1. Today is the 345th day since John Kerry promised to release his entire Navy record, including his 1972 Other Than Honorable Discharge and his alleged Official Letter of Reprimand for meeting with the enemy in 1971.
2. With all that free time on his hands, Kerry's minions continue with their campaign of personal destruction against the people who successfully informed the world of the senator's crimes in time to help defeat Kerry in 2004.
upon we vets
US vets....sorry- but grate, grate!
*and no, he doesn't have any honor, you just figuring that out??!!!!!
Please, be accurate: Liar yes, coward no...Kerry was never a coward.
These are mutually exclusive.
BTW - A leopard doesn't change his spots. Kerry never has had any honor.
>>>>>Resign, Mr. Kerry. Have you, at long last, no decency, Sir?<<<<<
John Kerry: "Do you want me to have decency or do you not want me to have decency?"
I have an idea, why don't we send Kerry a bunch of pre-addressed envolopes with postage on it, so Kerry has no excuse.
If he's so courageous then why doesn't he release his entire Navy record?
Are you serious, or did you forget the sarcasm tag?
Getting 3 Purple Hearts for paper cuts and then petitioning to go home isn't a sign of cowardice?
...If I had uttered the same statements as he did regarding Navy service, I wouldn't want it disclosed either (because I believe the 180 would definitely expose him to be the liar the poster said he was); but IN NO WAY is his reticence related to cowardice. Kerry earned the Silver Star Medal in Vietnam, something that the United States Navy does not give out gratuitously and which, to my understanding, was not disputed by the Swift Boat vets..
Faking some of the incidents, to get enough Purple Hearts to get him out of country can easily be construed as cowardly. On the other hand, true heroes (what Kerry wants you to think he is, but he isn't), like Ollie North actually turned down Purple Hearts for legitimate injuries, so he could stay with his troops...
Let's see.... He tried to dodge the draft, but he screwed that up; when he got on those swift boats, they were to just ferry people from here to there, but Adm. Zumwalt changed the mission to one of combat reconaissance or sumping. When there was an explosion in the water, he took off like a scared rabbit. But he did return to pull someone out of the water. In the Senate he won't commit to practically any stand, but more taxes and government control.
He doesn't sound like a brave person to me -- only somewhat unlucky in the Vietnam era.
There is nothing more harmful, IMHO, to a political movement (conservative or liberal) than unfounded rumor, slander or innuendo made against honorably discharged veterans who did their duty and served their country but who might be on the other side of the political persuasion with the establishment making the claim. Such was done to President Bush (CBS story), Ollie North (Time magazine article during Iran-Contra), OR John Kerry, Bob Kerry, John Murtha and Max Cleland. They all served honorably! click here
Bump! Keep the day-count going!
"unfounded rumor, slander or innuendo made against honorably discharged veterans who did their duty"
Sorry, but when his unit, including his entire chain of command tells us of his actions during the war, it carries a lot of weight.
>>>>>Resign, Mr. Kerry. Have you, at long last, no decency, Sir?<<<<<
John Kerry: "Do you want me to have decency or do you not want me to have decency?"
John Kerry: "I voted for decency before I voted against decency!".
John Kerry: "Decency is seared, SEARED into my memory."
What do you say to the Swift Boat Vets that have testified that he turned his boat and ran away from a firefight when and ambush occurred on the river.
He returned to pick up his crewman that had fallen overboard in Kerry's unexpected turn - only after enemy gunfire was neutralized by the other boats - the other boats that stayed and fought!
Your kidding with that link...right?
