A wave of the chuck’s tail to Paul Spera of MA., a Viet Nam veteran and a Past National Commander of the VFW.

From his baseless and despicable remarks in 1971 about Viet Nam veterans, to his comments last year accusing American troops of “terrorizing Iraqi civilians, to his latest contemptible attack on our troops Senator Kerry continuously displays his disdain for them.

Senator Kerry’s attack on them puts to rest the lie that he and others like him “support the troops.” Where is the outcry from the other Democrats? Where are the statements denouncing his remarks from Senator Kennedy and the rest of the Democrats in Congress? By their silence do they give tacit approval? Is it true that Democrat leaders only want him to be quiet until the election is over? Is that the attitude America will face if there is a shift in leadership in Congress? I wonder how many of these “silent” political leaders will lie to us in 11 days as they extol the virtues of those who wear the uniforms of this nation on Veterans Day.

Senator Kerry should apologize, but he won’t and his refusal makes me wonder if maybe the Swift Boat Veterans might know what they are talking about.

Since I received this e-mail, Kerry apologized under duress from the democrats. I believe he wouldn’t have except to try to get this off the front pages.

Not even the MSM could bury this story, thanks to the Internet and talk radio.
