Hi Snippy, I feel a bit better, but I'm not out yet. Hopefully, I should feel better tomorrow. It'll go away eventually, thanks for asking,

By the way, I just sent a E-mail to Sen John Kerry asking him if he was going to seek the endorsement of Jane Fonda in his run for the White House. I will let you know what he says if he replies.

My next e-mail to him will ask him to explain why that I heard his political stand was "To the left of Ted Kennedy and behind Barney Frank".

HANOI JOHN KERRY RECEIVES 97%
LIFETIME RATING FROM VIET CONG

In 1991, the United States Senate created the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs to examine the possibility that U.S. POW/MIAs might still be held by the Vietnamese. As chairman of the Select Committee, Kerry proved himself to be a masterful chameleon portraying to the public at large what appeared to be an unbiased approach to resolving the POW/MIA issue.

But, in reality, no one in the United States Senate pushed harder to bury the POW/MIA issue, the last obstacle preventing normalization of relations with Hanoi, than John Forbes Kerry.

In fact, his first act as chairman was to travel to Southeast Asia, where during a stopover in Bangkok, Thailand, he lectured the U.S. Chamber of Commerce there on the importance of lifting the trade embargo and normalizing relations with Vietnam.

During the entire life of the Senate Select Committee, Kerry never missed a chance to propaganderize and distort the facts in favor of Hanoi.

C. Stewart Forbes, Chief Executive Officer of Colliers International (Kerry's cousin), was awarded a contract worth billions designating Colliers International as the exclusive real estate agent representing Vietnam.

Thanks Phil.

FYI - Their site is down when I click on the link and I can't get the pic either. Is Kerry after them?

To the left of Ted Kennedy and behind Barney Frank".

Disturbing image ALERT!

And they're getting married in Howard Dean's state.

Probably just planted by the narcs to give Rock and Roll a bad name. ;-)

August 25, 1972 the Dead played six hours in UC stadium in Boulder for 35,000 fans.

It rained off and on, but the Dead played on.

At one point, four young men brought out two large baskets containing a plastic-bagged green agricultural product.

These men threw the packages into the crowd.

I have no idea what they contained, being far away with sixteen young men and women with water pistols filled with gin.

Actually if we start making the punishment fit the crime on a daily basis then it will no longer be unusual.

If Angleton could build a special cell to put Noskenko through 1400 days of hell, why do murderers get color tv?

Why not:

Is it safe?

The home site is U.S. VETERAN DISPATCH .

The Kerry site is Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry.

The Kerry site is occasionally taken down to add photos and commentary ("under construction").

I just went to both the home and Kerry sites and they came up, but then ComCast is fast and reliable.

Try this photo from the home site:

Pulling up both sites now, no problem.

Nasty tasteing? I think if I can survive Darksheare's coffee I can try this. I'll have to get the wife to pick up some ginger root. Wonder how hard that is to find.

Afternoon Light Speed.

The United States lost the will to win in Vietnam. Giap knew if he could win in the war of public opinion. People like Jane Fonda and John Kerry were valuable allies to Giap. The Communists were willing to take massive casualties and take as long as needed to win.

I remember the Ricky Nelson death. One of the last people I would have thought was a druggie.
