True to Form, Kerry Undermines Our Fighting Forces <font color=red>Its 1971 all over again. "Wrong war, wrong place, wrong time". These words could easily have been Kerry's jingle back then. He's now decided that he wouldn't have invaded Iraq as president after all, despite earlier statements saying he would.</font> John Kerry underestimated the seething opposition to his candidacy by Vietnam veterans who felt betrayed and maligned by Mr. Kerry in 1971. It seems that there is a Groupe De Jour that is organizing to oppose his candidacy. No small wonder. His words and actions betrayed the tens of thousands who died and the hundreds of thousands who, to this day, carry the physical and emotional scars of that difficult war. The angry truth of Vietnam is that we fought gallantly and honorably, winning every major battle of the war. We simply lost the political will to continue. John Kerry owns a key piece of that political defeat. And what was the result of our withdrawal? The North Vietnamese killed more of their own people and their neighbors in Cambodia than were killed in the entire time we were there. The images of desperate people clinging to departing helicopters and to wooden rafts in the South China Sea should haunt the conscience of the "peace movement". But did the "peace movement" mount their angry cries of protest against the butchery of the North Vietnamese? Their eery silence screams of their hypocrisy. John Kerry betrayed our own military, as well as the people of Southeast Asia. What was his response to this? To run for congress, of course. Now after some 20 years in the United States Senate, where he his lackluster career is only highlighted by consistent votes against the interests of the American soldier, he is once again spitting on the graves of our heroic soldiers, this time in Iraq. While our casualties are only about 2% of what they were in Vietnam, he is ready to pull the plug on yet another group of freedom-seeking people. To John Kerry I respond, "Wrong ideas, wrong message, wrong man". freerepublic.com
