Thank you for your dedication and work in this election year.
As a former Navy man, I'm appalled by John Kerry's actions in Viet Nam and his anti-war activities afterwards.
To me, his opportunistic agenda is treason. Every Vet that served this great country of ours, should hear the call. Those that served in Viet Nam should remember the names he called them, baby killers, et. He stated that he saw these crimes being committed, doesn't that make him an accessory and punishable under the UCMJ.
Not to mention conduct un-becoming an officer.
John Kerry's stance on the E.U. and U.N. should make every American scream. I can only imagine our service men and women being dragged into the world court, there goes both the Constitution and UCMJ right out the window. Not to mention the oath of office- To protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

I served in the late 70's to early 80's and knew several that served in Viet Nam.
America does not need, deserve, can tolerate John Kerry in anyway shape or from.

Keep up the good work.

Steve Christensen

Steve, for the record, and FWIW, it has not been established that Kerry ever used the term "baby killers".

Welcome to the forum.

I was refering to the atrocities that he was talking about. I didn't mean to generalize. Just the stigma that he placed on the vets.

I am a veteran of the Korean War who certainly needs no reminder of what John Kerry did to this country upon his return from Vietnam. To this day I wonder how this man could have been elected to the U.S. Senate. I implore those of like mind to come together to insure that he obtains no higher office. Since the media is taking a hands off approach to an unpopular past we are left with writing books, doing mass mailings and possibly a documentary to unmask this traitor. Time is short but it can be done please count me in as a contributor.

He did state in his rantings before congress, and it is recorded in the Congressional Record, "we killed men, women and children". That is pretty damn close to "baby killer" in my book. We were on the ground 24/7 in country, in the paddies, and we never had anytyhing like that happen.
Although, we did expend a claymore on a pig one night. Well come on! Laughing It was dark & it wouldn't respond to the password!! Caught hell from the LT on that one!! Embarassed
I want to see every one of his "band of brothers" produce a DD214. Then I will believe his so called veteran supporters. I know some Swift Boat personnel support him. I just demand that the media doesn't allow the "Detroit hearings" to happen again.

We tried to kill a water-buffaloe once. Not to start telling war stories, but 5 M-16's firing full auto could not stop a charging water-buffaloe. Fortunately there were no serious injuries except to the diginity of everyone in the squad! Embarassed

We also learned that even the M14 had a hard time stopping those big boys! The trusty M79 worked best. We had to pay the farmer for that one too. Laughing He should have locked it up!

Watched one of our escorts lob a morter shell over a hedge row to kill a cow laying in ambush Razz . I guess if I were Kerry I would have gotten a silver star for participating in that action.
