To call Senator John Kerry a traitor for opposing the Vietnam war maligns millions of Americans who protested the Vietnam war in the 1960s-70s. Not only that, but it directly contradicts the FBI's own files on John Kerry's anti-war activities following his distinguished service in the U.S. Navy in Vietnam.

The FBI files, which were recently released, describe Kerry as a "voice of moderation" in the anti-war movement. This was the FBI of J. Edgar Hoover, the same FBI that infiltrated anti-war groups and pushed them toward militancy, and their conclusion was that Kerry was a "moderate. Not a flag-burning Communist who went to North Vietnam to pledge his allegiance to the Communists.

Instead, Kerry was a very patriotic American who went before Congress and testified that the war was a lost cause, and that Americans were dying everyday for a war that two presidents had seen as not winnable. The war also happened to have been unjustified and unjust. The U.S.A. obliterated over a million Vietnamese in order that the "dominoes" of Cambodia and Laos would not fall to the International Communist Conspiracy. President Dwight "Ike" Eisenhower announced that free and direct elections would be held in Vietnam in 1956. Those elections never took place, but within a generation, almost two million Vietnamese, untold thousands of Laotians, and hundreds of thousands of Cambodians would be dead, alongside 58,000 American soldiers.

So John Kerry is a traitor for fighting bravely and admirably for his country, while Bush is an American hero for joining the National Guard to avoid being sent to Vietnam and also shirking his duty while in that service. Only a warped logic could produce that view. G W Bush recently said that "Kerry isn't fit to be "Commander in Chief"." Considering the fact that Kerry knows what war is like and also how terrible war is from having served our country in Vietnam, I think that makes him more fit than Bush to be "Commander in Chief".

You are right Sir. Kerry did his patriotic duty by telling the truth about war. The revolution has begun, and will end when Bush loses re-election!

"A political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a person you want as your commander in chief." ~ George W. Bush (10/27/04)

With George W. Bush, we have a man who failed in two businesses of his own. On taking office, he inherited a huge surplus and turned it into the largest deficit in history.

He is the first president since Herbert Hoover to lose jobs in the national economy.

Iraq is a disaster. He talks tough on terrorism but leaves our chemical plants unguarded and unprotected from terrorists and our shipping containers unscanned by any bomb-searching devices.

Instead of spending the money available to protect us, he uses it to give his contributors (billionaires) a large tax cut.

And he's tough on terrorism? When he walks with a swagger and talks tough, how many terrorists does he scare?

He doesn't even like to read in order to study the issues involved. How can he possibly know what's going on?

He is further threatening one of our oldest and most successful institutions, Social Security, with a "privatization" scheme that will no doubt be as disasterous as his other initiatives.

The only reason he has given for his re-election is in his attempted smear of his opponent, claiming John Kerry is unfit while offering more of the same disasters.

Bush has been proven over and over again to be totally incompetent and unfit for the job. His re-election would be a catastrophe unparalleled in our history.

straight fromt he infamous kerry web site, why dont you do us a favor and post this mysterious plan he keeps refering to that he keeps there

Fine korg, if you want to believe our men ran around cutting off heads and genitals in systematic fashion in order to terrorize the women and children of Vietnam because Kerry said it was so go ahead. I cant believe that the men who served in Vietnam were any different then the men who I served with in the 1990’s, and I know that myself and the men I served with were are all good men who would tell anyone who ordered them to kill an innocent civilian to shove it up their ass. So unless you are saying the men who were in Vietnam were just heartless barbarians then I don’t believe it.

So unless you are saying the men who were in Vietnam were just heartless barbarians then I don’t believe it. you know travh, im not saying that everyone was barbaric, but when you are seeing your friends blown to bits, you can get angry enough....dont you think ? your over there, and dont want to be, you seem to be fighting for people who didnt appreciate it, it could piss you off. not to bring this up, or make it an issue, but during the vietnam era, blacks were being hanged by the neck for recreation........so, why couldnt it happen there. anger can make the most gentle man, a beast..........let someone molest your son or daughter, and see what that anger could make you do.........we dont have to fully agree, but you gotta see my point.
