You know, a part of me deep down is starting to feel sorry for Kerry, especially if this thing keeps escalating out of control and he can't do anything to stop it. You know, that has to really take a lot out of a person, no matter who they are.

Then I think about all the crap that he's done and the sorrow disappears rather quickly. He brought it on himself, he has nobody to blame but him.

Once he's out of the running for my Commander in Chief, then maybe I won't bash him as hard.

(unfortunately, as a member of the military, if he does make it to being my CIC, I have made a vow not to bash that office either regardless who holds it, so I guess my bashing will diminish either way)

I will NEVER feel sorry for him. He doesn't have enough of a conscience to ever feel guilty for the pain he has caused others. He only knows the pain of obstacles to his own ambitions.

I DO worry about the people who have been his little "Band of Brothers." When the truth hits them, it's going to hit HARD. When the blinders come off, they are going to feel a terrible amount of pain.

You know, I'm not going to let myself feel that again. I felt that for Al Gore, because he lost his shot to become president, and I hate for anyone to have their dreams shattered. However, listening and watching his Michael Moore type speeches since then, I no longer feel it.

[risawn]

hear hear.

I guess my thing is often times I get caught up in the human factor as well. . . the fact that everyone is human and we all make mistakes.

But some mistakes just can't be ignored or forgiven.

I don't know if Kerry will know the full repercussions of his actions until he meets his maker. I have no fear that he won't get what he deserves one day, and he seems to be getting plenty of it now.

I've been followign this forum pretty closely for the last week and a half, getting really caught up with this whole matter (i usually avoid politics pretty much, kinda like the plague). A part of me really wants to see this man break and suffer for what he's done.

But a part of me just wants him to get what is his due (basically which would mean NOT getting the Oval Office and eventually being kicked out of the Senate, and seeing some sort of justice due to his blatant lying to the court. I don't give a flying rats behind about him and Theresa, they seem to deserve each other).

I don't know how far I want to see him break however. Somethings I would rather feel more fortunate about not witnessing.

But I agree, if anybody deserves it, it is most likely him.

Go Swifties! You have my full support!

I'd like to see him taken out of politics totally. He's done grave damage to this country already, and could do a lot more in the future. Just ending this presidential race isn't enough, he could still get a prominent position where his influence could be felt. I'm for taking this as far as possible, short of inventing anything, I won't go there. I feel no pity for him, he did this to himself through his own actions over 35 years, and he deserves what he gets. I guess I'm heartless, eh?

[Son Of The Godfather]

A French-American friend of my liberal wife (double whammy!) started flapping her yap about how "everyone in Europe" thinks our current POTUS is a "criminal" and she is "embarrassed that she is from America".
My follow up to that wasn't pretty to say the least.

Regardless, if the treasonous Mr. Kerry should somehow weasle himself into the White House, I might be saying the same thing about a criminal POTUS and my shame that we let him take control of the nation.

Munster has to go down HARD enough so he can't get up. It is an outrage that he is even a Senator, but President?!? Unfathomable.

This is just my intuition but if he looses this thing and he very well may,

he will crack and it won't be pretty. There are some things you just

can't "see" and I don't see him loosing with any grace at all.

In a straight jacket maybe but not with grace. I think the man is mental.

He has spent his whole life faking his way toward this, and I am telling

you, it will never "compute" for him. He will go down screaming.

Risawn --

Sorry for Kerry? NO, NADDA, NEVER. I save my feeling sorry for the Vets who never recovered from the way they were treated by the war protestors fuel by Kerry's baby killer testimony. These are the guys who came back to the US without a big trust fund, ivy league education, or rich heiress wife (Kerry's first wife was worth $300million) to support them.

These soldiers were denied the honor and gratitude they earned through sacrifice, unlike Kerry's self-serving opportunism. Take all of your pity and give it to someone who deserves it. Give all your emotional caring to someone who needs it.

Sorry for Kerry that he won't (Dear God please hear my prayer) become CIC --- NO, NADDA, NEVER. Kerry will return to his job in the Senate, where he has never worked very hard, and his six mansions, and his billion dollar wife. When he isn't yachting, or flying around in this private jet to wind surf or snowboard.


And hopefully, finally honor will be restored to all of those maligned by Kerry over 30 years ago. My sympathy goes to those Vets who have suffered because of Kerry. I don't feel sorry for Hilter, Stalin, Lenin, Ho Chi Min, or Pol Pot either.

[rb325th]

Kerry is only a victim of his own words and actions. I neither pitty him nor feel remorse about the Truth being told!
Mr. Kerry opened this can of worms decades ago, then promptly mad it the Nations Buisness when he decided to run for the Presidency. If he wants it all to end, I suppose he could do the decent thing, tell the truth, sign a 180, and make a full and honest apology to ALL Veterans of Vietnam.

We all better realize that the MSM is looking for a way to make the Swiftboat story go away. They can't argue the facts so they just dismiss them. They are already consistently saying that it was the "fog of war" and other such nonsense. They refuse to look at the inconsistencies in the story and the hard facts. They spend more time trying to prove how the Bush campaign is behing it. They are going to try to use the RNC Convention coverage to bury this story. We better wake up. As I've said in other parts of this Forum we can complain to each other all we want but that doesn't force the media to look at the issues. Email them every time you see a falsehood on demand a journalistic standatrd stating specific facts. This fight is far from over.
