I doubt anyone is foolish enough to relate a personal incident from Vietnam, regarding Kerry's bad conduct. It would immediately be pounced on as a "fabrication" and dirty politics... No, I think his record, or lack of one that is real, will speak for Mr. Kerry.... _________________ TRUST MUST BE EARNED. JOHN KERRY HAS A ZERO BALANCE IN HIS TRUST ACCOUNT.... |

I'm not old enough to have served in Vietnam but I did work in the POW/MIA office 1994-1998. I was the Intelligence Analyst and executive liasion for Senator Kerry and other Commisioners. I interacted with his office on a weekly basis for four years. I say, "interacted" because he didn't want to be bothered with POW/MIAs issues. I personally saw and worked with Senator Smith NH, Congressman Pete Peterson FL, Congressman Sam Johnson TX, Denis Clift - President of Joint Military Intelligence College, National Archives and many many other government organization on a weekly basis. But not Kerry - he and Bill Clinton didn't care about the issue. I was sickened by the Democratic Convention speech by Clinton giving Kerry credit for working the POW/MIA issue - I was there - I worked that mission for four years - Kerry DID NOT work the issue or say, "send me". blaaaahhhhh I'm getting ill all over again. _________________ Working with Senator Kerry four years in the POW/MIA Office left me thinking -- when did the man ever do any work? |

To me your observations over 4 years tell me a lot more about the man than anyone who only knew him for less than 4 months on his boat could.
Of course, those 4 years of observations won't satisfy "Greatful American" who wants info from THE boat. |
