An excellent bit over at “A collection of Thoughts”. Jen Martinez fowards something which was forwarded to her. It’s excellent.
War Heroes do not return home from a war and attack their own country!
War Heroes do not return home and attack their fellow veterans and service members!
War Heroes do not throw their medals over a fence at the capital and then later admit they were not theirs to begin with! (hypocrisy??)
War Heroes do not give aid and comfort to the enemy and conduct events under the flag of the enemy!
War Heroes do not lie and paint “ALL” of their fellow veterans as war criminals, before a U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee as he did on April 22, 1971.
War Heroes do not allow themselves and their conduct to be used as a propaganda tool by and for the enemy we are at war with.
War Heroes understand if you don’t like a policy, deal with the policy makers not falsely blame and accuse fellow veterans or those serving their country and simply following legal and lawful orders.
War Heroes do not create a situation when they return home that causes more death and severe torture of his fellow veterans still in combat or POW camps!
War Heroes don’t have friends and financial sponsors such as Jane Fonda who caused the additional torture of American POW’s.
War Heroes do not engage anti war activists to pretend they are veterans to give credence to their cause!
War Heroes do not make the lives of their returning comrades so miserable they are only called shameful names and ostracized from society in general causing many to commit suicide, and have a huge negative impact on their ability to move forward with their lives.
War Heroes do not work hard to create a society where other decorated heroes are afraid to admit they served this country let alone admit they are heroes themselves. Unless of course they are a part of his anti America band wagon.
War Heroes do not attack the military of their own country.
War Heroes do not create or promote an environment that makes members of the military feel ashamed of their service to their country.
If Kerry is not ashamed of his past why has he made sure his book was removed and taken out of print when he started his political career.
Once again Kerry has shown his true colors with his vote to support the war in Iraq and then voting “NO” for the funding. Its ok with him to send troops into harms way but its not ok to provide the proper logistical support they need. Obviously he learned nothing from his experience in Nam. His response is typical spin and nothing more. He was and “IS” playing for the vote.
Kerry “IS” scared of how his past actions will play with the public and he is very hopeful his past conduct will not become an issue. It will and has already started. He is counting on short memory. To bad for him. There is a lot of information related to his anti America activities in the past and how he benefited from such activities.
