Wow Kate....thanks for the heads-up! I certainly hadn't anticipated Carlton Sherwood and the VVLF initiating a lawsuit to recover costs incurred.

My bet is that Kerry will never let this get to trial and Campbell and Bjornsen petition for an out-of-court settlement which will probably be court-ordered.

Nice to think that our recycled Sherwood/VVLF donations may get a second opportunity to set both the Kerry and Vietnam record straight.

Bumping this up to the top too

P.S. Anyone have an e-mail for Taranto? He'd get some good mileage out of this especially in light of Kerry's most recent "butt-kicking" bravado.

Asked if he dreads the prospect of being “Swift-Boated” all over again, Kerry counters that he would relish such a fight.

“I’m prepared to kick their ass from one end of America to the other,” he declares. “I am so confident of my abilities to address that and to demolish it and to even turn it into a positive.”

GLAD WE WERE ABLE TO OBLIGE YOU SO SOON, JOHNNY BOY!

Signed,
Swiftly Yours,

Army, Air Force, Coast Guard, Marines & Navy. Hm...sounds like a mjor butt kicking for him, *chuckle*.

Great News! and how I love 'October Surprises'...
Now, we can only hope that the defendants
can get their buddy sKerry on the witness stand
to testify on their behalf!
Time for those 35 year old Lies to be put to death!
You guys made my day! Pray this action doesn't
fall on the desk of one of those liberal judges we
keep hearing about! where the US Court becomes
the Theater of the Absurd! Can't wait for sKerry's
"a$$-kicking" in the City of Brotherly Love!...Hope
there's plenty-o-room in that Courtroom!

It's long past time for this lawsuit.
My wife, not particularly conservative, still has a glint in her eye when she asks about how Kerry got an honorable discharge.
And how he managed to cop three purple hearts in a little over four months.
And about what medals did he receive, really?

sKerry has never released all of his records. Where is that SF 180?
1) It is beyond dispute that Lt. Kerry was a huge liability to his command in Vietnam. Loose cannon is the best description I can think of. He would not follow orders. He would not carry out the assignments he was given. He was a hot dog, making videos of himself instead of preparing for his next mission. Ugh. I'd like to see his unexpurgated FitReps.
2) There is no doubt that his personnel folder was flagged "PI". He had big-time contacts in the Congress.
3) Because of his political connections he could not be relieved of command, as would be the case with an officer without political connections.
4) It was a clever move of his superiors to get him out of theater for non-courts martial reasons. An accusation of violating the UCMJ would have met with a firestorm under the Capitol dome. He committed numerous violations of the UCMJ (and that is just from what we know from the records which have been released).
5) Following his negotiations (!) with the North Vietnamese and the Vietcong in Paris, it is equally obvious that Nixon got his file, found the "PI" label, and decided to put him out of the service quietly.
6) It is no wonder Kerry will not release his records. The general discharge which he received while Nixon was President is a BIG BLACK MARK.
7) That he had his discharge upgraded to Honorable is just another black mark on the reputation of President Carter, the worst president in our history.
The continued rewriting of his Silver Star (with V for Valor (!)) shows his continued need to use his military service for political reasons, which reasons are totally unrelated to valor, or, indeed, to military service or love of country in the first place.
9) Where are all those written documents which discredit all that the SwiftVets have claimed? I am a news junkie, and I have never seen a single assertion disproved. Where has all of this disproof been hidden? Is it (dare I say) hidden in a pumpkin patch? All that I have heard has been big lie denial, with the hope that if the lie is repeated often enough it will be believed.
10) His testimony before Congress should have immediately led to a general court. He personally testified to being a war criminal, and should still be breaking rocks at Leavenworth.

Let Lt. Sen. Boston Blueblood Married-Rich (x2) John Forbes (Fitzgerald) Kerry bring it on!

Biased? Me? No way.

Of all the missing particulars in Kerry's records, the one that, I think, intrigues me most is the missing Page 1 of LCDR Joseph Streuli's (CO, Coastal 13) Kerry fitrep. Well, missing until it magically and purportedly re-appeared with the issuance of Kerry's SF180 to the "Chosen 3", yet no one other than those 3, to my knowledge, has seen it yet.

There is little doubt in my mind that Kerry buried that Page 1...for reasons unknown at this point. In fact, it appears that he took great pains to conceal the fact that it was missing by mis-sequencing his fitrep presentation so that Page 1 of George Elliot's subsequent fitrep (which, instead, FOLLOWED Elliot's Page 2!!!!) preceded the Streuli Page 2 (see pp. 22,23,24 - you can still see this at Findlaw.com, which hosts, I believe, a copy of the same fitrep presentation that Kerry offered at JohnKerry.com).
