Tehrani Johnny

Some poetic whimsy...

Teherani Johnni

The gift that keeps on giving,
That’s what John Kerry is;
As long as that fool’s living,
He’ll keep us blogs in biz.
Big John’s too dumb to ever get
His big foot from his mouth;
So at ease, relax, you Swiftvets,
His campaign’s headed south.

He began his long tradition,
While still wearing Navy blue,
Of practicing sedition,
Against vets like me, like you.
As a second john in Paris,
He courted Madame Binh,
Who hooked her nail in his naris,
And sent her songbird home to sing.

And now he’s right back to it,
Lurching into media light;
Again he says he’ll do it,
So damn sure he is right.
He’ll go see Imawhackjob,
To plan how we’ll surrender,
Another stab us in the back job,
The only plan Big John can render.

They’ll fete him sure in Teheran,
Perhaps with parades and floats,
A happy, winning, waving John,
So far from those Swift boats.
His treason will put a big smile
On the face of many a Teherani,
So proud of Imawhackjob’s guile,
In creating Teherani Johnni.

The Great Pretender talks tough with Maher... about killing the President of the United States. Yeah, sure, and tell us its a joke later.

Do us a favor Johnny Boy, go for another run in '08, it would guarantee us another four years and the only thing better than kicking your ass in '04 would be to do it again in '08.

Same Shit, Different Decade

Old habits don't die. They hibernate.

Were you wondering why John Kerry would attack our Troops serving in Iraq? Wondering why he woud make false accusations, aid and abet the enemy, encourage both anti-American sentiment and additional attacks on our Troops? Wondering why he would say:

And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the–of–the historical customs, religious customs.

Well, you need only look to history and science for the answer. Remember that John Kerry launched his political career on April 23, 1971, when he attacked our Troops serving in Vietnam. Remember that he made false accusations, aided and abetted the enemy, encouraged anti-American sentiment, and directly caused the continued torture and death of an untold number of American Troops. Remember that he said:

"They told stories that at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Ghengis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country."

John Kerry has built his entire political career on such lies, he can't help it. John Kerry is a habitual liar, and as a result, he likely suffers from brain damage from a lifetime of lies:

... habitual activity (e.g., smoking, eating fatty foods, gambling, etc.) changes neural activity patterns in a specific region of the brain when habits are formed. These neural patterns created by habit can be changed or altered. But when a stimulus from the old days returns, the dormant pattern can reassert itself, according to a new study from the M.I.T., putting an individual in a neural state akin to being on autopilot... The neural patterns get established in the basal ganglia, a brain region critical to habits, addiction and procedural learning."

I'm not making excuses for the bastard, and I'm not joking either. John Kerry's neural state is on "liar autopilot." He lies, and lies, and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies and lies. And lies

Still, brain damage or not, the simple fact remains that John Kerry disgraced this Country, his uniform, and his service with his politically motivated lies and false testimony concerning those brave men who fought for freedom in Vietnam.

John Kerry shamed the memory of the 58,000 brave troops whose names are etched on the Wall.

John Kerry lied and manipulated his way into a position to abandon his men in Vietnam.

John Kerry stole the bravery, the dignity and the honor of our Vietnam Veterans. He stole their hopes and dreams. He stole their future.

What John Kerry stole from our Veterans, he used as stepping stones to his own future, caring not who or what was crushed beneath his feet.

And now he is trying to do it again.

Still have presidential hopes John? Forget it. On November 2, 2004, you finally experienced a small measure of the very rejection that our Vietnam Veterans experienced as a direct result of your words and deeds in 1971. You are now known by your own words and deeds to be a fraud and a phony, a loser and a liar, a political opportunist and a traitor. On November 2, 2004, America rejected you completely by an overwhelming majority and sentenced you to a life of obscurity and humiliation. On that day, John Kerry, you finally reaped what you have sown for the last 40 years.

You are a nothing and a nobody, everywhere and anywhere, except of course, in the eyes of Bin Laden and his ilk, and of course, the citizen of Assachusetts. You will likely keep your senate seat, because Assachusetts is Assachusetts, but that's all you get John. So sit down, shut up, and collect your unearned paycheck.

For America sees your sickness, and is repulsed. Sit down and shut up John, because you should be tried for treason and receive the ultimate sentence when convicted:

I wouldn't want your eternity John and I hope hell is hot enough for you.

Yet Another Kerry Rant

Dear John:

Two hundred and eighty-seven days have passed since you promised America to sign your Form 180 and release all of the information surrounding your discharge from the United States Navy.

After making this promise to America, you then stated to the Boston Globe that had in fact signed it, and further promised that "very, very shortly, you will have a chance to see it."

You have broken these promises John.

You did not release all of the information surrounding your discharge from the United States Navy, claiming that you released what the Navy sent.

America would like to see your signed 180 John. America would like to see whether you did in fact allow for full disclosure. Show us that you checked the box for an "undeleted report of separation," John, and not the one that deletes that information.

Did you release all of your records John, or did you keep some secret?

The answer to that question seems obvious. America knows you kept the discharge secret. America knows you are lying.

Do you think we are stupid John? Come on. The Globe says the records you authorized to be released were pretty much the same ones they already had. The Navy confirmed that they had over 100 pages they could not release without your authorization.

Inquiring minds want to know, John, what type of discharge did you get, John, and how did that discharge change after Carter pardoned all draft dodgers and traitors to this country?

We want to see your records John, and you promised to release them. You also promised we could see your 180. Where is your 180?? Show it to us. Set your 180 free John!

Your failure to do so John, even after your promises, proves that you are a low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar.

We have not forgotten John, and we will not let America forget either.

You can send your own letter to The Great Pretender reminding him of his promise, and I urge you to do so.

Cao tells us of eleven Marines who, after nearly four decades, have finally come home from Vietnam despite the best efforts of John Kerry:

John Kerry did his best to turn his back on any of his brothers at arms dead or alive remaining in Vietnam, heading up a committee –the sole purpose of which was to “normalize” relations with Vietnam at the expense of all of the POWs left there.
The old adage is “no man left behind”. But Kerry betrayed everything he learned at officers training school. He sucked up to the communists then, he’s sucking up to them today.

Liar Liar

Dear John:

Two hundred and seventy-three days have passed since you promised America to sign your Form 180 and release all of the information surrounding your discharge from the United States Navy.

After making this promise to America, you then stated to the Boston Globe that had in fact signed it, and further promised that "very, very shortly, you will have a chance to see it."

You have broken these promises John.

You did not release all of the information surrounding your discharge from the United States Navy, claiming that you released what the Navy sent.

Did you release all of your records John, or did you keep some secret?

The answer to that question seems obvious. America knows you kept the discharge secret. America knows you are lying.

STFU!!!

"It will be hard for this administration, but it is essential to acknowledge that the insurgency will not be defeated unless our troop levels are drawn down, starting immediately after successful elections in December. The presence of 159,000 U.S. troops in Iraq is deterring peace efforts. Senator John F'ng Kerry

So, the only way to win is to surrender?

Tis true that Bush's second term has been more than a disappointment but, things like this remind me that no matter how bad it is, I am still grateful that John Kerry ain't in the White House.

Whose side is John Kerry on anyway? Not ours, that's for sure.

Set it Free John!

Its been two hundred and sixty days since John Kerry promised to sign his 180 and yes, that's one hundred and forty-one days longer than Kerry "served" in Vietnam.

MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?

SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will.

And yet... During an interview with the Boston Globe, Kerry was asked if he had signed Form SF 180, authorizing the Department of Defense to grant access to all his military records. And Kerry said...

"I have signed it," Kerry said. Then, he added that his staff was "still going through it" and "very, very shortly, you will have a chance to see it."

Well, I'd like to see your signed 180 John, show it to me. Show me that you allowed for full disclosure, John. Show me that you checked the box for an "undeleted report of separation," John, and not the one that deletes that information.

Did you release all of your records John, or did you keep some secret? Of course you did John, of course you did.

Yes, two hundred and sixty three days later, Kerry's 180 is still MIA and all over America a cry has gone out - a cry that has fallen on deaf ears.

Come on John. The Globe says the records you authorized to be released were pretty much the same ones they already had. The Navy said they had over 100 pages they could not release without your authorization.

Inquiring minds want to know, John, what type of discharge did you get, John, and how did that discharge change after Carter pardoned all draft dodgers and traitors to this country?

It's been one hundred thirty-seven days since you said you signed it John Kerry, one hundred thirty-two days since you said we could see it. We want to see it, John. Where is your 180?? Show it to us.

Sorry John, but you can't lie, cheat or weasel your way out of it. Why? Because, as we all know, John F. Kerry, you are a low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar.

It's been thirty-nine days since you said you signed it John Kerry, fifty-three days since you said we could see it. We want to see it, John. Where is your 180?? Show it to us.

Got news for you John, releasing your grades won't throw us off the truth trail... although it proves that you're the slacker we said you are. Still, proving you're a slacker ain't enough John, we want to prove you are low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar and we are not going to let this one go.

Sorry John, but you can't lie, cheat or weasel your way out of it. Why? Because, as we all know, John F. Kerry, you are a low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar, and a slacker. So. My vow stands. I will write that low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar every Tuesday for the rest of his lying scum sucking piece of shit life.

Free Kerry's 180 - Day 18

Its been one hundred and twenty-eight days since John Kerry promised to sign his 180 and yes, that's eight days longer than Kerry "served" in Vietnam.

MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?

SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will.

And yet... During an interview with the Boston Globe, Kerry was asked if had signed Form SF 180, authorizing the Department of Defense to grant access to all his military records. And Kerry said...

"I have signed it," Kerry said. Then, he added that his staff was "still going through it" and "very, very shortly, you will have a chance to see it."

But... where is it? It's been eighteen days since you said you signed it John Kerry, where is the 180?? Who has it? When will we see it? Alas and alas... Kerry's 180 is still MIA.

Did John Kerry sign his 180? I'll believe it when I see it.

All over America a cry has gone out - a cry that has fallen on deaf ears.

Did he sign it? Maybe. But if he did, he probably put it next to his "Plan for America" and that means we will never see it. That, or he likely used invisible ink, or he will never send the damn thing to the Navy. Why? Because, as we all know, John F. Kerry is a low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar.

So, today I sent yet another email to the low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar reminding him of his promise to America.

Free John Kerry's 180!!

Its been one hundred and twenty-one days since John Kerry promised to sign his 180.

MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?

SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will.

And suddenly... During an interview with the Boston Globe, Kerry was asked if had signed Form SF 180, authorizing the Department of Defense to grant access to all his military records. And Kerry said...

"I have signed it," Kerry said. Then, he added that his staff was "still going through it" and "very, very shortly, you will have a chance to see it."

But... where is it? It's been eleven days since you said you signed it John Kerry, where is the 180?? Who has it? When will we see it? Alas and alas... Kerry's 180 is still MIA.

Did John Kerry sign his 180? I'll believe it when I see it.

So? We are writing a bit of poetry to entertain ourselves while we wait. My bit of prose:

John Kerry, he is such a liar
I'll keep his feet to the fire
for a hero he is not
despite the medals he got
He's stuck in the honesty quagmire

and there's this from Caosblog:

Mr. Kerry, you gave us your word
Which thousands of Americans heard
On meet the press tv
Won’t you set free
The records that you have incurred?

Set that 180 free John Kerry
Before the nation gets even more scarey
You never can tell
What righwingers from hell
Can do if you don’t answer our query.

Tom sent me this:

Free your ‘180′, John Kerry!
You said you’d release it, when queried…
We will never forget!
Your word is your debt!
Forever, you can’t keep it buried!

and the one and only Trike gave us this:

Stack the wood ever higher
and keep the heat without tire
for such must be his lot
until through time he gets to rot
that wannabe-hasbeen Squire

Got a poem in ya? Send it here and I'll link you! Yes, feel free to join in the fun... and... if you are a blogger, join us in spreading the word every Tuesday, the more the merrier!!

Yes. No. Maybe.

Yup. It's Tuesday again. And you know what that means. It means today is the day we remind The Great Pretender of his January 30, 2005 promise to sign his 180.

Oh, yes, I'm the great pretender... Just laughing and gay like a clown... I seem to be what I'm not, you see...

MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?

SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will.

So! ONE HUNDRED AND FOURTEEN DAYS have passed and still, no 180. But...

Oh yes... I'm the great pretender... Pretending that I'm doing well... My need is such... I pretend too much...

From today's Boston Globe:

During an interview yesterday with Globe editorial writers and columnists, the former Democratic presidential nominee was asked if had signed Form SF 180, authorizing the Department of Defense to grant access to all his military records.

"I have signed it," Kerry said.

Yeah. Right. Sure you did John. Sure you did.

Oh-oh, yes I’m the great pretender... Adrift in a world of my own... I've played the game... But to my real shame...

"I have signed it," Kerry said. Then, he added that his staff was "still going through it" and "very, very shortly, you will have a chance to see it."

Going through it? Going through it for what? Come on John, who do you think you're kidding?

Too real is this feeling of make-believe...

After the interview, Kerry’s communications director, David Wade, was asked to clarify when Kerry signed SF 180 and when public access would be granted. Kerry drifted over to join the conversation, immediately raising the confusion level. He did not answer the question of when he signed the form or when the entire record will be made public.

Several e-mails later, Wade conveyed the following information: On Friday, May 20, Kerry obtained a copy of Form 180 and signed it. "The next step is to send it to the Navy, which will happen in the next few days. The Navy will then send out the records," e-mailed Wade. Kerry first said he would sign Form 180 when pressed by Tim Russert during a Jan. 30 appearance on "Meet the Press."

So, today I sent yet another email to the low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar reminding him of his promise to America.

My vow stands. I will write that low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar every Tuesday for the rest of his lying scum sucking piece of shit life.

I will send the low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar an email with a link to the form every Tuesday for the rest of his lying scum sucking piece of shit life.

Oh yes... I'm the great pretender...

MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?

SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will.

So! ONE HUNDRED DAYS have passed and still, no 180.

Eighty-Six days and still counting...

Yup. It's Tuesday again. and you know what that means:

On January 30, 2005, The Great Pretender once again promised to sign his 180, this time on NBC News’ Meet the Press.

MR. RUSSERT: Would you sign Form 180?

SEN. KERRY: Yes, I will.

John F. Kerry, we know who you are, we know what you are, we know where you got your game plan.

It is believed by many that during the summer of 1942, Lyndon B. Johnson perpetuated a fraud against the United States of America to obtain a Silver Star he did not deserve and that he did so to further his political career. There exists personal statements of those who were present claiming the fraud and there is factual evidence, including documentation to back up the claims of fraud.

The story of Lyndon B. Johnson and the Heckling Hare gives rise to the question, what did John F. Kerry know and when did he know it? The details of Johnson's fraud read like a script of Kerry's actions in Vietnam. Unlike Kerry, Johnson was never forced to address the discrepancies in the story of the Operation Tow-9. Kerry, in the face of a flurry of accusations of fraud, has not addressed the discrepancies either and has instead attacked the messenger, making an issue of not only the honesty and integrity of his accusers, but their motives as well.

Yes, we know what you did.

We know. And so, it is no surprise to those of us who know you that eighty-six days have passed and still, no 180.

My prediction stands: John Kerry will never sign the 180, never! Why? Because he is a low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar.

That's right, John F. Kerry is a low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar, as evidenced by this video, provided to me by my new friend Sal. Great job on the video Sal, keep up the good work!

Today I sent yet another email to the low-life scum sucking piece of shit liar reminding him of his promise to America.

Kerry had a Plan?

Once again, the rumor surfaces. Does anyone besides John Kerry remember Kerry's Plan? I don't, because I never heard it. Of course, it could be because I never did get my secret agent decoder ring, they were supposed to ship from Cambodia just in time for Christmas but alas, mine never arrived.

"I think my security proposals for the country were smack on, dead on. I think that had they started to do the things I proposed on Iraq when I proposed them, we would be far better off today. And they are, in fact, now trying to do some of the things that I proposed." - John Kerry

Reflecting on the presidential campaign, Kerry said he had proposed "a far more effective way to make America safer."

Jeepers, my memory fails me. Did The Great Pretender have a plan? What exactly was that plan anyway? Was it the plan where he first voted for the war and then voted not to fund it? Was it the plan to cut military spending after we upped the number of troops by 40,000? The Great Pretender had a plan to make us safer? I missed that plan too? Oh wait, was that part of his plan to turn over our military and our safety to the consortium of dictators known as the United Nations?

"Americans accepted that I could be the commander in chief. What they were unwilling to do was shift commanders in midstream." - John Kerry

Huh? Which Americans were those and which alternative universe do they live in? This might be funny, were it not so pathetic. I seem to recall the numbers reflected overwhelming support for George W. Bush as Commander in Chief. I seem to recall that America as a whole rejected the notion of The Great Pretender as Commander in Chief.

Will this man ever drop his delusions of grandeur?

The truth is that America accepted the fact that John Kerry is a liar and hypocrite who used the reputation of our Vietnam Veterans as stepping stones to further his political ambitions. America accepted the fact that John Kerry is not fit to be dogcatcher, but is perhaps perfectly suited to play second fiddle to the killer senator from Massachusetts.

Sign the 180 Johnny boy. Sign the 180.

(Thanks Warren, for the quotes.)

Clueless in Boston

Contributed by Alan Peters:

"The pundits have never liked me. Is it the way I look? The way I sound?" -John Kerry in first post-election interview with Newsweek.

How about the way you think? The way you act? The way you acted in the past? How about being an onion skin away from formally being a traitor? (Maybe officially were without Carter's pardon). How about the lies you tell?

Looking like "Lurch" certainly doesn't help.

Swift Justice!

Bold John sailed forth in his faux scow,
Till the Swiftees fired across his bow;
And legions of irate attorneys,
Could not defend Cambodian journeys,
Nor stories of his fabled hat,
So voters sensed they smelled a rat.
And while the networks denied them prime,
The Swiftees surely got their time.

While John screamed it was all a smear,
O’Neill came across sincere,
And forced Big John to duck the press,
To run, to hide from his specious mess.
But relentless those old Swiftee guys,
They bit, hung on, exposed his lies.
These brave old warriors once again
Stood for their country, for their kin.

They made us all look one more time
At the traitor who’d charged them with crime,
And gave false witness to their deeds
For nothing more than political needs.
It’s a smear proclaimed the New York Times
Those liars all committed crimes.
Chris Matthews raged, foamed at the mouth,
Still the turncoat’s campaign headed south.

So the Swiftboat Veterans’ charges stuck
And made poor John a sitting duck.
He had no answers, no glib replies,
To cover up his treasonous lies;
That made us think, our minds aware,
The Swiftees had some truth in there;
What if he’d faked his combat valor,
Were all those medals tinged with pallor?

Dan Rather would not pay them heed,
But still the Swiftees made John bleed.
The mainstream pundits called them liars;
But no lefty slant could staunch these fires.
The blazes that these Swiftees set
Were burning John Boy’s ass you bet;
And those Swiftboat fires just burned away
Till they fried John’s ass on election day.

Now all you heroes on that Wall
Take solace seeing Kerry fall.
This scheming pol who stained your name
Has been denied his claim to fame.
The Swiftees stood and did their best,
Denied the traitor his life’s quest.
You can rest in peace our honored kin
Your honor restored by honorable men.

Nope... No Terrorists Here II

Back in September, it was noted here how incredibly ignorant The Great Pretender is concerning the terrorists who threaten our safety and our way of life.

"Iraq was not a terrorist haven before the invasion. Iraq is now what it was not before the war, a haven for terrorists." John F. Kerry, September 24, 2004

You couldn't be more wrong John Kerry. Deroy Murdock at the NRO reminds us yet again that anyone stupid enough to believe that Saddam Hussein had no ties to terrorists or to al Qaeda in particular needs to visit Hussien and Terror on the internet. The website is adapted from a speech by Deroy Murdock on September 22 at Stanford University's Hoover Institution.

Hussien and Terror has undeniable proof that Saddam Hussein supported terrorists, providing them with, yes, safe haven, cash, diplomatic assistance, training, and even medical care.

"Iraq was not a terrorist haven before the invasion. Iraq is now what it was not before the war, a haven for terrorists." John F. Kerry, September 24, 2004

You won't be surprised to see copies of checks given to the families of Palestinian homicide bombers in Israel, as well as pictures of the terrorists and their victims.

But you may be surprised to read the words of former Italian prime minister Bettino Craxi explaining that terrorist Abu Abbas — ring leader of the October 1985 Achille Lauro cruise-ship hijacking — was freed from Italian custody because he traveled on an Iraqi diplomatic passport.

"Abu Abbas was the holder of an Iraqi diplomatic passport…The plane was on an official mission, considered covered by diplomatic immunity and extra-territorial status in the air and on the ground." Bettino Craxi, Italy’s prime minister, October 14, 1985

After escaping Italian police in October 1985 following the Achille Lauro hijacking (thanks to his Iraqi diplomatic passport), Abu Abbas finally ended up in Baghdad in 1994, where he lived comfortably as one of Saddam Hussein’s guests. U.S. soldiers caught Abbas in Iraq in April 2003. This time, he did not get away. He died last March 9, in American custody, reportedly of natural causes.

But... but... but...

"Iraq was not a terrorist haven before the invasion. Iraq is now what it was not before the war, a haven for terrorists." John F. Kerry, September 24, 2004

Visit Hussien and Terror and read about the May 7, 2003 decision by Clinton-appointed U.S. District Judge Harold Baer Jr. to award the families of two September 11 victims $104 million in damages after their attorney proved that Saddam Hussein's government provided "material support" to al Qaeda in the September 11 massacre.

"Iraq was not a terrorist haven before the invasion. Iraq is now what it was not before the war, a haven for terrorists." John F. Kerry, September 24, 2004

"Iraq was not even close to the center of the War on Terror before the president invaded it." John F. Kerry, Presidential Debate, September 30, 2004

Oh yes, John Kerry. You are wrong, very wrong, as is The Junior Achiever and Senator Killer.

"There is no connection between Saddam Hussein and the attacks of September 11th — period." John Edwards, Vice Presidential Debate, October 5, 2004

"Iraq was not a breeding ground for terrorism. Our invasion has made it one." Senator Ted Kennedy, October 16, 2003

"I never believed in the link between Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, al-Qaeda and Islamist terrorism." former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, October 21, 2003

"The evidence now shows clearly that Saddam did not want to work with Osama bin Laden at all." Al Gore, August 2003

Today, John Kerry, you and the entire Democratic Party combine to be the number one threat to America.

Arafat's Only Hope

World Net Daily reports that Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasser Arafat sits in the pile of rubble that used to be his Ramallah compound, hoping for a Kerry presidency.

It is no surprise that Arafat would prefer that Bush lose this election, after all, President Bush has backed Ariel Sharon's policies, including the isolation of Arafat due to his involvement in terrorism.

It is easy to understand why both terrorists and Europeans support Kerry when you consider Kerry's intention to coordinate American foreign policy with the EU. These countries support Arafat and they are certainly hostile to Israel.

And then, there is Kerry's appointment of Martin Indyk as an adviser. Indyk, who, as the WND puts it, "was a driving force behind Clinton's assessment of Arafat as a statesman and urged Clinton to accept Arafat as the legitimate ruler of the Palestinians." WND also points out that, "under Indyk's advisory, Arafat visited the White House during the Clinton administration 24 times, more than any other world leader during those eight years."

Will Arafat's hopes and dreams come true? Considering Kerry's fixation on the United Nations as the arbiter of international legitimacy and considering how dangerous the ramifications of his foreign policy would be for Israel, we can only hope not.

Why Won't Kerry Disclose Navy Discharge?

Thomas H. Lipscomb believes it is for a very good reason. Mr. Lipscomb has written an excellent article about The Great Pretender's Military Records, citing an official Navy document on Senator Kerry's campaign Web site listed as Mr. Kerry's "Honorable Discharge from the Reserves," and he makes some valid points and conclusions, some of which are excerpted here:

The document is a form cover letter in the name of the Carter administration's secretary of the Navy, W. Graham Claytor. It describes Mr. Kerry's discharge as being subsequent to the review of "a board of officers." This in it self is unusual. There is nothing about an ordinary honorable discharge action in the Navy that requires a review by a board of officers.

According to the secretary of the Navy's document, the "authority of reference" this board was using in considering Mr. Kerry's record was "Title 10, U.S. Code Section 1162 and 1163. "This section refers to the grounds for involuntary separation from the service. What was being reviewed, then, was Mr. Kerry's involuntary separation from the service. And it couldn't have been an honorable discharge, or there would have been no point in any review at all. The review was likely held to improve Mr. Kerry's status of discharge from a less than honorable discharge to an honorable discharge.

Mr. Lipscomb reminds us of Kerry's meeting with the enemy in 1970 and his participation in organizing a a demonstration in July of 1971.

For example, while America was still at war, Mr. Kerry had met with the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong delegation to the Paris Peace talks in May 1970 and then held a demonstration in July 1971 in Washington to try to get Congress to accept the enemy's seven point peace proposal without a single change.

And Mr. Lipscomb speaks of Eugene Debs. How many Americans know who Eugene Debs is?

Woodrow Wilson threw Eugene Debs, a former presidential candidate, in prison just for demonstrating for peace negotiations with Germany during World War I. No court overturned his imprisonment.

Eugene Debs. Former presidential candidate. Jailed. For demonstrating. Debs demonstrated. Kerry did too. Debs didn't meet with the enemy. Kerry did.

The "board of officers" review reported in the Claytor document is even more extraordinary because it came about "by direction of the President." No normal honorable discharge requires the direction of the president. The president at that time was James Carter. This adds another twist to the story of Mr. Kerry's hidden military records.

Mr. Carter's first act as president was a general amnesty for draft dodgers and other war protesters. Less than an hour after his inauguration on January 21, 1977, while still in the Capitol building, Mr. Carter signed Executive Order 4483 empowering it. By the time it became a directive from the Defense Department in March 1977 it had been expanded to include other offenders who may have had general, bad conduct, dishonorable discharges, and any other discharge or sentence with negative effect on military records. In those cases the directive outlined a procedure for appeal on a case by case basis before a board of officers. A satisfactory appeal would result in an improvement of discharge status or an honorable discharge.

Jimmy Carter. One of the worst presidents this nation ever had to suffer under.

There is one odd coincidence that gives some weight to the possibility that Mr. Kerry was dishonorably discharged. Mr. Kerry has claimed that he lost his medal certificates and that is why he asked that they be reissued. But when a dishonorable discharge is issued, all pay benefits, and allowances, and all medals and honors are revoked as well. And five months after Mr. Kerry joined the U.S. Senate in 1985, on one single day, June 4, all of Mr. Kerry's medals were reissued.

Mr. Lipscomb appears to have the answers to Kerry's refusal to release his records.

Don't you know...

In Boston, nearly everyone has heard the words "Don't you know who I am?" Those words have been used by The Great Pretender to bully his way through life in nearly every instance imaginable.

And now... as is to be expected... those words are being used by Kerry and his supporters to bully his way into the White House.

On DaySide with Linda Vester today on Fox News, Kerry Campaign spokesman Chad Clanton was discussing Sinclair Broadcasting Group plans to air "Stolen Honor," the documentary about Kerry's Vietnam war service.

Clanton stated: "They [Sinclair] better hope that we're not elected."

Vester immediately asked if that was intended as a threat to Sinclair that a Kerry administration would not renew their broadcast licenses.

Clanton tried to back off, but the threat was unmistakable.

Indeed. We know exactly who you are John Kerry and what you are as well.

Thanks Al for the tip...

Junior Achiever Lies Too

The Junior Achiever is as consistent as The Great Pretender when it comes to lying to the American public...

"I believe we can build a better life for our families, families like the family I grew up with, and communities like Seneca and Robbins, North Carolina. But it has to be based on the values of hard work and responsibility, not accounting tricks and corporate greed." -- John Edwards, Presidential Candidates Debate, Columbia, SC, 5/3/03

Talking about taxes during the Vice Presidential Debate: "To pay for the things that we believe need to be done -- We also want to close some corporate loopholes. -- John Edwards, Vice Presidential Debate, 10/05/04

But... but.... but....

"Edwards, a trial lawyer, set up a professional corporation in 1995, in which he was the sole employee and shareholder. Edwards then paid himself a salary of $ 600,000 and $ 540,000 in 1996 and 1997, according to a personal disclosure statement he was required to file with the secretary of the Senate.

At the same time he collected $5 million each year in dividends from his corporation.

Edwards was required to pay Medicare taxes on his $600,000 salary, but under this arrangement he was not required to pay Medicare taxes on his $5 million in corporate dividends.” (The [Raleigh] News & Observer, 10/14/98)

Jeepers. Edwards deliberately and intentionally defrauded the government and the health care system to avoid paying taxes on $10 million dollars. Using accounting tricks and corporate loopholes.

The Number One Threat to America

In response to the outrage and disgust at The Great Pretender's comparison of terrorism to prostitution, Kerry campaign spokesman Phil Singer said:

"The whole article is about how John Kerry recognizes that the war on terror requires a multipronged approach. It's not just the military aspect, but you need diplomacy to be able to enlist your allies. The Bush people have never understood that. John Kerry has always said that terrorism is the No. 1 threat to the U.S."

Really? Are you sure about that Phil? How about a little quote from the first debate:

Lehrer: New question, two minutes, Senator Kerry.

If you are elected president, what will you take to that office thinking is the single most serious threat to the national security to the United States?

Kerry: Nuclear proliferation. Nuclear proliferation. There's some 600-plus tons of unsecured material still in the former Soviet Union and Russia.

It's okay Phil, we understand. Its really hard to tell what The Great Pretender thinks on any given day, at any given time. And really, we don't need John Kerry to tell us what the number one threat to America is. We already know.

The number one threat to America is John Kerry.

Posted by LindaSoG at 08:54 PM

Nuisance???

According to Drudge, The Great Pretender told the New York Times:

"We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance..."

Nuisance? When were terrorists just a "nuisance?" When they blew up the USS Cole? When they murdered 240 Marines in Lebanon? When they blew up the WTC the first time?

Send the paramedics. My head just exploded.

WAIT.... I am afraid its worse than I thought.

Kerry considers terrorism to be equal to crime of prostitution. The full quote:

We have to get back to the place we were, where terrorists are not the focus of our lives, but they're a nuisance," Kerry said. "As a former law-enforcement person, I know we're never going to end prostitution. We're never going to end illegal gambling. But we're going to reduce it, organized crime, to a level where it isn't on the rise. It isn't threatening people's lives every day, and fundamentally, it's something that you continue to fight, but it's not threatening the fabric of your life." -- John Kerry

Pardon me for saying so, but if this man is elected, we are more than screwed, we are fucked.

Posted by LindaSoG at 05:08 PM

I Agree With John Kerry

"No seriously — imagine that you struck up a conversation with a relatively informed person who said, "I agree with John Kerry about the war on terror." What, exactly do you think that person would mean?

Would he be trying to communicate that we should stay the course? That we blundered going to war in the first place? That we were right to go to war but handled it wrong since we were there? That it was a good cause? A grand diversion? We should bug out? Finish the job? Or simply that he doesn't know anything about the war except that George Bush is always wrong?" -- From Jonah Goldberg

Oooh, oooh...I'm guessing it's "he doesn't know anything about the war except that George Bush is always wrong"!

In all seriousness, it's amazing to me that we're in a war on terrorism and we have a man running for President who can't coherently explain his own position on the war, whose supporters can't explain it, and whose views have radically shifted time and time again.

It takes a lot of gall to take a joke like John Kerry and try to pretend he's credible on national security, but remember that we're talking about a party that calls ex-KKK member Robert Byrd the "Conscience of the Senate" and Bill Clinton, "The First Black President". So I guess "gall" isn't a problem...

King Abdullah of Jordan said just yesterday or the day before you can't hold elections in Iraq with the chaos that's going on today. -- John Kerry, Presidential Debate, 10/08/04

Okay. So. That is the opinion of the King. Now. If only someone could tell me what a king knows about elections.

Kerry Lied... again

I have to agree with The Great Pretender that if nothing else, he certainly is consistent.

There is no denying the fact that the Great Pretender consistently ignores the truth and consistently lies to America and the rest of world. Earlier lies are detailed here and here.

The Great Pretender consistently lies about Gen. Eric Shinseki, claiming the General was fired because he said the occupation of Iraq would take 10 years and 500,000 troops.

The truth is that General Shinseki served out his full, four-year term as Army CoS and Rummy announced his replacement prior to his "500,000" testimony, and while Rummy may not have been very fond of the General at the time, the truth is that Gen. Shinseki was set to retire before Iraq became an issue.

Kerry on Allies

Oh yes... I'm the Great Pretender... pretending that I'm doing well...

"I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." ... "I have a plan." -- John Kerry, Second Presidential Debate, St. Louis, MO, 10/8/04

I play the game but to my real shame....

Although he continued to tout it last nite, The Great Pretender admits that his great Iraq Plan is no-go, having already conceded before the debate that he probably will not be able to convince France and Germany to contribute troops to Iraq if he is elected president.

The Massachusetts senator has made broadening the coalition trying to stabilize Iraq a centerpiece of his campaign, but at a town hall meeting yesterday, he said he knows other countries won’t trade their soldiers’ lives for those of U.S. troops.

"Does that mean allies are going to trade their young for our young in body bags? I know they are not. I know that," he said.

Oh yes... I'm The Great Pretender... just laughing and gay like a clown...

Asked about that statement later, Mr. Kerry said, "When I was referring to that, I was really talking about Germany and France and some of the countries that had been most restrained."

"Other countries are obviously more willing to accept responsibilities," he added, as he took questions from reporters in a school yard in Tipton, Iowa.

And those other countries are..... who? More of those secret supporters?

We know this, one of those countries is certainly not Poland, who would probably leave the coalition if Kerry is elected.

"It is sad that a senator with 20 years of experience underestimates Polish sacrifice, this is sad," Mr. Kwasniewski said in an interview with Poland’s TVN television, saying it was "immoral" to ignore the contributions of Poland, Ukraine, Bulgaria and others.

Yup.

Oh yes... too real is this feeling of make believe...

Kerry on Intelligence

Oh yes... I'm The Great Pretender... Just laughing and gay like a clown

"Because the most important weapon in doing that is intelligence. You got to have the best intelligence in the world, and in order to have the best intelligence in the world, to know who the terrorists are, and where they are, and what they're plotting, you've got to have the best cooperation you've ever had in the world." -- John Kerry, Second Presidential Debate, St. Louis, MO, 10/8/04

I seem to be what I'm not you see...

While on the Senate Intelligence Committee, Kerry missed 76% of the public hearings. During Kerry's eight years of service on the Senate's Select Committee on Intelligence, there were 49 open, public hearings. Of these 49, John Kerry attended just 11 (22.4 percent).

In 1994, after the first terrorist attack on the World Trade Center, Kerry proposed an amendment to cut the intelligence budget by $6 Billion across the board.

Kerry on the Patriot Act

Oh yes... I'm The Great Pretender... Pretending I'm doing well...

"Now, the three things they try to say I’ve changed position on are the Patriot Act. I haven’t. I support it." -- John Kerry, Second Presidential Debate, St. Louis, MO, 10/8/04

My need is such I pretend too much... I'm lying but no one can tell...

"We are a nation of laws and liberties, not of a knock in the night. So it is time to end the era of John Ashcroft. That starts with replacing the Patriot Act with a new law that protects our people and our liberties at the same time. I’ve been a District Attorney and I know that what law enforcement needs are real tools not restrictions on American’s basic rights." -- John Kerry, Remarks At Iowa State University, 12/1/03

"If you are sensitive to and care about civil liberties, you can make provisions to guarantee that there is not this blind spot in the American justice system that there is today under the Patriot Act." -- John Kerry As Quoted On NPR’s 'Morning Edition', 8/18/03

Too real is this feeling of... make believe...
