John Kerry's "Apocalypse Now" fantasy in Cambodia. Great scan of 1979 newpaper article.
1979 | boston herald

Posted by MeekOneGop:

John Kerry wrote his Review for "Apocalypse Now" on Oct 14, 1979 in the Boston Herald.

The key words in this scan are on page two--->

JOHN KERRY:
"On more than one occasion, I like Martin Sheen in "Apocalypse Now," took my patrol boat into Cambodia. In fact I remember spending Christmas Eve of 1968 five miles across the Cambodian border being shot at by our South Vietnamese allies who were drunk and celebrating Christmas. The absurdity of almost being killed by our own allies in a country in which President Nixon claimed there were no American troops was very real."

Coppola spent 16 months in Vietnam filming and lost 100 pounds....Kerry spent 4 months complaining and getting bandaids on his boo-boos.....

LOL!!! Quite an imagination - remember he got 3 purple hearts for his accomplishments, and if people don't find out soon enough, Kerry could win the elections.

His presidency would be even worse than Bill Clinton's, and I had not thought that possible.

Don't forget "I'm not going to run for the Senate" Hillary stands ready to fill in when F'n's campaign boat sinks. She'll just nudge smiley boy Edwards off to the side to make certain he remains VPINO.

"His presidency would be even worse than Bill Clinton's, and I had not thought that possible.'

Agreed. I also thought Gore would have been much worse had he been able to litigate his way into the oval office.

LOL! Thanks for the outstanding graphics, Phil. I need this for my tagline…

Yet Kerry was fifty miles from Cambodia, and Nixon was 27 days from presidency.

S.O.L. was the freeper with this, I had MeekoneGop help him re scanning and posting it.

When I first read and each time I have reread it (over a dozen times), I had and still have the same feeling that you posted:

"I don't know which is more disturbing -- Kerry's outright lie about taking his boat into Cambodia, or the way he got so overheated in his complaints about a freakin' movie."

Besides being a serial liar, Kerry is a lunatic as per his own words.
