John Kerry never stops trying. He thinks only the Swift Boat Sailors are the only Vietnam Veterans against him.
No one really cares what he did in Vietnam. It is what he did after he returned that has Vietnam Vets against him...


John Kerry: I'm Now Prepared to Fight Off Swift Boat Veterans

FOXNews.com - John Kerry: I'm Now Prepared to Fight Off Swift Boat Veterans - Politics | Republican Party | Democratic Party | Political Spectrum

Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry, perhaps preparing to get back into the presidential ring one day, claims he's now armed with materials that will make war record critics from his 2004 presidential campaign go running tail between legs.

The 63-year-old Democratic senator told The Patriot-Ledger on Tuesday that the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, a group of Navy servicemen who served with Kerry and criticized his record in Vietnam, will be revealed as liars.

I wish Kerry ran this election. Hillary would have ate him up. Even John Edwards would be kicking his tail.

Proudcapmarine,
Where the heck ya been? Great job keeping up on the Kerry situation!
He needs to go down!
I wonder what earth shattering info he could possibly have that would change the fact that he went against fellow soldiers with lies.

Kerry is a disgusting opportunistic villain. I hope some Vietnam veteran spits on him if he shows up for the parade. He should be spit on for all the spits many good and honorable Vietnam vets received because of Kerry's propaganda against the Vietnam Vets.

Awesome post...........Thank you...

Default Get Real!

Kerry volunteered, for service, volunteered for Viet Nam, won a purple heart and was honorably discharged. There's no getting around that and he merits any of the benefits given to veterans.

Yikes. Soem of you really need to move on. So Kerry volunteered for service, by all accounts served honorably and exceptionally (as his service records indicate in real-time). He came back and exercised the free speech rights he enjoys as an American. And in his testimony to Congress, he relayed tales other soldiers told him. Even if some of those soldiers gave Kerry bogus stories, there are plenty of documented atrocities that did happen, as one could expect in an environment like that.

I understand some of you feel that US veterans shouldn't be allowed to vocalize views different than your own. But, considering its Veterans Day, and Kerry is both a veteran and a Senator who has fought considerably for veterans benefits in Congress, he had every right to be there.

They banned me for a while. They said I was advertising my non-profit websites.

My sites sell nothing... But opinions.

Kerry is a traitor for what he did, when he returned from Vietnam and he should be charged accordingly.

Proudcap, drop the hyperbole. He said things you don't agree with. It's free speech, it's what he, and you I'm assuming, have fought for.

That's the country we live in, buddy. You can say things that don't jive with the ProudCapMarine worldview, and not end up in jail. I tend to think that's a good thing.
