JOHN KERRY AGAIN SMEARS THE US ARMED FORCES--ONCE A TRAITOR ALWAYS A TRAITOR
12/05/05 | MikeA

Posted on 12/05/2005 6:54:18 PM PST by MikeA

John Kerry is at it again, smearing the honor of the US armed forces in Iraq by making outrageously inaccurate charges against the hard working men and women in Iraq doing their utmost to help the nation achieve victory there. Kerry said the following on Face the Nation on Sunday:

"And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the --of--the historical customs, religious customs. Whether you like it or not...Iraqis should be doing that."

Kerry acts like when our soldiers make a search of a home they do so just for grins. The only time a home is raided is when there is solid intelligence that there are terrorist suspects in the home. No one is treated brutally or "terrorized," but yes the raids are quick and intrusive, using the cover of night to keep the element of surprise and to prevent terrorist suspects from having too much lead-time to act. I guess Kerry doesn't want to disturb the sleep of terrorists so they can be alert and rested when they carry out murder against our troops in the morning.

The fact is, Kerry owes our forces in Iraq an apology for using reasonable and prudent search tactics against them all for his own political benefit by looking like the most "anti-war" candidate in the Democratic primary field for 08. It is unconscienable Kerry would make these remarks knowing full well that our forces are not out to victimize innocent Iraqis, but to get at the bad guys, all at a time our troops are making great strides in beating the bad guys and bringing democracy to Iraq.

Kerry's ugly remarks attacking our military in Iraq becomes even more galling when you read Joe Lieberman's November 28th Wall Street Journal piece praising the professionalism and honor of our forces in Iraq and the tremendous strides they're making their to beat the jihadist monsters.

But then slandering our troops is nothing new for the traitor Kerry. Remember these absolutely appalling charges made against our troops in Vietnam, all based on nothing Kerry actually witnessed (he admitted it was nothing he ever saw) and later proven largely to be bunk? Kerry smeared the reputation of Vietnam veterans when he said the following in testimony before Congress in 1970:

"They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan , shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country," Kerry testified.

Kerry's irresponsibility in continuing to accuse US troops of heinous acts all to serve his political ends have got to be called for what they are: enemy-emboldening sedition. This hack has no business in the US Senate making such incredibly intemperate and hyper-partisan remarks all in the service of his narrow political aims of attacking a president he's still frustrated he couldn't beat in 2004.

But then when you consider that Kerry seems to have a pattern of making false charges against the military, it begins to dawn on you that it's not so much Bush that Kerry hates, it's the US military he really despises--and this from a man who exploited his supposed military service as being his only real selling point to convince Americans to make him commander in chief of a military he clearly finds barbarous. Thank goodness Americans saw through his phoniness and sent him back to the Senate to do what he does best: being a trash-talking, bomb-throwing, back bencher, partisan extremist liar.

We should put every one of the Swiftboat Vets on Mt. Rushmore for the service they did their country.

I often wonder what drives this self-entitled arrogant human offal. The only theory I can think of that explains the facts as we know them is that he works for the Devil.

If good people don't speak plainly now, when should they speak, among the ruins?

"Does anybody have a transcript or video of John Kerry denouncing the UN PeaceKeeping Troops raping of small girls in Africa? Has he ever said anything about it at all?"

The French-looking Kerry? Criticize such an august international body? Why, if he did that, they might pull his 'One World Government' membership card.

Did you hear his smarmy apology he made after the commercial segment? Give me a break. I get so sick of these libs. saying what they truly feel in a moment of passion and then not having the courage of their sedition to own their beliefs and comments afterwards. I was equally amazed Hannity and O'Neill said nothing when he made those outrageous comments. I would have screamed him to shame.

I've laughed at Colmes for years. This time, he went too far. To equate American military personnel with terrorists is to be expected from Michael Moore, but this is over the line. I haven't been this angry in a long time.

How Hannity can appear with Comes after this is beyond me. I have emailed Fox, and Hannity, and Colmes. This should cause a firestorm, if it doesn't, I will be shocked. I am a regular watcher of the show, it's not like I don't know what to expect. This was beyond the pale, this was sedition.

Yes, I heard it right before I almost broke my remote. Colmes is not just a seditionist, he is a gutless seditionist. No apology is sufficient, HE MUST GO.

I BOYCOTT HANNITY AND COLMES.

Mark Simone of WABC radio in New York, has the best sound bytes of Kerry flip flopping all over the board. It's hysterical. Go to marksimone.com and click the link. Great stuff.

there is a line in place, believe it or not....
I refuse to cross..... I've reached that line...
I'll warn others with my words, and I'll fight
beside you against the enemy... I shall advance
as I have been advancing toward the sound of the
gunfire, but I'll only cross the line legally,
good men know when the line is to be crossed and
when the line is to stay in place......
for now the line has to stay in place, even though
the line become more bent, and sways with each passing
moment...but for the moment the line is in place...
if you feel the need to step across the line.......
be my guest....I'll be one of the first to pull you
back.

Now whether or not you care for what I wrote, really
doesn't matter to me.....but of this I am certain,
I'll not be led, nor will I follow to help violate
the rule of law. I shall differ.

You know, it's hard for normal Americans to understand someone like Kerry. Does he hope to gain political advantage with talk like this? Does he really think American soldiers are terrorist? ....Damn, whose side is he on, anyway?

Kerry did this same type of act thirty or so years ago and was allowed to get away with it.

perhaps Modok is correct good people will wind up
speaking from amongst the ruins.......there are so few
from our media and our politicians who can qualify as
good people...if it were the other way around and our
media and politicians were good people....we definately
would not be having this discussion.....

Ah, but within the framework of the American political system, these 'statesmen' are merely exercising their right as American citizens...

...to speak out and 'disagree with any administration' - Hillary Clinton

Only problem is, this is not simply some piece of domestic legislation we are arguing about, but rather life and death survival of our nation.

Hitlery does not equal "good people"

of course for the moment the way Congress is behaving I'm not certain a majority of "good people" are left in control up there

I apologize for my off-topic remarks about Alan Colmes on this thread. I never get this angry, and I didn't have a bad day, I just could not believe what I heard tonight.

As for Kerry, I have read "Unfit For Command" and I am quite familiar with his traitorous actions and words.

"......there are so few
from our media and our politicians who can qualify as
good people..."

I don't think so, I think good people are subverted and perverted by the culture of career bureaucrats in Washington. I know a few of those very well, and Washington is a strange place, and strange things happen to people when they work there.

Maybe people should be stronger, but they want to survive, and the power structure is very entrenched. Politicians come and go, but the career people stay and stay. I'm not making much sense, it would take a lot of writing to explain what I have seen in Washington. Be glad you don't have to operate there, my friends.
