Kerry and the terrorists Posted: November 1, 2004 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2004 WorldNetDaily.com John Kerry says he will hunt down terrorists with the same energy he used to pursue the Viet Cong. "With the same energy ... I put into going after the Viet Cong and trying to win for our country, I pledge to you I will hunt down and capture or kill the terrorists before they harm us," Kerry said. "And we will wage a war on terror that makes America proud and brings the world to our side." That would be a pretty funny line if it weren't distinctly possible that Kerry could actually win tomorrow's presidential election. Why is it funny? If they know anything about the way John Kerry conducted himself in Vietnam and afterward, Osama bin Laden and Islamic terrorists are praying to Allah to bring him victory. Kerry's claim to combat fame in Vietnam is shooting in the back an unarmed, wounded member of the Viet Cong – some eyewitnesses say he was a young teenager. He won medals for this heroic deed – because he, John Kerry, wrote up the after-action reports. But while the war was still being waged and brave Americans were risking their lives in ways Kerry never imagined, he came home and championed the Viet Cong cause. He became the Vietnamese Communists' secret weapon. He became their fifth column right here in the United States. He became their tool. That's the shocking story discovered buried in military archives in Lubbock, Texas, last week by members of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, who have tried to share this vital information with the American people and received little help from a Kerry-supporting media elite. Kerry not only met twice with the leaders of the Viet Cong and North Vietnamese delegations in Paris in 1971, he actively took their directions for fomenting protests in the United States. In other words, he turned. He flipped. He went over the hill. He joined the enemy. It wasn't that Kerry just did things that pleased the enemy. He took their cues. He did their bidding. He earned that place of prominence on the wall of the "War Crimes Museum" in Hanoi. John Kerry was a war hero all right – for the Viet Cong. And now, incredibly, Kerry is citing once again his Vietnam "heroics" as the basis for his resume to lead the war against Islamic terrorists. I haven't been this shocked by something Kerry said since his "reporting for duty" convention speech. Of all the things John Kerry could say, why does he keep bringing up Vietnam? He can't help himself – because Kerry hasn't changed since 1971. He's the same guy today that he was then – a little richer, a little grayer, but just as treacherous, just as conniving, just as ambitious, just as un-American. And that's why it's not so funny that Kerry has made this little joke. Perhaps he is sending a message around the world to America's enemies once again. Bin Laden knows what Kerry did in 1971. All of America's enemies know his importance in history is not as a warrior chasing down semi-naked youngsters in black pajamas. His real significance is the damage he did to America's morale at a trying time in history. His real significance is the boost he gave America's enemies in 1971. His real significance is getting away with that kind of treason against his country and leveraging the fame it brought him into a viable presidential candidacy 33 years later. Tomorrow it's time to turn Kerry into a footnote in American history. Tomorrow it's time to let Kerry know you remember. Tomorrow it's time to sentence him to political oblivion for the crime of treason. Tomorrow it's time put the specter of John Kerry behind us once and for all. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- RELATED OFFER: Are you ready for the Second American Revolution?

oh yes you did. Here is the real release. Misleading Calls Made to Michigan Voters Monday November 1, 2004 11:01 PM By KATHY BARKS HOFFMAN Associated Press Writer LANSING, Mich. (AP) - Some Michigan voters have received phone calls falsely claiming that Sen. John Kerry would make gay marriage legal. In New Jersey, some voters have heard a man claiming to be former Army Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf backing the Democrat. Republicans and Democrats were furious Monday about the blatantly false, 11th-hour political calls to voters and demanded an end to the messages. Schwarzkopf has endorsed Bush, but in a recording of a phone call played for The Associated Press, a man identifying himself as the Persian Gulf War general says, ``In 2000, I voted for George W. Bush, but this year I'm voting for John Kerry. ... John Kerry has a real plan to make our military stronger and to go after terrorists wherever they hide. We need a vote for change, vote for John Kerry.'' A voice says the message was paid for by the Democratic National Committee. In a statement from the Bush campaign, Schwarzkopf said the DNC was making fraudulent phone calls claiming that he had endorsed Kerry, and ``nothing could be further from the truth, and I demand that they stop immediately. The DNC had no immediate reaction. In Michigan, in a recording of a call played for the AP, a young woman says: ``When you vote this Tuesday remember to legalize gay marriage by supporting John Kerry. We need John Kerry in order to make gay marriage legal for our city. Gay marriage is a right we all want. It's a basic Democrat principle. It's time to move forward and be progressive. Without John Kerry, George Bush will stop gay marriage. That's why we need Kerry. So Tuesday, stand up for gay marriage by supporting John Kerry.'' Both Kerry and his running mate, Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, oppose gay marriage and say marriage should be limited to a man and a woman. Kerry has said he supports civil unions. The calls began Sunday afternoon, according to Rodell Mollineau, spokesman for Kerry's Michigan campaign. The campaign said voters in Detroit, Grand Rapids, Flint and Pontiac received calls. ``We're shocked and pretty much appalled that Republicans would sink to this in the last 48 hours of the campaign,'' Mollineau said. Michigan Republican Party executive director Greg McNeilly said recorded phone calls have been made by former Michigan football coach Bo Schembechler and by President Bush to Michigan voters, but he didn't know anything about the calls described by the Kerry campaign. GOP officials, meanwhile, have been getting reports of phone calls being made by a person who says he's representing the Bush campaign, and then unlooses a string of swear words. Another phone call is said to tell voters they've been drafted for military service because Bush needs them for the war in Iraq. ``There are so many reports of phone calls going on right now that appear to be untoward,'' McNeilly said. ^--- Associated Press Writer Donna De La Cruz in Trenton, N.J., contributed to this report. ^--- On the Net: Kerry-Edwards: johnkerry.com Bush-Cheney: georgewbush.com
