| WND: Ex-SECNAV comments on Kerry Personnel File |
| 2004-11-02 |
| Middendorf said he cannot comment specifically on any action taken on Kerry, because he is barred, under the 1974 Privacy Act, from discussing personnel matters. However, he enthusiastically vouches for the character of Mark Sullivan, who formed the basis for a story today in the New York Sun by Thomas Lipscomb, the first to report discrepancies in Kerry's discharge record. Sullivan, who served in the secretary of the Navy's office in the Judge Advocate General Corps Reserve between 1975 and 1977, says the "honorable discharge" on the Kerry website appears to be a Carter administration substitute for an original action expunged from Kerry's record, Lipscomb reported. Asked by WorldNetDaily to address Sullivan's findings, Middendorf cited the Privacy Act. "I shouldn't comment other than to say I respect Mark Sullivan as one of the finest Navy officers we had." Too little, too late. Why bother now? |

| #3 Hopefully if Kerry loses, this will all come out as fellow Dems put a stake through his heart and blame him for keeping them out of power for another four years. |

| #2 Didn't the original report include a statement from a guy on the (then) Harvard Admissions Committee that they didn't want to take him because they were concerned he couldn't get admitted to the bar with his less than honorable discharge? He's certainly not constrained by privacy laws the way the Navy people are. So why aren't reporters beating a path to his door for more information? [Don't bother, I know the answer. :-( ] |

| #1 Even if is too late for this election Kerry and the moonbat wing of the Democratic party have to be utterly destroyed. I don't want to live again in anguish over my children being nuked because a Carter-like president allowed the Mullahs or Al-Quaida to get the bomb. There are many people who would vote for the Democratic candidate even if they presented a monkey (ditto for the Republicans). That is why our children will be in danger as long as there is a chance for a Kerry of being selected by the Democrats, that is why we should aspire for the Carters, Kerrys and Michael Moores to become an object of scorn for any Democrat and their future candidates being from the "Truman wing". |
