anybody here see newsmax.com's story about john kerry and the vietnam vet at the memorial ?

[whelen36]

apparently a vietnam vet who leads " vietnam veterans against john kerry " , or something close to that , approached kerry at the memorial and asked him to leave , kerry turned around and the vet apparently opened his jacket to show a hanoi' john kerry shirt underneath. kerry in turn while in front of a group of small school children flipped the vet the finger.



and in another story , apparently several of the men who served on the boat that kerry was on in vietnam have sued him to remove the adds with thier pictures from the war in them , and several other family members from the ww2 era are threatening to sue kerry if he doesn't take down photos of soldiers in ww2 in another one of his adds targetting latino americans.

this is what i remember from reading the articles , i could've wrote some stuff down wrong so go to www.newsmax.com and go into the archives section and look under sen john kerry , and you can read for yourself first hand about it

I've been following a thread on this over at the Bowsite.

Kerry isn't Presidental material, that's for sure.

Kerry 'Flips Off' Vietnam Vet

Former Congressman John Leboutillier reports on a Memorial Day confrontation between Sen. John Kerry and a fellow Vietnam veteran:

Democratic senator - and certain presidential nominee - John F. Kerry gave the middle finger to a Vietnam veteran at the Vietnam Memorial Wall on Memorial Day morning, NewsMax.com has learned.

Ted Sampley, a former Green Beret who served two full tours in Vietnam, spotted Kerry and his Secret Service detail at about 9:00 a.m. Monday morning at the Wall. Sampley walked up to Kerry, extended his hand and said, "Senator, I am Ted Sampley, the head of Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry, and I am here to escort you away from the Wall because you do not belong here."

At that point a Secret Service officer told Sampley to back away from Kerry. Sampley moved about 6 feet away and opened his jacket to reveal a HANOI JOHN T-shirt.

Kerry then began talking to a group of schoolchildren. Sampley then showed the T-shirt to the children and said, "Kerry does not belong at the Wall because he betrayed the brave soldiers who fought in Vietnam."

Just then Kerry - in front of the school children, other visitors and Secret Service agents - brazenly 'flashed the bird' at Sampley and then yelled out to everyone, "Sampley is a felon!"

Kerry was referring to an incident 12 years ago when Sampley confronted Sen. John McCain's chief aide, Mark Salter, in a Senate stairwell after McCain repeatedly offended POW families at a Senate POW hearing. Sampley, whose father-in-law at that time was MIA in Laos, followed Salter into the stairwell and, when they emerged, Salter had a bloody lip and a broken nose.

Sampley's group, Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry, has garnered huge national attention and has been featured in the New York Times, the Washington Post and on MSNBC's "Scarborough Country." Tens of thousands of Vietnam vets have registered their opposition to Kerry through Sampley's group

Don't let F4yg and his "we"club read that. You be branded as a un-patriotic,liberal,gun grabbing weenie.

I'm stuck right now. I know I'm not going to vote for kerry, I know "WE" don't believe this. When I think about GWB it doesn't instill alot of confidence.
