John Kerry: Unfit for Command

looking at Kerry, his Vietnam tour reminds me of John Glenn's space exploits. he only joined the space program in order to use the visibility that it would give him for his planned political career. I see similar parallels with Kerry's Vietnam jaunt

[fintstone]

What I have always wondered is why Kerry wrote himself up for all those medals, but not the rest of his crew? Any action he saw, they could not help but see since they were all on the same small boat.

see what I mean?

LOL!

Trying to discredit a guy who went to Vietnam and distinguished himself.

What depths won't you guys sink to?

Tech, you have to admit, you set the bar pretty deep.

Mark, How dare you suggest John Kerry is Unfit to command. . ..didn't you hear Kerrys convention speach? Right at the start, so no one would have any doubts, about his privilege .. .his birthright, he said:

[kerry-voice]"I'm not making this up. I was born in the West Wing!"[/kerry-voice]

Now, I hope this clears-up that nothing else matter, cuz Kerry has destiny on his side. . . .or was that 'density on his side'. . .no, no that is Edwards with the oompa-loompa wife. Okay, so kerry has "Density on his side, once removed.

Kind of insulting to Fred Gwynn (RIP).

Once again...personal attacks.....

I don't like 'em from either side.

But they usually come from the same small group.

Here in our local paper, we have a cartoonist that gives equal time to both sides

GWB looks like "Curious George" from the children's books

JFK looks like "Lurch" from the Addams Family

Both images are funny, taken in a lighthearted mood. Some here, on both sides are simply mean spirited and meant to deflect any rational discussion.

BTW: "Human Events Book Service was designed to bring you the best conservative books available....."

Hardly unbiased.......

I did a search of sites with Corsi and O'Neill. They all looked like cuts and pastes of one another.

John O'Neill: "I was on John Kerry's boat..."
(just not when John was there)

I think it's legitimate to ask for details of Kerry's Vietnam record, because Kerry has made it a part of his campaign.

All it takes is a little digging and you see the entire 'Swift Boat' attack is pasted together from the campaign dirty tricks book. People who gave Kerry glowing praise 35 years ago are now trying to backpedal. One guy is trying to discredit one of Kerry's five service medals, but his account is in conflict with the doctor's notes at the time. The leaders of the group are longtime Republican campaign managers and contributors, so I dismiss the book as backlash for Kerry's later disavowal of actions in Vietnam.

In fact, it's Vietnam veterans who played a large role in winning Kerry the nomination.

On the other hand, there's the article Mark linked to -- one of several -- questioning the recent behavior of GWB at a July 8 press conference. Behavior that combined with other actions -- such as the infamous 'pretzel incident' make one question, at minimum, the state of health of the guy. I put this up without endorsement, butr asking if we should ahve access to the current prescription drug intake of the President. Some may recall that Bush1 also was on mood-management drugs, which adds, i think, further legitimacy to the question.

As for the 'remote diagnosis' in the article, well, I saw that done many times when Clinton was in office, along with every conspiracy theory in the world essentially suggesting the Clintons were mass murderers. I think by comparison, asking about the mental state of the President is quite legitimate.

What exactly does that mean?

Does that mean; you are posting it. . . but it's not really something that you are really posting?
