Latest email from the Kerry camp to my junk email address. This guy is seriously deluded.
Quote: | Dear Lew,
"Tell the truth. Fire the incompetents. Get out of Iraq. Have health care for all Americans. These are pretty simple messages, and they're worth fighting for today."
That's what I said yesterday when I appeared on "Meet the Press" to push our call for two deadlines and an exit from Iraq.
You and I both know it will take a massive citizen effort to force a President bogged down in this war to change his course - but doing so is our moral responsibility.
I urge you to join me today in calling for the withdrawal of American combat troops by the end of 2006 - and sooner than that if Iraqi politicians allow the civil war to grow and continue to delay, squabble and jockey for their own political turf while our brave soldiers sacrifice life and limb every day to create the conditions for democracy.
Sign our Out of Iraq in 2006 Petition Now
Fortunately, more and more people are stepping forward to join in our call to bring our troops home by the end of this year. Political leaders like Russ Feingold, Max Cleland, and Gary Hart have endorsed our plan -- and grassroots support for our call to action is growing.
Still, the President and his administration remain frozen in place, boxed in by George W. Bush's stubborn refusal to admit that he has America on the wrong course in Iraq. The President seems content to endlessly wait for various political factions in Iraq to get their act together.
That's totally unacceptable. And you and I have a moral responsibility to do everything in our power to make George W. Bush do what he likes to do the least - and that's confront reality head-on.
Sign our Out of Iraq in 2006 Petition Now
I'm not suggesting that this will be easy. The fact is, it would be far easier to challenge the President on other topics if all we were interested in is scoring political points.
But, no one in 2006 -- Democratic or Republican, liberal or conservative -- can refuse to step forward and offer clear ideas on Iraq. And, with 133,000 courageous American men and women putting their lives on the line for democracy in Iraq, it is essential for you and other members of our three-million person johnkerry.com community to take action.
I need you to join me in leading an all-out effort to turn this President's wrong-headed policy on Iraq around. And ask your friends and family to do the same by forwarding this email to them.
Sign our Out of Iraq in 2006 Petition Now
Our soldiers have done their jobs. They can't resolve political differences between Iraqis in an escalating civil war. It can't be done militarily; it can't be done from a Humvee or a helicopter. It can only be accomplished by a dramatic change of course, turning away from George W. Bush's aimless "stay for as long as it takes" approach. You and I have to try to make this administration change their approach before it's too late.
I urge you not to wait another day before signing onto this profoundly important fight for a better way.
Sincerely,
John Kerry
P.S. Late Saturday night I went to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington. The Wall is a powerful reminder of our moral obligation to tell the truth. As you walk down the ramp, you find yourself literally engulfed as the Wall, tens of thousands of names etched on it, gets higher and higher.
There are far too many people whose names are on the Wall who died after leaders in Washington knew that our policy wasn't working. We need to get Iraq right for our soldiers today before we let history repeat itself. |
Seems much of this email is another rehash for earlier articles and statements. Leave to old Lurch to try to 'recycle' make people think he is knowledgeable. |

That had about as much effect on this imposter as his mother's purported dying words, didn't it? In addition to everything else, the guy is a complete fraud. |

Moral obligation to tell the truth?
Aren't we all still waiting for Lurch to sign his SF-180 for full public disclosure of his records? |

I think I am having a nightmare. John Kerry and I have so much in common.
We were both in the Navy.
We were both in Viet Nam
We both spent time on swift boats.
We have both been to the WALL
President Bush hasn’t called either of us for advice.
Neither of us will ever be President.

Yeah. But you stayed for a full tour of twelve months instead of just four
You never had delusions about a "magic hat" while covertly in Cambodia,
Shot yourself with an M-79 or blasted rice up your butt using a grenade
And probably really grooved on Ike & Tina Turner instead of Joanie Baez
.............. ..............
Plus you maintained your honesty and integrity "back in the real world"
And made SURE that faux wannabe Swifty got put in his proper place
The man is a laughing stock of the all of the country and doesn't know it
................................. ! SEMPER SWIFT ! .................................

Actually, I am a fan of Merle Haggard and “Okie from Muskogee”. I am jealous because I spent about forty months in tax free status between 1965 and 1973 without getting a purple heart or a silver star. _________________ I was going to become an anarchist, but they had too many rules. |

The last time he went to the wall didn't he get chased away by real Vietnam Vets? As I recall he was told that he did not deserve to be there. His reply was FU real class eh. |

overheard from a Vet ......
If there were any justice in this world the next time Kerry goes near the Vietnam Wall, it would fall on him. _________________ .

I'm on vacation this week. I'm curently at my #3 Kid's house in
Virginia. This afternoon we went to the Mall in Washington. It was
the first time in 40 years that I've been there, and only my second
time at that.
I went to the Wall. I'm happy to say that there were a lot of respectful
vets there. J.F. Kerry was NOT there. A short distance from there
is, I think, the Kerry memorial...otherwise known as the john. They
should engrave his face in those white porcelin things in there.

Some things are just wrong!
Bill Clinton on the Bridge of a Navy ship wearing a ships cap and a flight jacket (or any item of a uniform worn by honorable men).
John Kerry being anywhere in the vicinity of The Wall.
Turns the stomach, alright. _________________ "In a word, I want an American character, that the powers of Europe may be convinced we act for ourselves and not for others; this, in my judgment, is the only way to be respected abroad and happy at home." --George Washington |
