"If you value the troops so much,"
Now that I have returned home, from "my weekly support of the troops",
that I have done every single week since Oct 2001, and often
times several times a week on base
I'll answer your questions.
I see you did not ask any of the other vets on this thread
what they thought like I asked you.
"Tell me how it will help any soldier anywhere to replace Kerry with
another brain dead Massachusetss pol."
JOHN O'NEILL Viet Nam Vet GETS IT
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1526505/posts "...To us, Mr. Kerry's comments meant that no one should do to Mr. Murtha
that which Mr. Kerry did to all of us and our fellow Vietnam veterans,
living and dead. Mr. Kerry's disgraceful comments on many occasions in 1971
(while we were locked in combat),
claiming falsely that we were "murdering" hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese
and committing rape and mayhem on a daily basis,
are a part of the public record for which he has never apologized.
This might be called "Kerrying" our soldiers..."
"Yes, indeed- John Kerry thinks it's 1971 all over again. Yesterday, on "Face the Nation"
John Kerry once again slams American troops- Check it out-
"And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going
into 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."
Here is the transcript for "Face the Nation"-
http://www.cbsnews.com/htdocs/pdf/face_120405.pdf You will find this statement at the bottom of page 4 and the top of page 5.
"The public, 48% of which voted for Kerry to be C-in-C, starts wondering what the heck we're doing."
Now think about the active duty troops who frequent Free Republic,
who cares what the 48% liberals think.
Please get your priorities straight.
hanoi kerry lost, plain and simple
"Tell me how all the folks who voted for Kerry
(and all those who voted for Bush
and didn't believe the Swiftees,
like about 10% of the electorate) will suddenly decide that he's Benedict Arnold."
Karl Rove KNOWS who really won the election.

"I asked you to cite the law that gives the SCOTUS jurisdiction. You have not."
You need to cite YOUR source that says the US Supreme Court does not have
jurisdiction over
U.S. Constitution Amendment 14 Sec 3 (1868)
Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress,
or elector of President and Vice President,
or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States,
or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath,
as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States,
or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer
of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States,
shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same,
or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.
But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

"Sure, you say it's the law of the land, but we have to "get a conviction"
so to speak and you won't say how we'd accomplish it."
The FBI has proof of his giving aid and comfort to the enemies

Kerry and Julia traveled to Paris, France and met with Madame Nguyen Thi Binh, the Foreign Minister of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of Vietnam (PRG), the political wing of the Vietcong, and other Viet Cong and Communist Vietnamese representatives to the Paris peace talks, a trip he now calls a "fact-finding" mission.

Finally a word of advice.
I am, and always have been, a Registered Independent Voter
I've made this known ever since I've been on FR
Remember it's Independents like me and Democrats like John O'Neill
and Zell Miller who helped the GOP pull the election
out of the fire.
My contributions will always go to
Free Republic AND other non partisan groups
before Republicans or Democrats ever sees a dime from me.
AND my votes in '06 and '08 will always go to
the best qualified candidate, regardless of
their party.
BTW : What other forums, on the internet,
were you campaiging for President Bush in '04?
I was on plenty of msn and yahoo groups
and on militay.com
