The stuff that happened in Viet Nam was the only thing the Swift Boat vets could offer firsthand testimony about, IIRC. That may be the reason for the emphasis. It seems pretty clear that Kerry’s discharge was other-than-honorable, since his honorable discharge was issued by Carter, long after Kerry’s service ended. But, it’s still speculation, as long as he won’t release his records.
No ma'am, it's NOT speculation. I was also in Viet Nam about the same time as Jean-Francois and know that the crap he spews is crap. I also can tell you first hand about the attitude Viet Nam vets faced when they came back thanks to the efforts of Fonda-Kerry.
Veterans weren't wanted in the private workplace and discrimination against Viet Nam vets was both rampant and accepted. Soldiers no more than 12 hours off the battlefields in Viet Nam were welcomed back to the US by people spitting on them. Do a little research and check out the anti-war, anti-military language used by the MSM at the time. Then, notice the subtle shift that started to occur in the 80s or 90s when, all of a sudden, being in Viet Nam was supposed to be an honorable and courageous thing. Crapola!! Kerry and the MSM make me ill!!
Don't try to pass off Kerry's lies, manipulations and distortions as mere "speculation"! The man is a pathological liar, fraud and traitor and the only credits he has to his entire sorry life is that he married well (rich widows) and has managed to keep dust from gathering on his otherwise mediocre and pointless senate seat.
