Kerry's ol' crewmates giving him bearhugs. Says it all for me

[fishnfla]

The one dude saying he'd serve one last swift boat mission to hell with Kerry as commander. Mail it in brothers, sing it!

Fuckin'A, its time to kick that AWOL POS out of our White House

[DoYouEverWonder]

1. Here's a nice pic

of Kerry and his crew.




Bet you'll never a picture like this of W, with his old buddies from the NG. It's hard to make friends, if you never show up.

[Tansy_Gold]

2. "It's hard to make friends, if you never show up." Great Line!

:thumbsup:

:yourock:

[JohnKleeb]

4. hah did Kerry say that? he slams pretty well actually

[DoYouEverWonder]

8. No

I came up with it myself. Thanks.

[JohnKleeb]

20. heh sorry it sounded like something Kerry would say

np it was good.

[progressivebydesign]

3. Where did you find that photo and/or story?

I'd LOVE to see it!!! WIll the mainstream media feature that???

[fishnfla]

7. Caliphoto-it was on NPR, 5 pm est report

Kerry arriving in Boston,look for it tonight.

[DoYouEverWonder]

9. It's going around the wire services

Kerry arrived in Boston today, by boat with his old crew.

Here's another nice picture from the event.

[fishnfla]

10. Caption that: "mission accomplished"

[kwolf68]

12. That's a real hug

You can tell...Kerry and his crewmate obviously have some emotion for what they experienced in Vietnam.

Why the **** won't the goddamn right-wing Nazi clan say GOD BLESS TO THOSE MEN?

Ahhh, because they aren't Conservatives.

13. A bit more grey

but just as gritty. Forget the politics of appearance, this man can do the job. I am not as young and fast as I used to be, but I'd cover this guys back any day.

[faithnotgreed]

15. thank you tech! welcome to du

[fishnfla]

22. this is the real deal, man

sure one could be cynical and call it a photo-op, but his brothers-in-arms wanted to be there, they have seen his mettle. They would no doubt walk thru fire for him. While the press whines that america does not "know" Kerry

Like I said, convention be damned,take a look at this, says it all for me.

Welcome to DU, tech

[tech3149]

25. thx for the welcome

We all know that politics has been co-opted by PR, but anyone can feel the honesty and emotion present.
To borrow frome "Dave", I'd take a bullet for you any day!

[fishnfla]

6. Thanks for that

I did not see about it, heard a radio report. In my minds eye, and in my heart of hearts, I'm thinking: this is very special.

There is no way shrub nor a legion of chickenhawk GOPers can deny this: We're gonna have us a bona-fide Viet-nam vet in the WH. Its about time, IMO.

[Hutzpa]

16. Now thats a beautiful pic........at least he did not jump flight ...

and left the others to burn.



:hi:

5. C'mon George... just ONE... just ONE friend

from your TANG days (and no, James Bath doesn't count)

if there was ONE, we'd have seen him by now. (did he serve AT ALL?)

[Cocoa]

24. just one

one friend with one anecdote from the good old TANG days.

[kwolf68]

11. And this is what galls me

To see Senator Kerry with those men and to think "our troops" would get so lambasted by the ring-wing hit-masters.

I guess they hate America and they hate our troops.

I wonder if they waved this many flags and "supported our troops" when President Clinton had them in Kosovo?

[GoldenOldie]

14. Georgie can't even dig up any old classmates

Ever see Georgie in photo-ops with any childhood chums, boarding school chums, college chums. Seems that Georgie had difficulty making friends even in his youth. Where are all these people that "would like to have a beer," with Georgie. I am sure some of those TANG and ANG comrades would have had a beer or a snort with him at some time during his service.

[nostamj]

17. they don't want to admit they took 'sloppy seconds'

on the whores * paid for with Poppy's $$$

they're ASHAMED of themselves

[Mika]

30. W*'s pals would have pom poms

Georgie's pals were cheerleaders.

[Bluebear]

18. Bump. Beautiful!

[Bluebear]

19. STAGED!!! It's all STAGED!!!!

I keep expecting that freeper woman from F9/11 to come out any moment.

[nostamj]

21. HEZBOLLAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[leftist.]

26. LINK!

Every time I post to a thread, the thread dies. Can someone please link me to the HEZBOLLAH thread please? Pleeeease? I'm starting to develop a complex :(

[fishnfla]

28. umm it was a caller on Randi Rhodes show

[leftist.]
