Troops Respond To John Kerry's Slander

Do Democrats think their doom and gloom talk about the war in Iraq doesn't get to our troops? Well, it didn't take long for Kerry's comments to reach them... and they have issued their own response.

Classic. They get it and so does most of America. Kerry's "botched joke" is just that, a joke. He has ripped on US troops since the 1970's at every turn so why on earth should we believe he is doing anything less than that now?

Here's another good one

When are we going to have an adult conversation about the situation in Iraq?

When is everyone going to stop this school yard namecalling and craft a solution to Bush's failed war?

Republicans are good at attacking political opponents, war vets and anyone else who criticizes them. But they are totally incapable of attcking the real problems facing America.

soooo, I guess we're all to stoooopid to get his joke? Won't someone with an enormous liberal brain help explain it to us? Please aaaaaron, wade, tommy boy, willem van der banana? What does it mean?

I thought that my 3.96 GPA and magna cum laude BA meant I got the whole school thing? I thought that standing up for what you believe was a good thing? Now I'm just confused. Can you please tell me what drug I have to take to understand you guys?

Posted by: Kahn [TypeKey Profile Page] at November 1, 2006 02:54 PM

Kahn...don't you get it? They are smarter than all of us...just ask them.

Their elitist snob attitudes turns off so many voters and they still do not get it.

They disparage the south as stupid, they disparage any conservative voter as dumb.

It's funny, like you I had a 3.90 GPA in graduate school, hold several masters degrees. I am not a Republican, but I sure as hell don't vote Democrat. I am a conservative independent and if these guys want to call me dumb, fine by me.

Posted by: Warriornation [TypeKey Profile Page] at November 1, 2006 03:26 PM

I get the joke, its called the Democratic Party.

The good senator managed to insult me twice; I am a vet AND I dont have a college degree. Ive been working on one here and there but family needs take precedence so its on hold. But guess what, I make a good living in the trades and have earned everything I have by my own hard work.

Kerry managed to disparage vets and make it seem as if the only option a person has is to go to college or join the military. News for ya senator, there are millions of people out here who dont have a college degree and are busy making a living every single day of the year.

Not all of us can marry rich widows. Pass the ketchup.

Bush's failed war?

Right, and the democrats have an adult solution?

What is that exactly?

Posted by: Tom at November 1, 2006 09:21 PM

Poor Kerry, he's been such a loser lately. Must be part of that segment of Vietnam Vets who became warped from that experience. As for Murtha...what does he know that changed him from a hawk to a dove? Rather than attack him or defend him, we need to dig deeper to find the answer(s) before chalking it off to "politics". Besides Murtha, there seem to be an inordinate amount of Vets running for office who are against the war. Why is it that those who have experienced the horrors of war are not so quick to send soldiers off to war but those who have never gone to war, are the first to do so?

Posted by: jan et spat at November 1, 2006 10:40 PM

When are we going to have an adult conversation about the situation in Iraq?

When Bush's critics agree to consider the possibility that he did not lie us into this war, but was honestly mistaken.

When Bush's critics do not characterize his (or his administration's) responses to criticism as "intolerance of dissent", as if disagreement with that dissent is a violation of the first amendment.

When Bush's critics stop mischaracterizing the war as "unilateral" and acknowledge the fact that over 30 allies were in our coalition when the invasion took place.

When Bush's critics acknowledge the fact that the Clinton administration also stated or implied that Saddam had WMD's, before Bush took office.

Posted by: Bigfoot [TypeKey Profile Page] at November 1, 2006 10:41 PM

Bigfoot, you only covered a very few of the things that would be necessary to engage in a rational and intelligent discussion of Iraq. You know, the kind of discussion we conservatives have all the time, among ourselves.

And the first thing I think the Dems would have to do to be eligible for such a discussion would be to study a little history, and learn and understand that war is messy, war is unpredictable, war is dangerous, and war is always going to result in some errors in judgement, some actions that appear to be errors at the time but later turn out to have been the right decisions, some spectacular victories, some spectacular defeats, and the inability to accurately assess any of these until quite some time has passed and all the information is in, including the down-the-line results and consequences.

I think a Dem football game would end at the first fumble or penalty, and their World Series would be lucky to get through the first game if one team got ahead of the other. Certainly, if these Libs had had any input into World War Two, for example, we would have just rolled over and slunk away with out tails between our yellow-stained legs the first time a Lib had the opportunity to wail "But it's soooo HAAAAAAARRRRDDDDD!!!"

The Libs lack two things which they would have to acquire to be part of an intelligent and rational discussion. One is the historical perspective, but the other is intellecutal honesty. Until they can apply the same criteria to everyone, instead of making up new rules just to support their own political agendas, they simply cannot be taken seriously.

Which is exactly why we don't take them seriously.

Posted by: Almiranta [TypeKey Profile Page] at November 1, 2006 11:19 PM

I've repeatedly asked liberals to put forward a plan. I've seen several conservative posters do so.

Bigfoot, look back through some of the posts. Or, well, give us YOUR plan....

Kahn,

“Bigfoot, look back through some of the posts. Or, well, give us YOUR plan....” I think Bigfoot was slamming Bush’s critics in response to Wade’s comment “When are we going to have an adult conversation about the situation in Iraq?”

Having read several of Bigfoot’s previous posts I believe he understands that Bush and his administration have a well laid out plan and have been making adjustments as needed. His answer to Wade in as much said; “When you act like adults, we’ll treat you like adults” but he did it with more style and detail. Almiranta followed it up with additional key points.

"He was a cold-blooded murderer in vietnam!

He saw an innocent Mother and her child trying to run free, running for her and her childrens life, And HE SHOT HER in the back, seperating her from her ONLY child!! And then blames his act of murder on the troops!!!!!!!!!"

Someone's account who was actually there differs alot from yours Jerry.

"On Aug. 22 an officer who was present supported Kerry's version, breaking a 35-year silence. William B. Rood commanded another Swift Boat during the same operation and was awarded the Bronze Star himself for his role in attacking the Viet Cong ambushers. He said Kerry and he went ashore at the same time after being attacked by several Viet Cong onshore.
Rood said he was the only other officer present. Rood is now an editor on the metropolitan desk of the Chicago Tribune, which published his first-person account of the incident in its Sunday edition. Rood said he had refused all interviews about Kerry's war record, even from reporters for his own paper, until motivated to speak up because Kerry's critics are telling "stories I know to be untrue" and "their version of events has splashed doubt on all of us."

Rood described two VietCong ambushes, both of them routed using a tactic devised by Kerry who was in tactical command of a three-boat operation. At the second ambush only the Rood and Kerry boats were attacked.

Rood: Kerry, followed by one member of his crew, jumped ashore and chased a VC behind a hooch--a thatched hut--maybe 15 yards inland from the ambush site. Some who were there that day recall the man being wounded as he ran. Neither I nor Jerry Leeds, our boat's leading petty officer with whom I've checked my recollection of all these events, recalls that, which is no surprise. Recollections of those who go through experiences like that frequently differ.

With our troops involved in the sweep of the first ambush site, Richard Lamberson, a member of my crew, and I also went ashore to search the area. I was checking out the inside of the hooch when I heard gunfire nearby.

Not long after that, Kerry returned, reporting that he had killed the man he chased behind the hooch. He also had picked up a loaded B-40 rocket launcher, which we took back to our base in An Thoi after the operation.

Rood disputed an account of the incident given by John O'Neill in his book "Unfit for Command," which describes the man Kerry chased as a "teenager" in a "loincloth." Rood said, "I have no idea how old the gunner Kerry chased that day was, but both Leeds and I recall that he was a grown man, dressed in the kind of garb the VC usually wore."

Morphie,

John Kerry said with his own mouth, "There were no American heroes" against the Vietnamese .
WOW, Just think of that would you! NO HEROES????? OUT OF 500,000 men and women in uniform!!!!!!!!!!!
I suspect after hearing that, from that pundit mouth, There are no heroes in 9/11 either???? SICK!

It just galls one to think about it!!!!!!!!!

Here, Let me show you just what kind of man this John Kerry is in our goverment, this is what he stands for still yet today:

"After their victory, the Communists established a network of nearly one hundred "Reeducation camps," political prisons in which they incarcerated indefinitely a wide range of former enemies-officials of the South Vietnamese government; bureaucrats and educators; intellectuals, including writers, reporters, and religious leaders; anyone whom the Vietnamese communists considered dangerous because they had supported the United States to stop the advance of Communism in Indochina. Estimates of the number of people put through these camps range from half a million to nearly one million."

This all began around 1975, and caused a mass exile to any land the vietnamese could to get away from the communists, but it was the rhetoric of John Kerry to prove that he was indeed in favor of Communism, and in my opion, He is a COMMUNIST RIGHT NOW, THIS VERY DATE AND HOUR!!!!

John Kerry and his Anti-war associates tried to prove otherwise, he said the Vietnamese comprehended no fundamental difference between freedom and Communism, Why did so many risk death?

A Toi Dang officer and a An Thoi officer were swift boat brothers in the Coastal division 11, and they are swift brothers to this day, and they knew John Kerry well-and to reaccount Mr. Kerry's words, Officer Dang said - "His testimony was all LIES. He is a brother only to other liars-not to my Swift brothers."

Make no mistake friend, We NEVER LOST ONE BATTLE IN VIETNAM, BUT WE FAILED MISERABLY AT HOME, ALL BECAUSE WE BOWED TO THE COMMUNIST DEMOCRATS!!!
WHO IS RESPONSIBLE AND SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE? John F. Kerry, Your First Class BACKSTABBING, PUNDIT MOUTH, HYPOCRITICAL, COMMUNIST, LIBERAL-LEFT DEMOCRAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...AND HE IS THE SAME COMMUNIST TODAY AS HE WAS IN 1971, HE BLAMES OUR TROOPS FOR THE TORTURE AND ATROCITIES THAT HE HIMSELF HAS COMMITTED IN COLD-BLOOD AGAINST AMERICA!!

Words are just like cocked-guns, once uttered they CANNOT BE TAKEN BACK, and the image that John Kerry has portrayed himself, only goes to show that he is DANGEROUS without question!!

He is part of the blame America first crowd, the communist regime loving crowd, the HATE America crowd, and it would only be fitting to hold him for treason and then imprisoned for the horrible actions that he has committed against America and our fine young men and women in uniform!! They deserve better, America deserves better, the WORLD deserves better than the LIAR that John Kerry IS!!

JOHN KERRY HAS SEALED HIS IMAGE!!

JOHN KERRY HAS BREACHED THE AMERICAN PEOPLES TRUST!!

JOHN KERRY IS UNFIT FOR COMMAND

So, Mr. Morphie, Please get off of the kool-aid Sir, WAKE UP! and smell the coffee, because you following the ENEMY!!!

Our Military is Republican and hates Kerry...

Posted by: Ames Tiedeman at November 2, 2006 07:38 PM

This is some good stuff. I change your post to lean left and I'm on pills. You call Kerry a cold blooded murderer. I provide proof that you are DEAD wrong and you start your hate rant.

"His testimony was all LIES. He is a brother only to other liars-not to my Swift brothers."

Well that seals it. This guy said they're lies so I guess they are. You're right. There are people that agreed with what he said 30+ years ago and there are documented cases of what he describes.

Oh, and don't worry I'm not gonna vote for the guy. Just try not to lie so much.

Posted by: Morphie [TypeKey Profile Page] at November 2, 2006 08:09 PM

Morphie,

What LIES???

Morphie,

TELL ME! Where have I lied to you??

Also, TELL ME, WHY has John Kerry not, and REFUSES to execute the-Standard Form 180-??

THERE IS WHERE HIS DARK SIDE HIDES, HIS RECORD OF EVIL IS CONCEALED THERE!!!!

IF IS A FACT, IF HE IS WILLING TO FILE THIS FORM THEN HE WILL GO TO PRISON!!
I HOPE HE DOES!!!!!

You are very angry.

"He saw an innocent Mother and her child trying to run free, running for her and her childrens life, And HE SHOT HER in the back, seperating her from her ONLY child!! And then blames his act of murder on the troops!!!!!!!!!"

Provide source for this crazy statement or I call you a liar again. I don't think you're that misinformed, maybe you are.

"Also, TELL ME, WHY has John Kerry not, and REFUSES to execute the-Standard Form 180-??"

I don't know. I wish he would as well. Most of his records are available for public review. I think some of his medals are questionable but not all.

"IF IS A FACT, IF HE IS WILLING TO FILE THIS FORM THEN HE WILL GO TO PRISON!!"

Another crazy one...

What evil dark side are we gonna see?

What is the Democrat Party plan for VICTORY?

Bigfoot - sorry if I maligned you.
