Vietnam Veteran Exposes Kerry's 'Phony' Anti-war Testimony
More and more facts are surfacing about the untrue
claims John Kerry made as an anti-war activist after returning as a hero
from Vietnam.
"Unfortunately, Mr. Kerry came home to Massachusetts, the one state George
McGovern carried in 1972. He joined the Vietnam Veterans Against the War and
emceed the Winter Soldier Investigation (both financed by Jane Fonda)," Stephen
Sherman, who was a first lieutenant with the U.S. Army Fifth Special Forces
Group (Airborne) in Vietnam in 1967-68, writes in today's Wall Street Journal.
"Many veterans believe these protests led to more American deaths, and to the
enslavement of the people on whose behalf the protests were ostensibly being
undertaken. But being a take-charge kind of guy, Mr. Kerry became a leader in
the VVAW and even testified before Congress on the findings of the
Investigation, which he accepted at face value.
"In his book 'Stolen Valor,' B.G. Burkett points out that Mr. Kerry liberally
used phony veterans to testify to atrocities they could not possibly have
committed. ...
"Mr. Kerry hasn't given me any reason to trust his judgment. As co-chairman
of the Senate investigating committee, he quashed a revealing inquiry into the
POW/MIA issue, and he supports trade initiatives with the Socialist Republic of
Vietnam while blocking any legislation requiring Hanoi to adhere to basic human
rights. ...
"Just as Mr. Kerry threw away medals only to claim them back again, Sen.
Kerry voted to take action against Iraq, but claims to take that vote back by
voting against funding the result. So I can understand my former comrade-in-arms
hugging the man who saved his life, but not the act of choosing him for
president out of gratitude. And I would hate to see anyone giving Mr. Kerry a
sympathy vote for president just because being a Vietnam veteran is 'back in
style,'" Sherman concludes.
Yvonne: Will I see you tonight? Rick Blaine: I never make plans that far ahead.
