1. Another Vets Group Exposes Kerry's 'Stolen Honor'

A new documentary will soon be released that may do more damage to John Kerry than even the devastating Swift Boat Veterans' ad.

It's called "Stolen Honor" -- and remember, you heard it here first.

The documentary, just weeks from release, details what his Vietnam critics say was John Kerry's betrayal of America.

In a description of the new film, the producers explain that "when John Kerry appeared before the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee in the spring of 1971, his testimony sent shock waves throughout America and the world. ... Lt. Kerry's widely televised statements were dramatic and persuasive, made all the more credible by the fact he had been there, said he had witnessed many of these same atrocities."

The info sheet on the film continues:

"That single act earned for Kerry the lasting enmity of Vietnam veterans, especially those who had borne the brunt of his accusations, that small percentage of soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen who actually served on the frontlines. Many of these combat veterans would carry the scars of their service for life. Kerry's repudiation of their sacrifice represented yet another war wound, one that would never heal. As compelling as Kerry's Senate testimony was, these men knew it was lacking in one key element ... truth. They knew from their own combat experiences virtually all his allegations were lies; the U.S. military would never countenance such brutality. And, they also knew his actions were a deliberate betrayal of all of them, especially the more than 58,000 who lost their lives in the Vietnam War.

"But, perhaps, more than any living group of combat veterans, it was America's POWs who suffered most, forced to endure the immediate consequences of Kerry's treacherous falsehoods. In 1971, some 700 of these men were reported as captured or missing in action, most presumed held prisoner by the North Vietnamese Communists in such places as the notorious Hanoi Hilton. Already subjected to years of torture, solitary confinement and unspeakable psychological and physical abuse, their lives were literally hanging by a thread when Kerry issued his damning testimony. In mere moments, Kerry had willingly given the Vietnamese Communists what they had spent years of torture and blood-letting to drag out of their American hostages, an unqualified 'confession' they were all war criminals."

"Stolen Honor" is being produced by Red, White and Blue Productions, Inc., an independent producer of documentaries based in Harrisburg, Pa. Carlton Sherwood, president of Red, White and Blue Productions, is a longtime newspaper and TV investigative reporter. A Pulitzer Prize and Peabody Award winner, Sherwood has investigated how the behavior of John Kerry as a leader of the anti-war movement during the Vietnam era impacted American POWs.

The results are shocking and no doubt will ignite a new wave of controversy in this year's already overheated political race.

Editor's Note: The book by B.G. Burkett "Stolen Valor" first blew the whistle on John Kerry's Vietnam War lies.

Credibility? If the Democrats attack a documentary which includes the testimony of a bunch of POW's then let them seal their doom.

I know one of the POW's in the documentary recieved the Medal of Honor. You just can't attack that type of indiviual.

I posted this on my local ISP's message board which I've been in battle since the SBV't ad started. I'm all for you guys and what you're doing. I just posted a response that I received which was the link to this Sherwood guy.
I will use your reply as "my reply" if that's okay?

Thanks

Looking forward to seeing this when it appears. Hope it gets into the theaters, but I don't expect CNN to hype it the way CNN hyped Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit Fabrications" documentary

The article is an overall crtique of his book on Rev. Moon. While disagreeing with some of his conclusions, the article is positive in it's overall tone. There is nothing here to discredit him and the article does describe him as a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist.

One may question his support of the Moonies, but not the testamony of the POW's. They each have compelling, riviting stories to tell.

In 1996, Adm. Boorda committed suicide after he was accused of wearing medals he hadn't earned.

At the time, Sen. Kerry told the Boston Herald that the error was "sufficient to question his leadership position."

"If you wind up being less than what you're pretending to be, there is a major confrontation with value, self-esteem and your sense of how others view you," Kerry told the Boston Globe

YA JUST CAN'T MAKE THIS STUFF UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too bad there isn't a group called "Medal of Honor Winners For Truth".
