MSNBC interviews John Edwards: Kerry would offer Iran nuke ‘bargain’.

A John F. Kerry administration would propose to Iran that the Islamic state be allowed to keep its nuclear power plants in exchange for giving up the right to retain the nuclear fuel that could be used for bomb-making, Democratic vice presidential nominee John Edwards said [...]

In his 1971 testimony, John Kerry portrayed the Vietnamese people as a whole as puppets who would simply roll over for whomever provided them a cupful of rice.

We found most people didn’t even know the difference between communism and democracy. They only wanted to work in rice paddies without helicopters strafing them and bombs with [...]

In Kerry’s 1971 testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, he claims:

We saw that many people in this country had a one-sided idea of who was kept free by our flag, and blacks provided the highest percentage of casualties.

From Unfit for Command, chapter four:

“Kerry seemed to believe that there were no rules in a free-fire zone and you were supposed to kill everyone. I didn’t see it that way. I will tell you in all candor that the only baby killer I knew in Vietnam was John F. Kerry.

The Blogspirator has a post up showing John Kerry at an anti-war rally with über-liberal Ramsey Clark — the man that Salon.com called “the war criminal’s best friend”:

At the end of 1998 Clark attended a human rights conference in Baghdad, Iraq, where in his keynote speech he pointed out how “the governments of the rich [...]

While working on the screenshot for the last post, we noticed Kerry’s website has an interesting omission: On the Vietnam Service Timeline”, they conveniently forget to mention John Kerry’s first and third Purple Heart, but they do mention the second!

December 2, 1968
Kerry experiences first intense combat; receives first combat related injury. (no mention of the [...]

The Kerry campaign has admitted that Kerry may indeed have received his first Purple Heart for shooting himself during a non-combat action:

GARRETT: “And questions keep coming. For example, Kerry received a Purple Heart for wounds suffered on December 2, 1968. But in Kerry’s own journal written nine days later, he writes he and his crew, [...]

The Kerry campaign, major media and other radical-left groups have recently whined about the Evil Republican™ ties to Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. Sure, one or two of the guys knows somebody who knows somebody who has donated to the Bush campaign, but for the Kerry campaign it’s downright incestuous. Zack Exley is the Kerry-Edwards [...]

If you’re listening to a rock star in order to get your information on who to vote for, you’re a bigger moron than they are. Why are we rock stars? Because we’re morons. We sleep all day, we play music at night and very rarely do we sit around reading the Washington Journal.

Hackworth’s latest column is a carefully disguised hit piece against Swift Boat Veterans for the Truth. “Carefully disguised” because he couches it in the language of the war-weary veteran who only cares about the welfare of “his” soldiers. He even praises President Bush for flying F-102 fighter jets — though he does call him a [...]
