There are those who are already so entrenched in their hatred of Kerry, that no official Navy records, no verified eye-witness testimony, no facts will every cause them to re-evaluate their point of view. However, I am assured that there are many who, regardless of their political background, are interested the facts and see knowledge as an evolutionary process, and who take the time to research their opinions and speak from a foundation of fact. It clearly is not necessary to like John Kerry, or agree with his record as a Senator, but it seems to me that a vicious attack on any man's integrity and honor deserves to be based on something other than lies and distortions. Well, here are some facts based on the official Navy record, Navy messages, the Navy archives, and the statements of witnesses who were really there.

Everyone does typos from time to time, but when you are supposed to be making a big political overture, at least read what you are going to be posting.
(It is an established historical fact that the American military as well as civilian intelligence were operating covertly in Cambodia years prior to the secret bombing campaign and the public incursion. SOG -- the Studies & Operations Group -- was a joint command that undertook secret missions inside Cambodia beginning not later than 1967, according to the book “Sideshow,” a leading historical work on the war in Cambodia.)
Command of all cross-border operations was under the US Army, Commander of MACV-SOG during that time. It was also well established that all cross border insertions into Cambodia and Laos were by helocopter, not boats, as boats had been discarded as an insertion vehicle in the mid 1960s.
If the Admiral had known about such operations, he is now no longer under any known secrecy prohibitions and should tell what he knows.
If Kerry had skippered a boat into Cambodia, he would have been under operational control of Command and Control South (CCS), a unit of MACVSOG. His boat, and all weapons would have had all identification removed. He would have required a top secret clearance. He would have known exactly what his mission was. Where did he go? What troops did he insert? What was their mission? When did he extract the troops? How did he receive his orders? Who did he report to during the mission?
I was there during that time. I doubt it!
Heck, even George McGovern was a war hero.
Ezekiel 3:20 Again, When a righteous man doth turn from his righteousness, and commit iniquity, and I lay a stumbling-block before him, he shall die: because thou hast not given him warning, he shall die in his sin, and his righteousness which he hath done shall not be remembered; but his blood will I require at thine hand.
Ezekiel 18:24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die.
Fergit it, Turdbucket, we ain't gonna make him C.I.C.,,,case closed.
I assume you're talking about the Fake veteran's group that Kerry helped start (Fake because apparently several of the folks testifying in front of Congress claiming to be vets weren't)
If I've got my facts straight - Kerry claimed that he quit the group when the discussions went the way your mentioning, i.e. talking about assassinating US senatores.
I Googled Wade Sanders, only to be nauseated by all the vicious anti-military cr*p he is peddling: every hair-brained ultra-left theme can be found.
I'm not interested in the actions of Lt. Kerry, UNSR. They are irrelevant. I'm interested in the actions of Senator Kerry (D-MA). And those actions are so thoroughly dishonest, dishonourable,and disgusting that I cannot respect him even in the slightest.
Looks like some Freepers have already started dissing this article on Military.com. Right after the turkeys opinion tripe, the site has a link to discussion of the article. Most comments read like Freeper input! :)
One of Rush's callers pointed out that Lee Harvey Oswald was a Marine... just like Murta was.
Thanks for the tip.
He has been placed at the meeting. My info is that it was at that meeting where he resigned his leadership position. I presume that he voted no, but he the duty to report the conspiracy to the FBI.
I cannot believe this idiot would run again
Would he also say that about Tim McVeigh? Didn't he receive a medal?
It must also be noted that Kerry initially LIED about the date of his supposed resignation from the VVAW. Until he was forced to fess up to his attendance at the Kansas City "Assassination" meeting, Kerry (and his campaign) were peddling the outright LIE that Kerry recalled resigning from VVAW in a St. Louis VVAW meeting in July, 1971.
His campaign was FORCED to acknowledge Kerry's fraudulent "memory" when FBI surveillance files (and, subsequently, eyewitnesses from within the VVAW itself) placed him at the meeting of the VVAW conspirators.
Ironically (if my memory serves me correctly), the FBI "Gotcha" was served up by Gerald? Nicosia, a Kerry supporter who had been doing pro-Kerry research when he stumbled into the FBI revelation. As I also recall, Nicosia was stunned by the information he had discovered.
Apparently not so Mr. Sanders or the MSM who give wide latitude to associating with assassination conspirators and documented, outright LIARS like Kerry.
