[Score: SwiftVets: 3, Kerry: 0]

Well everyone lets take out our score cards and game programs, the John Kerry Viet Nam game is getting interesting to say the least.
Here is what we have found so far:
1. Kerry was not in Cambodia on Christmas day and never was for that matter. John “The Liar” Hurley’s contentions that Kerry was in Cambodia not at Christmas 1968 but was a few times in January 1969 transporting Special Forces and/or CIA agents have now also been debunked.
2. Kerry’s claim that during the March 13, 1969 stayed around helping the other boats salvaging the crew from boat # 3 has also been retracted by the Kerry Campaign and confirms what the SwiftVets have said all along. He took off.
3. Now this one is the best. Hurley was on Fox News yesterday being interviewed by Major Garrett. When asked about the First Purple Heart, here is what he said:
"Is it possible that Kerry's first Purple Heart was the result of an unintentionally self- inflicted wound?" asked reporter Major Garrett.
"Anything is possible," Mr. Hurley replied. Mr. Garrett asked the question because the first Purple Heart awarded to Kerry was on December 2, 1968 for a minor splinter wound. The problem is that Kerry wrote on his journal on December 11, 1968 that as of that day he hadn’t been shot at yet.
The Defense Department awards Purple Hearts only when one is wounded while under enemy fire. Since by Kerry’s own journal he had not been under enemy fire as of December 11, the first Purple Heart was bogus and a fraudulent act.
I suppose that Kerry believed that Purple Hearts were awarded indiscriminately to little boys playing with grenades. What puzzles me is that when Kerry approached his Commanding Officer to sign his request for the Purple Heart, after seeing the medical report and the extent of the wound covered by a band-aid, the Commanding Officer told Kerry to get lost. So how did Kerry finagled the paper work to get the medal awarded? Who did he go to? What did he report about the incident? Only Kerry’s records could tell us.
As Mr. O’Neill has said, if Kerry’s Purple Hearts are fraudulent and he left Viet Nam after only 4 months after collecting 3, he therefore owes 200 some odd days of duty to the NAVY.
Already responsible for laying 2 eggs, it amazes me that Kerry still sends out Hurley to defend him. I am starting to think that Hurley is working for Hillary.
SCORE:
SwiftVets: 3, Kerry: 0 |
