PostPosted: Wed Aug 25, 2004 5:05 pm    Post subject: the book made me bitter, too Reply with quote

Although I am not a Vietnam veteran, I am retired US Navy.

I remember hearing Kerry's name back in 1981 from a Navy Vietnam veteran. Kerry was the sort who wouldn't take care of his sailors and always thought of himself.

I think what got me riled in the book was the fact that Kerry met with communists back in 1971. Inexcusable. There should be a way to get Kerry disqualified from running for president.

Kerry is now backpedalling the fact that he attended meetings that discussed assassinations of key members of the Senate who were in support of the Vietnam war. No excuses, and no, no one can claim "well, that was over 30 years ago."

I just received my copy and I can not believe the POWER of this book. I have already ordered a second one to share. I agree with the writers who have started to read it and need to put it aside at intervals, and I am not a vet. I'm just a mother who loves her country and those who defend her. Thank you all.

I just received my copy from Amazon.com...I had to order it on line. I could not find it anywhere in town. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that your book is GREAT! I had only 45 minutes of spare time and finished over 50 pages. Then my gal pal at work saw it and asked if she could borrow it for her husband. He is career Army and wanted to read it. I'll get it back after the weekend and look forward to finishing it. I already have a number of other people at work who want to read it and learn the truth about John Kerry. Thanks for your service to this country. Shelley

I finally found a copy at Waldenbooks in Norfolk, Va. on Saturday evening. The store manager said they received 24 copies on Friday afternoon and sold all but three by Friday evening. This was in addition to the special orders they received at the same time. Nice to see it is still flying off the shelves. It was worth the wait.

I'm halfway through my copy, and I think it's dynamite reading, and really damning to John Kerry!

War Woof!

Just heard John O'Neill on the Dennis Prager show and he said that there are 850,000 copies now in print.

All royalties going to Navy & Marine Corps Relief Society.

Go, Swifts!

Congrats on #1.

This is the only time I will ever make this comment about a book that I enjoyed: I had to keep putting it down because every page was upsetting.

I just finished the book today,a most excellent read.I was always Suspicious of John Kerry and now having read Unfit for Command I am doubly sure that John Kerry should never be elected to the White House

I use Audible.com, and they must be completely run by liberals, as they usually don't stock many conservative books (though I have found a few!) No sign of Unfit there!


Just a note, I just popped on audible.com and Unfit for Command is now available for those that wish to download it (not sure when they made it available)
