol boat on the rivers of the Mekong Delta.
He recently discussed his conclusions over network television when he offered views opposing Herbert Klein, the Nixon Administration's director of communications, on the Dick Cavett Show.
Following the customs of Italy, where the bride has made her home, the couple had witnesses instead of honor attendants and a best man. The bride's witnesses were her brother, Landon. Ketchum Thorne 3d, and Count Guiseppe Cigala-Fulgosi; and the bridegroom's were his brother, Cameron Forbes Kerry, and the bride's brother, David Hoadley Thorne, a Yale classmate, who introduced the couple during a Long Island visit several years ago.
Mrs. Kerry is the daughter of Mrs. Alice Barry Thorne of Rome, and Mr. Thorne Jr., a former minister of economics to Italy and; the Benelux countries, who published The Rome Daily American. A former banker in New York, he now manages the family's investments from a Wall Street office.
The bride is a granddaughter of Mrs. Thorne, who owns the estate, and the late Mr. Thorne, a utilities underwriter and banker, who was a managing partner and helmsman of the Whirlwind and unsuccessful America's Cup contender in 1930.
The bridegroom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Kerry of Groton, Mass., where his father, a retired Foreign Service officer, is a lawyer. He is the grandson of Mrs. James Grant Forbes of St. Briac, France, and the late Mr. Forbes, an international lawyer and banker in Boston, London and Paris.
Mrs. Kerry, who, was a member of the Junior Assemblies in 1962, was graduated from Foxcroft and attended the New York School of Interior Design. Her husband was graduated from St. Paul's. After a wedding trip to Jamaica, the couple will live in Massachusetts.

I think I plugged in "discharge" in the search box on the latest posts page. It was the first article ;^)

Rush might.
Dems will turn this into a positive;
"Vote Kerry. He's Hanoing"
That was the hue and cry in early August when the Swiftees began their ad campaign.
I Emailed the article to all the people in my address book who might have a persuadable mind.
