Remember how nasty the Pukes were to John Kerry?
The Swiftboat liars, the little purple bandaids they wore at the convention to trivialize the wounds he got during military service in Vietnam?

So yes, a lot of the opposition to Obama is racist, but remembering how hateful they were during 2004 shows that many of them just despise all Democrats.

3. That picture has always pissed me off to no end. That woman and others like her
were content to smear and slander a man who had truly served his country in a combat situation while they heaped adoration on a drug addled, dry drunk who couldn't even prove that he had fulfilled his ANG duties.

7. She no doubt has tea bags suspended from that hat now.
I wouldn't be surprised if she's a birfer.

8. You said it perfectly.
And not only did John Kerry volunteer to serve, he figured out what was going on and when he came home he tried to persuage the people in power that the war was wrong. It doesn't get any more patriotic than that.

5. Seriously, every time I see this photo...
...I want to smack her across the face so hard her dentures come flying out and (preferably) shatter when they hit the ground.

These assholes talk about "supporting the troops", then turn around and smear someone who served honorably and who earned his medals. It never occurs to them that by demeaning one person's medals, they have demeaned all medals. Because they are claiming that the military did not know what it was doing when it awarded medals to John Kerry. Well if we believe that, then why should we believe that the military knew what it was doing when it awarded other medals?

Hopefully that sow has some inkling of how hated she is.

She is not fit to lick John Kerry's boots.

4. They are threatened by those who dare to challenge the status quo...
They want a tough man in charge ~ and a hateful God to worship. It makes them feel safe.

6. I'll never forget that woman with the purple heart bandaid.
It was one of the most offensive things I've ever seen.
