Be careful. There’s a big difference between Vietnam-era veteran and Vietnam veteran as I’m sure Sen. Tom Harkin will explain. Or, maybe he won’t.

I wonder if these records contain Kerry’s honorable discharge?

They probably do. But I'll bet they don't include the pre-Carter less-than-honorable one or any of those records.

That such a bum is still on our payroll is sickening.

Kerry was in Vietnam?

He sure did not serve a full tour. He did not serve 25% of a tour of duty. There are people that came back for legitimate reasons but not Kerry. Did he really get a Purple Heart? His company commander said that he did not sigh any Purple Heart papers. Where are your military papers kerry? Did you really get a Dishonorable Discharge and are afraid to show it?

The way the left works, I’d bet Kerry’s redacted records are about to be “released” and used as leverage on McCain to release his.

“released” means we will never see them;)

That would be form 180.He will never release this form because it will show a dishonorable discharge that was upgraded by....wait for it...jimma caata to an honorable.This can be the only reason that he wont turn it over.One of the enemy within beyond any doubt.

I do believe Pickens laid out specific terms for payment, including Kerry supplying all recods available of his service from 1972 to 1978, the date on the discharge Kerry supplied.

When does Kerry come clean and stop hiding behind others?

T. Boone Pickens could get out of paying. He could just register as a Democrat and say that he lied. Perfectly acceptable by libs’ standards.

that we will bring with us a Navy/Pentagon certified copy of Senator Kerry’s full military record and his writings and the movie footage you have requested.

Isn't this the way it's always worked? The deniers won't provide the information, they just say they *will* after the other side capitulates.
Give me $1M, and I will promise to provide Kerry's military records, too. :-)
