John Kerry (who was in Vietnam), held a press conference and he refused to apologize for his statements indicating that people who do not get an education end up in Iraq. I did not see the conference but those who did said he flipped his lid and that he is appealing to the left wing nut jobs who are anti war. Looks like he is getting a tune up for the 2008 presidential race. Here is the text of his conference:
“If anyone thinks a veteran would criticize the more than 140,000 heroes serving in Iraq and not the president who got us stuck there, they’re crazy. This is the classic G.O.P. playbook. I’m sick and tired of these despicable Republican attacks that always seem to come from those who never can be found to serve in war, but love to attack those who did.
I’m not going to be lectured by a stuffed suit White House mouthpiece standing behind a podium, or doughy Rush Limbaugh, who no doubt today will take a break from belittling Michael J. Fox’s Parkinson’s disease to start lying about me just as they have lied about Iraq. It disgusts me that these Republican hacks, who have never worn the uniform of our country lie and distort so blatantly and carelessly about those who have.
The people who owe our troops an apology are George W. Bush and Dick Cheney who misled America into war and have given us a Katrina foreign policy that has betrayed our ideals, killed and maimed our soldiers, and widened the terrorist threat instead of defeating it. These Republicans are afraid to debate veterans who live and breathe the concerns of our troops, not the empty slogans of an Administration that sent our brave troops to war without body armor.
Bottom line, these Republicans want to debate straw men because they’re afraid to debate real men. And this time it won’t work because we’re going to stay in their face with the truth and deny them even a sliver of light for their distortions. No Democrat will be bullied by an administration that has a cut and run policy in Afghanistan and a stand still and lose strategy in Iraq.”
No, John? Well how about you get lectured by this veteran who served about 20 years longer than you did? You are a despicable waste of flesh and should be removed from the gene pool. You criticize without ever having a “plan” and this time you attacked the men and women in the military. For you to say that people who think you, the mighty war veteran, would not criticize our heroes, just the president, is a laughable bunch of crap. You criticized veterans in the Vietnam war and compared them to “Jen-Jis” Khan. You continually talked badly about our heroes serving in that conflict and then you criticized the troops in this war. You are the one who said our soldiers are knocking down doors in the middle of the night and TERRORIZING Iraqis. Yes you Mr. war hero who would not criticize one of our REAL heroes.
You are a lying, conniving POS who does not deserve to be in the Senate because you committed treason and you should have been shot for that. You sir, are the stuffed suit who crawls out from under a rock to bloviate and spew vile crap about our men and women. You are not fit to shine their boots or even mention them. You are not worthy of the protection they give you you slimy gutter dweller.
You mention real men John. Any time you want to tangle whether it is in discussion or in a ring, you let me know and I will enlighten you on the subject of real men. You are a sorry bastard. Got any complaints, dial 1-800 go to hell.
