John Kerry: Obama being 'swiftboated' August 17, 2012 | 4:43 pm

Paul Bedard Washington Secrets The Washington Examiner @SecretsBedard

Sen. John Kerry, the 2004 Democratic presidential candidate on Friday charged that critics are trying to "swiftboat" President Obama with false and "ridiculous" claims and that Mitt Romney is a foreign policy rookie who embarrassed himself during a recent trip to London.

In a letter to Obama's supporters, he railed on the charges Obama has been hit with, including those from the so-called "birthers."

The attacks, he said, "remind me all too well of the notorious 'Swift Boat' attacks I faced in the 2004 campaign." He was referencing devastating charges from fellow Vietnam War veterans questioning his service.

In the note, he also slapped Romney for being a foreign policy novice and potential presidential disaster. "Republicans have a candidate with absolutely no foreign policy experience, who thinks Russia is our 'number one geo-political foe' and who is advised by people who think -- and have repeatedly said -- the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia are countries that still exist. Romney's two major foreign policy speeches never even mentioned Al Qaeda once, and he's prone to stumbles when he steps onto the foreign policy stage. He can't even manage to visit London without causing an international incident!"

Below is Kerry's note:

John Kerry = proof that there are more horse’s asses than actual horses. Once a douche, always a douche.

Kerry must be talking about Obama. Who has the video of Obama toasting the Queen of England? Ha!

"And Obama’s foreign policy experience was...?"

Going to Pakistan at a time when Americans were forbidden to do so.

“’Swift Boat’ charges were true.”

Correct .. the charges were all true by men who served with Kerry.

And then there are those pesky reports he went to Russia where he attended the KGB Charm School for sleeper agents and moles.

I know, John-bo, people coming out with the truth is such a travesty. The govt. is supposed to be worshipped and those in power are supposed to be manufactured into celebrities. Go suck an egg, John.

Let’s not forget his other symptoms, though: his delusions of Irishness and his ketchup fetish.

It is amazing the kind of power the left have to redefine reality, history, and words, for the large bulk of our population and culture to embrace among other things easy to debunk lies.

Kerry’s going to be bitter about having the truth told about him until the day he dies.

I'm OK with that.

Yeah - I sure think that Kerry being swift-boated (actually he swiftboated himself) was a very good thing.

A similar thing couldn’t happen to a more deserving person than 0bama.

What a coincidence that Barry served on the Swiftboats in the Navy too.

Maybe ... Indonesian navy.

Get a new line, JFK. Everything isn’t about you, you freakin’ blueblood narcissist.

Now, now. He's only a blueblood by multiple marital transfusions.

Quite likely exacerbated by eating moldy golden raisins soaked in gin.
