Bob Kerrey on Swift Vets: "F--- them!"
2004-09-01
No link--just heard this on Fox News. Bob Kerrey, ex-senator (D) from Nebraska, when asked to comment on the Swift Vets' anti-John Kerry ads, said, "F--- them! And you can quote me on that!"

#8  Hey, I like the Swifties as much as anyone. It's just that this Kerrey had the balls to say something, whereas the other Kerry has been in hiding for a month. I don't agree with what Kerrey says, but at least he's got enough stones to say what's on his mind.

#7  Nice to know that Bob and John are both willing to put politics before their fellow vets. So much for the idea of a band of brothers, eh?

#6  Tibor - Sorry, but WTF? Yeah, I remember - so? MoH or no, that doesn't mean that when he farts out of his mouth it smells like Scope & sunshine. I honor his actions - 35 yrs ago. Bob Kerry made an ass out of himself (or proved he always was an ass and most just didn't know it) on the 9/11 Commission and obviously still suffers from brain farts.

#5  That doesn't change my mind about him being an opportunist, buddy fucker who used his service to advance his political carrer while trashing all Vietnam Vets for all time. We still live with his lies. I for one will never forgive him. He dishonored his flag, country and uniform and should be tried on treason charges for giving aid and comfort to an enemy in time of war.
I'll stand with the Swift Vets thank you.
Oh and Mr Kerrey Fuck you too and you can quote me on that.

#4  At least one of the Kerr(e)ys has some spine. Remember, this Senator Kerrey is a MoH winner.

#2  The meme for this election is that it is the last chance for America to "vote" on the Vietnam War. Were our military people there good people or were they war criminals?
