13. John Forbes Kerry was sleeping on Lexington Green in

Lexington, Massachusetts, with some Vietnam War resisters and protesters including some ex-Nam veterans. They were not loud. They were not doing anything other than sleeping and being orderly. The Lexington cops cleared the Lexington Green in the wee hours of the morning. As I remember it, it was around 5:00 AM or slightly before that time.

And, yes, Lexington Green is the very same real estate of historic fame (the "shot heard 'round the world" and the commencement of the American Revolutionary War), which is why Kerry and the others chose this area in the first instance.

They were arrested and held for a very short time. End of story. Btw, this was common during the War protesting times. Very common. There is nothing unusual about any of this. Nada. Zed. Zero.

edited to add: and there was NO flag burning. none that I recall.

5. I bet that footage isn't as hard to find...

as some quality 1971 clips of * throwing up on something.

6. The '92 Bush campaign tried to do this as well

They even sent an aide to Oxford, England to search hours of old film reels trying to find footage of Bill Clinton buring the flag. They had the assistance of John Major's Tories, but still could find nothing.

7. In my opinion---

it does not exist. Kerry has run for office many times. This would mean that none of his opponents ever found this footage? You know they would have done their best to discredit him. Yet--people have always attacked his record--and he has come through unscathed. So I do NOT believe it exists.

But IF it does (which I doubt) I do not think it will sink Kerry. Obviously this is so far in the past--why would anyone care?

You have gotten my curiosity up though. I may have to put my bio hazard suit and go read what they are saying.

9. What a paltry surprise.

I would be shocked if Kerry ever burned a flag. He had a very strong awareness of his future.

11. WHO CARES!!!

This is a non-issue. The freeps will go wild over something like this the same way we went wild over Bush's bumbling drunk video. Red meat for the faithful but won't have legs beyond that.

12. No

There is NO CHANCE in hell the GOP is sitting on authentic pictures or video damaging to Kerry.

If it does pop up, we'll know why they waited so long to show us: creating authentic-looking footage from the 1960s is hard work! }(

14. Lexington Green was in 1971, not in the 1960s.
