" remember Christmas of 1968 sitting on a gunboat in Cambodia. I remember what is was like to be shot at by Vietnamese and Khmer Rouge and Cambodians, and have the President of the United States telling the American people that I was not there; The troops were not in Cambodia.

I have that memory which is seared--seared--in me, that says to me, before we send another generation into harm's way we have a responsibility in the U.S. Senate to go the last step, to make the best effort possible in order to avoid that conflict."


In this statement alone there are many lies:

He was not in Cambodia. Even if he was, it wasn't on Christmas of 1968. No Swift Boats were in Cambodia at any time. President Nixon was not in office on Christmas Day 1968. The Khmer Rouge were not a force to be reckoned with until 1972. He stated that the vietnamese and Cambodians were celebrating Christmas, but Vietnamese and Cambodians are Budhists or Hindus. They would not be celebrating Christmas.

This should tell everyone that this person, John F. Kerry is a habitual liar, and will say anything to sell his viewpoint even knowing that these lies will be found out in the future. He only thinks about the present moment and cares less about the consequences of his lies. That is why he chose a law-suit lawyer as his running mate. They are two peas in a pod. They only think of themselves and no one else. NO ONE ELSE!

True. I alluded to most of these points in the context of makring the larger point.

If I had to describe Kerry in 1 word: unprincipled.
