My clown of a cousin claims Kerry is a traitor.
He backed it up with an email today. The email contained a link to the well known and highly regarded news site world net daily :puke:
Well, folks, here's the bullcrap. Try not to barf too much.

1. The photo:
Edited on Thu Jun-03-04 11:17 AM by demnan
"The snapshot of the display, which depicts a July 1993 meeting"

Note the date. By that time Kerry was a Senator going to Vietnam to push for POW/MIA information.

This shit really burns me up. Anybody questioning Kerry's motives here is a super shit head.

on edit: I didn't mean to imply that you agreed with this when you posted it. It just makes me mad beyond all sense.

3. I guess your clown of a cousin thinks the same of John McCain, then
I believe that McCain was also present on that trip -- it was felt important to have not only a bipartisan presence, but two Vietnam veterans as well.

6. By those standards, all viet nam vets are traitors.
That seems to be the position of the gop on kerry and his service record.

7. Response to cousin
It's a shame that you hate America and its vetrans so much as to spread such blatent lies. If you are against John Kerry and John McCain's trying to bring home our MIA/POWs it is YOU who are a traitor to this great nation.

11. Ask your cousin what his opinion is of...
...A family of liars and thieves whose proven history of treason against this country can be traced back nearly a century and involves Hitler, drug smuggling, the JFK assassination, Watergate, Iran Contra, the creation of AL Qaeda (as a CIA tool) and very suspicious behavior in regards to 9-11-01.

I don't think a Vietnam war protest or two can compete with all of that.

12. I Love These Responses...
I first thought the Rummy photo...sure enough, there it was...

Then thought Kerry was there to get POW/MIA info and his work, along with McCain's, opened up the countryside so that we could begin the search (still ongoing) for remains. These men did more to heal the wounds of war, those who catigate Kerry for this photo deserve to be shouted down for their total disgregard for Vietnam veterans, their families and those currently in the military.

Seems like your cuz needs to get some fresh air. Show him a different light. I get the sense he's "rebelling" on your uncle and aunt and probably works in a kool-aid factory. He needs a nice dinner, maybe a good movie and a few drinks. Let's see how he feels then.

These attacks on Kerry are backfiring big time. I posted earlier about my Vietnam Vet friend who has become a Kerry supporter, as have others in his VFW lodge. He's pissed at the trashing McCain got from Hastert and how anyone can question Kerry's service or medals. He knows what a silver star means. He knows you what it takes to earn it. He also knows what it means to take that hard-earned medal (and the blood of your brothers on it) and throw it away in disgust. That message wasn't lost on him then and still isn't now.

Here's hoping your cousin sees the light. Or take him drinking the night before the election :evil grin:

15. That photo is from 1993. Didn't Kerry work on locating Vietnam MIAs?
No, I am sure that Kerry did NOT visit w/the enemy regarding his anti-Vietnam War stance. The photo says it was taken in 1993. I am sure that I've read that Kerry worked vigorously on the Vietnam MIA issue, so he may have met w/some leaders in that regard in the 1990s, as did other congresspeople.

Would a photo of Bush w/the N. Korean leader mean he's collaberating w/him, or tending to governmental business?
