| Don’t know where this was taken but here’s a picture of Jane Fonda and a former antiwar associate of hers. |

| #5 Who cares about Kerry's war record? The only record that matters at this point is his post-war mugging for the press along with his buddy Hanoi Jane, who committed an act of treason by sitting atop an S-60 gun and posing for camera thus being used for propaganda purposes by a military enemy of the USA, against the Viet Nam war. As long as the left wing of the democrats embraces this mugwump, the right will get a target so easy to wreck, it will be an added bonus to thoroughly discredit the socialists of the 60s who are trying to gain power. Go Kerry! Tell us more!! |

| #4 My service certainly was not as distinguished as Sen Kerry's. My ship spent Desert Storm in a rat infested shipyard in Norfolk. That said, I have trouble buying his Captain America shtick. I read an excerpt from his book in the Atlantic Monthly. In his writing there is a strong aroma of punk JO that has chosen the life on a destroyer as a safe but boring way to ride out the war while keeping all avenues open to his greatness. He seems to have picked the swift boats as a way to be his own boss, tool around like JFK and be able to get drunk when the boat is parked. He seemed quite surprised and angered that the mission of his swift boat was changed to more dangerous duty. He caught some flak, got some bandaids and express-mailed his request for reassignment as soon as he got winged the third time. In contrast while I was at USNA, RADM Stephen Chadwick (Navy of Steve?) served as Commendant of Midshipment. He was set for his third tour in the brown water navy - at hisown request, when we pulled out. Some men actually believed in their country and considered not letting South Vietnam become a pit of agony to be a worthwhile mission. To each his own. As for Bush's bravery, can anybody think of any more dangerous service than to be a part-time jet pilot with a drinking problem. I rest my case. |

| #3 I've been talking to my 17 year old son about Kerry lately and he has now been looking for things on the net concerning Kerry. He's going to send the text of Kerry's 70s speech to everyone he knows. Unfortunately, he won't be able to vote in November because his birthday is two weeks later. His grandfather was in vietnam and absolutely hates Kerry. Even his democrat father (my ex) doesn't like him. Hannity and Colmes are looking at his antiwar record now. friend of Kerry's was stammering and trying to dispel the notion that Kerry was a buddy of Hanoi Jane. |
