 |
|
Thanks, John Kerry, for running for president and bringing up all those
grand old memories of the Nam. Thanks for reminding me of being told
to change into civilian clothes before leaving the base area of Travis AFB
after I DEROS'ed. Thanks for reminding me of all the vets who came home with undiagnosed and unrecognized PTSD. Thanks for reminding me
of so many vets who ended up homeless and drug/alchohol adicted. Thanks for reminding me of the televised Credence Clearwater Revival led "Welcome Home" concert 10 years after the war was over and all the vets who this concert could have helped 10 years previous were either dead or beyond help. Thanks for reminding me of all the vile and viloent anti-American protests (I say anti-american because while as Americans we have the right to protest, I submit we do not have the right to punish the men and women who served when asked). And, finally, thanks for the memories of belittleing of every brave soldier, sailor, airman, and marine with your unearned medals, your devastatingly ugly and mostly untrue testimony in the public eye.
Were you partly responsible for additional deaths in the Nam along with Hanoi Jane? On that point, you get my vote, Bubba. Thanks for nothing!!

It says quite a bit about a man that during those years when others were
in the jungle, on a river, taking shrapnel and taking risks, that he instead
was in a meeting with the enemies of those soldiers, whose result was to
produce propaganda in the media and Congress that would deceive the
country into believing that hundreds of thousands would NOT perish if the
United States just walked away from its obligations in South East Asia.
But there was no shame for that man. Instead he is today revered in the
War Crimes Museum in HCM City for helping win the political war for the
Communists. That was terribly wrong then. He is terribly wrong today.
And there will be a majority of Americans at the polls this November rejecting
that wrongness with their votes based on truth rather than exaggerations

A direct result of the VVAW's deliberate subversion of the American public for their own ends, the pursuit of power.
Put in terms liberals and leftists can understand, these American ex-military personnel (and the millions of Vietnamese uprooted or killed after the war) were John Kerry's and Jane Fonda's victims.

Thanks, to Bill Clinton,we won't have to worry about the traitor Kerry for awhile  The Libs are lined up with kneepads on,knocking Kerry out of the spot light for the summer. Ol' Dan Blather will kick off the "Summer of Clinton",looking deep into Clinton's eyes for the whole hour on 60 minutes! |
