"Why do most Vietnam Vets say NO to John Kerry?

§ Yes, Kerry served in Vietnam, but do you know how he gave aid and comfort to the enemy when he returned to the US?

1. Kerry joined the radical left of the anti-war movement and worked with Jane Fonda. Many good people opposed the war, but these radicals were advocates of our enemy.

2. Kerry launched his political career with false testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in 1971 saying American soldiers in Vietnam were “. . . a generation of monsters. . . “ who raped, tortured, murdered and ravaged the countryside like Genghis Kahn. It was an outrageous lie.

3. Kerry said he was ashamed of his Vietnam service. He dishonored his decorations by throwing them over a fence labeled “Trash” on camera at a Washington, DC protest. He now says he is proud of his
service and his decorations.

4. Kerry met with our enemy’s negotiator in Paris in 1970, Madam Nguyen Thi Binh, in violation of US law while hostilities were ongoing and while the US Secretary of State was attempting to open negotiations. Kerry returned to the US and publicly advocated the enemy’s proposal of unilateral US withdrawal before negotiating the return of our POWs, contrary to the US govt’s position.

5. American POWs heard Kerry’s 1971 false testimony quoted to them during interrogation sessions as their captors pressured them to confess to war crimes they did not commit.

6. Kerry is prominently represented in Communist Vietnam’s war museum in gratitude for his help in their victory over the US.

7. In June 2004, the official Communist newspaper accused the US of a pattern of inhumane war crimes, citing the 1971 testimony of John Kerry and the Iraq prisoner abuse scandal: “ . . like in any of the dozens of countries they invaded, it was the Americans who perpetrated well-documented atrocities in Vietnam, both at the individual and mass levels." Their article shows a photo of our POWs playing
volleyball and claim they were treated well. The opposite is the truth.

8. 20 of the 22 Naval officers who served with Kerry consider him unfit for office.

§ So - John Kerry betrayed the men and women who fought in Vietnam long ago.What does it matter to young voters today?

1. Kerry is rated the most liberal out of all 100 US Senators by the nonpartisan National Journal. He is further left than Ted Kennedy, yet Kerry claims to have conservative values to get your vote.

2. Kerry says he is strong on defense. Yet Kerry has voted against most military pay raises, voted against new housing for our troops and their families, and as far back as 1994 Kerry voted to practically "gut" defense and spending for intelligence. Kerry voted against the B-1 Bomber, the B-2 Stealth Bomber, the F-14, the F-15, the F-16, the AV-8B Harrier Vertical Takeoff and Landing Jet Fighter, the AH-64 Apache Helicopter, the Patriot Missile, the Aegis Air Defense Cruiser, the Trident Missile System for U.S. Submarines, the M-1 Abrams Tank, the Bradley Fighting Vehicle and the Tomahawk Cruise Missile. Fortunately others voted yes and these weapon systems are now crucial to the superior edge of our armed forces.

3. Year after year, decade after decade, John Kerry has proven he will say and do anything to buy your vote.
