ANTI-KERRY VETS HANG TOUGH
Drudge Report ^ | Fri Aug 06 2004 13:37:12 ET

Posted on 08/06/2004 10:51:08 AM PDT by Brian Mosely

The following statement from Swift Boat Veterans for Truth concerns an article appearing in morning edition of the Boston Globe:

"Viet Vet Captain George Elliott describes an article appearing in today’s edition of the Boston Globe by Mike Kranish as extremely inaccurate and highly misstating his actual views. He reaffirms his statement in the current advertisement paid for by the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, Captain Elliott reaffirms his affidavit in support of that advertisement, and he reaffirms his request that he ad be played.

“Additional documentation will follow.

The article by Mr. Kranish is particularly surprising given page 102 of Mr. Kranish’s own book quoting John Kerry as acknowledging that he killed a single, wounded, fleeing Viet Cong soldier whom he was afraid would turn around.

“Swift Boat Veterans for Truth has more than 250 supporters who are revealing first hand, eyewitness accounts of numerous incidents concerning John Kerry’s military service record. The organization will continue to discuss much of what John Kerry has reported as fact concerning his four-month tour of duty in Vietnam.”

Awesome video. We had it on disk, but somehow lost it when we upgraded. DO please check out Grouchymedia.com. Awesome! And the best pictorial was the 2 french brothers, Jules & Gedeon Naudet in New York who actually made the documentary, 9/11. You can buy it on Amazon. It's called: "9/11". NEVER FORGET!

P.S. The left wing really doesn't care about 9/11. It's a footnote to them now. All they want is to warp the United States of America into their own twisted, socialist view. They continue to accuse the Republican party of that which they themselves are most guilty of. It makes me very very sad, and the Dems continue to remind me of why I am a Democrat no more. I will never tire, I will never give up.

I'll never forget the looks on faces of the Vietnam vets in the post Desert Storm parade in Lincoln, NE. They got the loudest and longest applause of any vet group, including the "greatest generation" WW-II guys. Maybe excepting the NE NG and ANG troops who brought up the rear, but who had actually deployed to the sandbox. Even the lone WW-I vet, who rode in a llmo, but did manage to to wave to the crowed, didn't get the intensity of cheering, that the Vietnam guys got. You talk about a bunch of "Shiite Eating Grins" :). It warmed the cockles of my heart, or more like the whole heart, to see it. They deserved better than they ever got, but that parade made a lot of them no longer reluctant to show the pride in who they were and what they'd done, as they had been for far too long. The only low point of that Parade was that Bob Kerrey spoke at the end of it. Of course that was before he'd caved to the 'toon and become his lap dog. In any event he avoided the subject of the war and concentrated on the warriors, of which he had of course been one. (Medal of Honor in fact).

Has anyone noticed that if you do a search for Swift Boat Kerry on Google, the Swift Boat Veterans against Kerry does not come up any more? It used to be first or second link, now nothing. Do you think Google perhaps is rooting for Kerry????

Dear fellow freeper Cheiftain

If you can attend a Kerry rally or townhall meeting and you want to ask a very tough question that will drive him crazy and have a much worse than any of Howard Dean moment please do the following:

Wear a Kerry button or carry a Kerry-Edwards sign so no one will suspect you, it is disgusting but you need to do this if you have to get close to him.

Tell his handlers that you want to ask him a question, and if they ask you what type of question, give them a very soft question that make Kerry feels good and where he can also bash President Bush. Of course this will be just a deception so that they allow you to ask a question.

When your turn comes, ask a very tough question that will make him very mad and let everyone sees that Kerry is not fit to be President.

One great question will be:

Senator Kerry you are making your service in Vietnam as a very important theme of your campaign. Can you please tell us was it your medals or someone else medals that you threw over the White House when you were protesting the war in Vietnam?

If he starts dancing around the question keep telling him "Senator Kerry, please answer the question and do not dance around it". This will drive further mad and angry. He may reach the point where the worst Howard Dean crazy moments will look very sane in comparison.

If you are able to do this to him, you may end his campaign.

Please my fellow freeper, go ahead and do it.

Please refer to the following post that will even further help you on this issue and it contains 12 very tough questions.

Sincerely;

jveritas

Michael Savage (I'm not crazy about him) interviewed the gunner who served ON Kerry's Swift Boat - Gardner. NonValueAdded put a transcript on that thread Here:

I used a photo I saw here on a FR as BG for Page #1 here; wait for page #2 and Kerry 1971 .mp3

The FReeper has a name about 6 miles long, sorry I cannot recall it but "Tonkin Gulf Yacht Club" comes to mind

John Kerry suddenly wants to be a proud Viet Nam Swiftboat Navy Officer again, boasting of his "2 tours in Viet Nam" and his medals.


Here above is a simple irrefutable contrast of Kerry's flip-flop on his past and present

Hopefully Barnes & Nobles and others will give it a chance. Their business is selling books, and if the advance sales on Amazon are an indication it will be a money maker.
I’d like to know how many copies Barnes & Nobles has ordered.

"If McCain is smart .. he'll stay out of this ."

No one has EVER accused McCain of being smart..

He and Kerry have some VERY suspect behavior in their dealings with the Vietnamese AFTER the war, involving our MIAs and human rights demands to protect our former allies we left behind in Vietnam..

I've heard that Kerry's relatives profited from his "cooperation" and "positions" as a Senator.

Semper Fi

I share your outrage, but you have to use that to motivate you to work to get Bush elected. That means informing voters, politely, that Kerry doesn't fit their and the country's interests.

Talk to dems.

Talk to people. Explain, rationally, how what Kerry did has slandered the military.
