   KOHNBODIA CHRISTMAS 1968 AND I`M REALLY SENSITIVE |
"On more than one occasion, I like Martin Sheen in "Apocalypse Now," took my patrol boat into Cambodia"
Good grief. Walter Mitty was a rank amateur when compared to this nutjob. I gather alot of Kerry's fantasies run parallel to Martin Sheen's screen life, someone needs to tell him that Sheen is an ACTOR, he was never in the military and never actually faced hostile fire in combat. It was a MOVIE. Moreover, Martin Sheen is not, I repeat NOT, the current resident at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
BTW, if I get up the energy I might scan my AWARD WINNING comix parody of Apocalypse Now called Apocalyse Wow and post it here. However, someone out there should try to forward the MOVIE REVIEW over to Rush. (Hey, and I thought Algore was the only politico doing movie reviews).
I notice, reading Kerry's movie review, that he claimed that he went into Cambodia SEVERAL TIMES.
"...Coppola got carried away with his own trip. Scenes that had great potential were ruined because Coppola didn't know when to stop."I believe we call that sort of statement "projection."
Sir...I am not worthy to post on your thread. You are one badass Freeper.
Bump
nOW this IS A major BUMP!!
Thanks for posting this.
I was hoping someone would make it a thread since the first time Meekonegop was able scan it and post it. I don't have the skills to do it.
meekonegop, s.o.l., thanks to Dennis, this is now a thread forever on Free Republic.
Kerry will have this following him the rest of his miserable losing life.
Not only does he deny the switfties their real memories, because they take away from his franchise's value -- but he earlier denied Coppola's vision of the Viet Nam war. Because Pope Kerry didn't authorize it.
Kerry says that "On more than one occasion" he took his "patrol boat into Cambodia." Based on Navy and DoD records, it should be fairly easy to "show" when Kerry undertook each of these trips, for how long each lasted, who went with him, and for what purpose. Let's see the records.
And now we finally know on what real life character the acid popping member of the boat crew was based.

bttt
"..being shot at by our South Vietnamese allies who were drunk and celebrating Christmas."
I went and asked him if his country celebrated Christmas? He said no they did not. I then asked him if the Vietnamese did and he said no they did not.
I then told him what Kerry had said and as soon as I said Kerry's name he said that he doesn't beleive a word Kerry says.
ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASSION!!!!
Today's issue is about a his seared memory of Christmas in Cambodia. When were these other incursions??
Release your military records.
The Night Before Christmas (Cambodian Version)
Twas the night before Christmas and we were afloat
Somewhere in Cambodia in our little boat.
While the river was lightened by rockets red glare
No one but the President knew we were there.
The crew was all nestled deep down in their bunks,
While the Spook and I watched the sampans and junks.
Our mission was secret, so secret in fact,
No one else would remember it when we got back.
When out on the water there arose such a clatter
I leaped down from the bridge to see what was the matter.
The incoming friendly was starting to flash
And I knew that the ARVN's were having a bash.
The snap of friendly fire on the warm tropic air
Convinced me for sure no one knew we were there,
On a clandestine mission so secret it's true
That I'm still convinced only Tricky Dick knew.
While I huddled for safety in the tub on the bow,
I thought of a title, "Apocalypse Now."
To give to the films I was I making each day
To show all the voters when I made my big play.
As I sat there sweating in my lucky flight jacket,
Spook said, "Merry Christmas!" and tossed me a packet.
And what to my wondering eyes did appear,
But a new lucky cap, which I still have right here.
I keep it tucked here, in this leather brief case,
Just sharing with the press its secretive place
As I regale them again with my senate refrain,
That Christmas in Cambodia is seared into my brain.
Don't bother to quibble with history my friend,
By pointing out Johnson was President then.
Don't listen to Swiftees who try to explain,
For I tell you that night is seared into my brain.
Down Hibbard, down Lonsdale, and you too O'Neill,
So you don't remember? Well it's something I feel.
I don't need all you Swiftvets to support my campaign,
Cause Christmas in Cambodia is seared into my brain,
Into my brain, into my brain, into my brain...
