The Odyessy Ends For Vietnam Vets
The Nathan Hale Institute | November 4, 2004

The Odyssey Ends For Vietnam Vets

They’re finally home and they kicked ass. Never defeated in a major battle in Vietnam, American Vietnam Vets finally came home this past Tuesday, November 2, 2004.

Led by John O’Neill and the Swift Boat Vets, America’s Vietnam Vets came home and threw the usurpers, the imposters and their leader out of the palace of our Republic and reclaimed their rightful place as our true heroes and leaders.

Their fellow citizens heard the truth of their words cloaked and ravaged for more than thirty years by the self-serving lies and slanders of pretend heroes.

Their intrepid spirit has been honored by the votes of millions of Americans who never forgot them and never wanted to believe the calumnies and lies of the usurpers.

On this coming Inauguration Day, the parade is not just for the re-election of our current commander-in-chief; it is the welcome home parade for our Vietnam Veterans, even the chastened Lt John Kerry.

God Bless the Swift Boat Vets, the POWs, the MIAs and all our Vietnam Vets.

A belated thank you from a grateful nation.

We cannot let this die. He's still a senator (Jr.!) thus still impacts our nation!

We will not falter, we will not fail...

The top of the can is open, and the worms are out!
"Hanoi John" still has lots of unanswered questions
to account for.   The Swift Boat Vets are going
to make life uncomfortable for Kerry when he returns
to the senate, and deserves whatever is dished out.

My sentiments exactly! God Bless ALL our Vets, from every conflict. America stands proud of the job you've done and continue to do.

Thanks this is one of my best laughs of a very happy day!

Maybe you should make that part of your tag line, "Old Twinkle Toes!"

Thank you for the ping Tonk. Kerry is still a traitor and a liar and needs to be exposed. Thank you for your service to our Country.

At 4:40AM Wednesday, Nov. 3rd, all alone and quiet, I went out to the middle of the street in my skivvies and did the George Huston "Happy Dance". Felt great!!

You must not live where I live (Wisconsin). Still, I'm happy you lived to do this and sad for your fellow Vietnam vets who can't.

You can always count on Free Republic to make any VET, including us Vietnam Vets, feel right at home. It is a place I found in '98, it is HOME for all freedom loving people, who have and are willing to pay any price, to keep it that way.

Freedom [as George Bush says] Is a gift from GOD and as I may add, NO ONE will take it away from us as long as we breathe.

Thanks for keeping at it Tonk. I naively thought that keeping kerry out of the oval office would be the end of it. I thought that would be the proof that the nation stands behind her Vets. And I still think it proves that most of us do. But I thought that knowledge would convince some of the others, and stifle the rest. I guess I'm not a very good judge of human nature. The battle rages on. I couldn't walk away now if I tried.

MR. KERRY, SIGN THE 180!

I have lost too many Nam, Korea, and WWII Vet friends over the past few years.

I am afraid the VietNam oddysey continues as long as health care for all veterans is what it is.

God, please bless them all.

Well Twinkle Toes, maybe the old lady will burn you a copy of her video of your little dance. LOL
