Thanks for this forum.
I'll listen to anyone with a DD-214, any branch, MOS, or era.
If you don't have a 214, you have nothing to say that I need to hear.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if 50% of the posts here are non vets. Alot of wanna be's who want to bash Kerry.

Whatever our differences may be, as a veteran I have respect for all veterans who served, I do not however respect a man who left his post to campaign for a political candidate when our men were dying in Vietnam.

I've been visiting this site and wanted to join. I served in US Army from 3-68 thru 8-71 (active duty) & 8-71 thru 5-74 active reserves. Vietnam from 8-68/8-69 MACV/CORDS Tac Team #33 based out of Nha Trang. Last rank was SSG E-6 (went thru Drill Sergeant School at Ft. Jackson).

For the record, John F. Kerry is a weasel and the truth will prevail about this SOB in the end. I feel better now.

Regards,

WT


So Kerry is a weazel and Bush is an honorable man who served his country, what a joke. I think we must have some very jealous guys here, or you just have the same mentality as the former cheerleader we have as prez, my vote goes for Kerry and I am a vet


Truth108,

It's not a Kerry bashing site. There are plenty of those available. It must be understood, however, the disdain that Vietnam veterans have for Hanoi John. The thing to attempt to understand is that this is not about parisan politics but about personal character and what we consider to be personal betrayal. For those of us who served in Nam and have been spit on by many for many many years, fuses can be very short if inflamed by anyone and I mean anyone.

I always seem to hear you responding to facts about Kerry with slanders toward Bush. Have you run out of positive things to say about Kerry?
If you don't want to comment on his actions in the early seventies, then comment on his record as an elected official. The other day someone posted a list of Kerry's voting record and I must say it was not impressive.
In a presidential election, I am always concerned about what a candidate has done rather than his "chicken in every pot" promises about what he will do.
So, forget the name Bush for a few minutes and let's hear what you think is so great about Kerry.

Typical responses from trolls and others that seek to disrupt sites is to not discuss or debate the topics or issues at hand, which on this site is whether John F. Kerry is fit to be President and Commander-in-Chief or not. That is the sole purpose of this site. But, there are those that feel that they do not have to discuss or debate the topics at hand, but must retaliate with their own comments against President Bush, his administrtion, members of his administration, and policies and actions, words, deeds of same.

If you want to make a difference here, then try and stick to debate and discuss the issues and topics at hand, namely pro or anti Kerry, and your reasons why John F. Kerry should or shouldn't be President and Commander-in-Chief! You will not convince anybody here with your hate filled retoric towards President Bush, or his administration. By doing that, all you invite is attacks upon yourself.

Just my .02 cents!

Woof!

Possibly not so eloquently, but that's exactly what I've posted innumerable times over the last few days.

This is not an open political debate forum. It is deliberately limited to the experience of its founders and supporters....a bunch of old dogs and rats..... Laughing

That's K-9's, Riverrats, Cu Chi Tunnel Rats, Swifties, and all the others that shared the experience of the Vietnam War.

Hey Truth, weren't you one of the ones whining about freedom of speech? Or, does that only apply To Bush bashers?

Yes, I don't support Kerry and never will. Deal with it. I also have the same freedom of speech kerry-bots have and intend to exercise it. I have sat back and listened to my President being bashed daily since he was elected to office. So yes, I am exercising my freedom of speech by exposing John "F"in Kerry in every legal way I can.

I wasn't Swift boats or even Navy, I was Army, so don't go off on Swiftvets because of my dislike of your boy. If all you want is glowing praise of a cowardly traitor, I suggest you go back to DU, moveon.org or dnc.org. You can then listen to all the lying garbage you want about your boy.

I'm ex-USNR P-3 Orion Radio Op. Joined the Navy the day after Kerry did (but I was enlisted, not officer). Vietnam - Cam Rahn 1968 for short stay.

I run http://www.vetsagainstkerry.org/ and you'all are welcome to drop by our forum. Veterans any era and their families only.

I am also working with Vietnam Veterans For The Truth ( http://kerrylied.com/ ) who are planning a big rally on Sept 12 on the Capitol Steps.

I have a blog, and have a lot of articles on kerry - a couple of today's articles you guys might find of immediate interest. The blog is http://www.tinyvital.com/blog/ ( Useful Fools)

Two articles of immediate interest: http://www.tinyvital.com/BlogArchives/000837.html - Communist Vietnamese Honor John Kerry - More. We really want to get the word out on this one - Kerry's picture is hanging in Saigon's "War Remnants" museum in a place of honor for those who helped win the war for the Communists. The article points to a press release - if you know a talk radio station or other website, drop this on 'em.

and

http://www.tinyvital.com/BlogArchives/000836.html - Dangerous Political Operatives - with pictures of Boats Turly, Ken Briggs and Terry Boone at the Vietnam Memorial.

I live in the Phoenix, AZ area, and just got back from my annual tornado chasing vacation with my daughter (wife is too chicken/smart to go along).

Welcome Home

Heya, gustnado,

DH was an airborne radio operator with VP-3 (P3's) before he cross-rated to AC2. We met in AC-A school. Smile

He later went LDO.

I've visited tinyvital a few times - you've got some good stuff there, no doubt.

Nice to "meet you," and welcome aboard.

Don't mind the troll flood, it's just DU and f*ckedcompany.com and johnkerry.com descending en masse and making BIG points for the Kerry Kampf. Wink

gustnado, Welcome aboard. Batten down your hatches, and stand by for heavy seas! I spent 4 years as Air Force from 70 to 74 as Security Police K9, then out for five, and then into the Navy for 16 years as an Electronics Technician for 8 and Electricians Mate for 8.

Give em hell! I've been to your website many times, and I commend you on it! Woo-Hoo!

Woof!

How ironic that you should be discovered to be a wannabe, so soon after making that post.

Just noticed this...

I was referring to 108, who was posturing as a vet and shortly thereafter, had his story fall apart on him.
