FBI files indicate that VVAW leader Al Hubbard reported to the VVAW Executive Committee meeting upon returning from Paris the following, “Hubbard indicated that VVAW as an organization had received commitments of support from Leftists throughout the world. He indicated that following the conference he had private discussions with individuals from Laos and Cambodia, the primary topic discussed were tactics in the United States anti-war movement. In his opinion these discussions turned out to be the most important part of the conference for him. He said that during these talks he was able to confirm the fact that a seven...

Recently I have read that John Kerry has told the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth that he was not referring to them in his senate speech in 1971, but to all the other Vietnam War veterans. Well, we should apply the same standard to this that Kerry and his news pals have used, that is; That Kerry did not serve in their tent, unit, team, foxhole, aircraft, patrol unit, or squad so therefore he cannot know what these men were doing or not doing. Therefore, because by his own admission that by these standards the SBVT could not have known...

Local Vietnam veterans disagree about Kerry book Co-author makes signing appearances at Bath, Jackson township bookstores By Denise Grollmus Beacon Journal staff writer Vietnam veterans, who once stood united in their fight for democracy, stood divided outside of the Barnes and Noble bookstore in Bath Township, where Unfit For Command co-author Jerry Corsi was making a book-signing appearance Saturday. The controversial book, which accuses John Kerry of having lied about his service in the Vietnam War to further his political career, was co-written by Corsi and John O'Neill, founder of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth and the commander who...

Anti-Kerry author draws both sides Sunday, August 29, 2004 By MELISSA GRIFFY Repository staff writer JACKSON TWP. — Though those buying an anti-Kerry book at Borders Books & Music on Saturday vastly outnumbered the dozen Kerry supporters protesting the book, the group didn’t go unnoticed. Some drivers blared their cars’ horns in support as they rode past the group, which was holding John Kerry signs near the Portage Street NW entrance of The Strip. Still others literally gave the Kerry supporters a thumbs down. One of the authors of “Unfit for Command,” Jerome Corsi, signed books for area residents at...

One more brick in the Kerry wall...... http://teamhouse.tni.net/Misc/Kerry/ChungKerry.htm

Following are some of the major charges made against Hanoi John French Kerry by the SwiftVets, alongside supporting points and authorities, from Unfit for Command and other readily available documented sources on the internet and elsewhere: I. Kerry refuses to release official military and medical records (Unfit for Command pages 180-181) Kerry's campaign refuses to complete the simple Form 180 which would provide for the official & proper release of Kerry's military records and has sought to hide other records from the public and the press. 1) Washington Post reports on August 22, 2004, "Although Kerry campaign officials insist that...

Nov. 3, 2004: Vietnam vets - finally, you heroes have come home You were spit on. You were called war criminals. You were called baby killers. You served your country and came home to abuse and to be shunned by your countrymen. Many never came home at all. There were lost limbs, broken lives, broken families, alcoholism, drugs, homelessness, despair, and even suicide. You could not understand why you were so hated. There was no parade welcoming you home. There was nobody to offer you their seat on a full airplane. There was no one wanting to shake your hand...

NASSAU BAY, Texas - Nearly 40 protesters gathered Saturday at the suburban Houston home of the chief financial backer of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth's television ad criticizing Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry's military record. But the elusive Bob J. Perry didn't appear to be at his Nassau Bay home and didn't answer three doorbell rings by several veterans seeking to hand-deliver a letter asking him to stop supporting the swift boat veterans group. "We deeply resent what he's doing to the veterans," said Richard Zaner, a 70-year-old veteran of the Korean War who lives in the same suburb...

"Injustice is relatively easy to bear. What stings is justice." — H.L. Mencken Listening to John Kerry complain about the scrutiny his Vietnam record is getting is like Pamela Anderson complaining about the fact that guys keep staring at her breasts. What the hell did you expect? When you turn the Democratic National Convention into a four-day screening of Apocalypse Now — complete with the candidate's own home movies; when you stride to the podium with a crisp salute and a "reporting for duty"; when your political entourage has more military uniforms in it than the coatroom of a Subic...

To: stockpirate I am not sure this is the proper place to put this...but here goes... To All The Vets of Viet Nam, I was born in 1955, a baby boomer...into an alcoholic and abusive family. I was 14 years old when Woodstock rocked this nation. I remember standing in front of a 12" black and white set watching it unfold on the 6 o'clock news.

Being 14 with a father who like to use his fists..I naturally rejected anything he...

What a day !! I went to the two largest book chains in the country and what an experience !! First, Barnes and Noble has the book but it's not on sale, for some reason. I told the manager that the book is #1 on the NY Times Bestseller list and all of those books are discounted. But not "Unfit For Command." So I told them I would go to Borders.....what a mistake !!! No book. They have a waiting list for reserve copies. As I asked the store clerk why they don't have the #1 book in the country,...

"...I can cite many, many instances, sir, as in combat when these men refused to fight with us, when they shot with their guns over tin this area like this and their heads turned facing the other way. When we were taken under fire we Americans, supposedly fighting with them, and pinned down in a ditch, and I was in the Navy and this was pretty unconventional, but when we were pinned down in a ditch recovering bodies or something and they refused to come in and help us, point blank refused. I don't believe they want to fight, sir..."

It only shows Kerry for a second (at around 1:15) but you can get a feel for the radical nature of the event and organization. Listen carefully near the end and you will hear a VVAW member state that the next time he fights will be to take these steps. Referring to the steps at the US Capitol or the WH.

Unfit for CommandSwift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry By John O'Neill and Jerome E. Corsi Regnery. 216 pp. $27.95 Nemesis was the Greek goddess of retribution. Her name has come to be used to designate anyone relentless in the pursuit of vengeance. John O'Neill is John Kerry's nemesis. O'Neill is the man behind Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, which has run a couple of television ads sharply critical of Kerry's military record. John O'Neill was also the commander of Swift Boat PCF 94. The man he succeeded as commander was none other than John Kerry. O'Neill served in...

I have no views on whether one or more of John Kerry’s bemedalled wounds from the Mekong Delta 35 years ago were self-inflicted — though the Kerry campaign, in its second big concession to his chastisers, now says his first Purple Heart-earning wound might have been ‘unintentionally self-inflicted’. But there’s no doubt every wound from the last 35 days is self-inflicted, beginning with the candidate’s disastrous decision at the Democratic Convention to play up Vietnam and play down Iraq, 9/11 and anything else that happened in the last 30 years. Since then Kerry’s shot himself in the foot so many...
