ProLife, the press is getting bombarded by folks who are demanding a jobs plan from Bush and his campaign team. YOur posts are non sense in that who cares if Kerry in his Vietnam years posed with Jane Fonda or not. There are many who may have done the same and hence would not care for that. I mean if Bush is in there even though he was an alcoholic, you think Jane Fonda thing would be an issue? Here we have American lives lost and being lost on a war that was not necessary (Iraq war) since there was no WMD, no Al Qaeda link etc. This is a dangerous President who if re elected could bring back the draft since "he has the authority to go to war". It was Kerry who was one of them who voted to give him that authority. Kerry now wants to take that back given that Bush is abusing that authority. So let us talk about Bush since it is he who has put the lives of American soldiers in harms way for a war that was not at all necessary. Let us answer that question first and I would hope that you would cease and desist from usinf this thread as useless propaganda. To start you off right, let me end by asking you what you think about Kerry not voting on the 87 billion dollars funding for Iraq. 50 billion for the troops who have no reason to be there in the first place, and 30 billion to rebuild Iraq at a time when our States do not have funds and are running up huge deficits. WHAT ABOUT USING AMERICAN TAXPAYERS' MONEY IN AMERICA FOR A CHANGE?

Photo at this link. Veterans, Vietnamese unite to oppose Kerry While photo of candidate with Jane Fonda circulates on Internet February 10, 2004 A Vietnam veterans organization and a Vietnamese-American group have united in opposition to Democratic presidential front-runner Sen. John Kerry. "We represent hundreds of thousand of American veterans who do not want to see John Kerry anywhere near the Oval Office," said Ted Sampley, founder of Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry. Sampley is a U.S. Army Green Beret and veteran of two combat tours in Vietnam. Said Sampley: "I have personally dealt with John Kerry on the issue of U.S. POWs left behind in Vietnam. Kerry is not truthful and is not worthy of the support of U.S. veterans. Many Vietnam vets have been duped into thinking Kerry is their friend. He is not. To us, he is 'Hanoi John.'" Dan Tran is president of the Vietnam Human Rights Project and a member of Vietnamese Americans Against John Kerry. "John Kerry aided and abetted the communist government in Hanoi and has hindered any human rights progress in Vietnam," Tran said. Said the new coalition in a statement: "In the Senate, Kerry blocked the Vietnam human rights (and religious freedom) bill on behalf of Hanoi, while the Vietnamese Communists continue to wage a war of repression against the non-Communist Vietnamese and a war of genocide against our former allies the Montagnard ethnic minorities in the Central Highlands of Vietnam." The coalition plans nationwide demonstrations against Kerry beginning with the New York and Massachusetts primaries. Sampley's reference to Kerry as "Hanoi John" represents a campaign issue that could become a big problem for the Democrat. A photo on the Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry website shows anti-war activist Jane Fonda at a Valley Forge rally sitting a few feet ahead of Kerry. Jane Fonda and John Kerry, who can be seen in background directly "north" of Fonda. Radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh features the photo on his website with the caption: "The picture Democrats have been hoping nobody had: John Kerry sitting behind Jane Fonda during an anti-war rally at Valley Forge, PA in September 1970." Kerry has been roundly criticized for anti-war activities he participated in following his military service in Vietnam. A proposed bumper sticker image that encapsulates the issue is making its away around the Internet. The sticker says, "Kerry-Fonda 2004" and includes the image of a North Vietnamese flag. worldnetdaily.com
