One thing that needs to happen with the fallout of Senator Kerry's remarks against our Military Personnel is for the Senate Leadership to Strip him of his position on the Armed Forces Committee. It is unconscienable that someone who made these remarks is allowed to be anywhere near Military Decision making and we need to send Senator Frist and all our Senators a message to remove him from this committee.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

If this is the case, then we need to hang Kerry's insults squarely around Casey's shoulders to help out our man Rick in Pennsylvania.

[ichabod1]

Weird. I know he was in those hearings.

[Darkwolf377]

I should have added: "Endangered"

[RGSpincich]

Wait, isn't he on the Judiciary Committee?

That was Kennedy flapin' his jowls.

Senators who are not on a particular committee can still 1) testify before that committee or 2) be invited to sit on the panel as a courtesy of the chairman.

He should resign from the Senate. He should renounce his citizenship and move to France where there is some respect for lying cowards.

Perhaps there should be a requirement that if you are going to be on the Armed Forces Committee you should actually like the armed forces.

Foley was shown the door within hours of his e mails becoming known.
If the Democrats really wanted to end this scandal- they would do the same with Kerry.
The only appropriate course of action is for Kerry to resign.

[TET1968]

Anyone on this list who does not demand that Kerry apologize to our troops and their families, should resign before this week ends.

I had thought Kerry was on the Armed Services Committee too but was told yesterday that he is NOT.

[mak5]

In a story published today in The Philadelphia Inquirer, Mr. Casey said it appeared Mr. Kerry "botched a joke."

"That's what he said, and I take him at his word," Mr. Casey said. "He served in combat. Last time I checked, the president and the vice president did not. The White House and the Santorum forces should get to work on dealing with the real problems in Iraq."

[newconhere]

Casey is an ass.

[RichInOC]

Should be, but that's ultimately the Democratic caucus' call to make. In other words, I wouldn't hold my breath.

[river rat]

With Kerry and Kennedy -- it's easy to confuse those two turds..

That's why the state is known as Massoftwoshits.

Casey came out in support of Kerry's comments yesterday.

Thank you God, may it be a humbling experience for him, too!

This is a golden opportunity for Santorum to start sticking up for not only the military but the blue-collar and white-collar workers who didn't go to college and yet are called stupid by the likes of Kerry and Casey.

Some people just do not have the money to go to college. It is not a reflection on their intelligence level. Time to shine the light of truth on these two elitist bimbos.

[Young Werther]

As a World Class Military TRAITOR he should be persecuted, (usage intended) to the fullest extent of the law.

There isn't a hole deep enough at Leavenworth for this criminal but in all generosity I will loan him a pick and shovel!

[xarmydog]

sKerry serving on the POW-MIA panel was a travesty in itself.He believed then about our fine service people as he does now.If todays generation knew now what transpired then,they may have a totally different take on the man.Methinks it would not bode well for him.

[vetvetdoug]

Have you seen the current American Legion Magazine? Hillary Clinton has an entire page telling veterans why they should vote Democrat in the next election. This is the first time I chunked my Legion Magazine in the trash bin right away.

[river rat]

Sorry - no I haven't seen that -- thankfully.

I never officially joined any of the veteran organizations..
My first few visits were depressing and not useful - so I quit going..
