| Cox and Forkum have a good take on Kerry’s hypocrisy in today’s feature. Be sure to check out their posted comments and the links from their page. The latest AJ-C columnist ends with: "Bush’s honorable service in the National Guard bothers me less than Kerry’s abandonment of his brothers, his switching sides and his active contribution to an enemy’s efforts to kill Americans. Time often softens the dark edges of military service, leaving grown men the ability to sit around a kitchen table late at night to laugh about the exploits that left them less than whole. But the dramatic difference between Hero Kerry and Hanoi Kerry leave me to wonder who he might next abandon, and at what cost to America." |

| #15 Sorry I wasn't more explict, dataman1. I could have saved you some trouble. It was one of the recommended links on the C&F page. The quote in my post was from the article you cite. |

| #14 I sent a copy with the URL of an AJC article on Kerry from a NAM Vet's stadpoint to our local (only newspaper) liberal newspaper. This is a start. Everyone needs to get the word out on this clown. Here is the link if you haven't already seen it. IT's time for some truth to be told. http://www.ajc.com/opinion/content/opinion/0204a/09veteran.html |

| #12 #10 BAR, here's a better picture of the pair. The link was posted on RB 2/9/04.http://www.newsmax.com/images/headlines/Fonda_Kerry_arrow.jpg Jane is up front and Kerry is to the LEFT of Fonda and back a row or two. |

| #11 Is there anyone who has ever actually served with him around? What do they think of the 'hero'? A number of men from his unit were campaigning with him in Iowa and NH - don't know if they're still out there with him or not. |

| #10 Check out this picture of Johnny and Hanoi Jane in todays Washington Times. Kinda fuzzy, but from what is visible, apparently not much has changed over the years. Add a whole bunch of gray hairs, a few wrinkles, and voila! It's 2004. |

| #9 Why, as the story asserts, would Vets be offended today? I don't believe that for a minute. It was deeply offensive then, when it happened, and nothing to date has changed that fact. This is probably why he has publicly said he doesn't want to be associated with those trying to smear Bush -- those things have a very nasty habit of backfiring. I think Duke Cunningham has it right - and most Vets didn't know about Kerry's little reversion to gutless turd immediately upon his return to The World, until now. Now they do. It has already backfired. Can you say "Oops"? |

| #8 #7 link. So they met in 1970? Now we know where Jane got the inspiration for her 1972 trip to Hanoi. My guess is that Kerry's gonna get a lot fewer votes from Vietnam Vets than the press fantisizes. |

| #7 John Kerry is about to wish the camera was never invented. Check out this picture of Johnny and Hanoi Jane in todays Washington Times. Seems like a lot of Vietnam veterans have long memories. |

| #6 The Democrats would have been a helluva lot better off if they'd stuck with Howard "I Have A Scream" Dean. I don't think they have any idea how much of a turkey they've got in John F'ing Kerry; but they sure are about to find out. |

| #5 GK - That's awesome! And Accurate, too. Kerry is Skeery - and I can't even remotely imagine how high a price we'd eventually have to pay if we elected someone like him. It wouldn't just set us back or waste the incredible efforts expended thus far, which includes many fine and true American heros -- it would set us up and extend a hudna to AlQ and its ilk so that the next time they got their act together the resulting hit would be devastating... and this is assuming the asshats have only a modicum of sense. Skeery Kerry. Sucks like a cowardly fool, now, regardless of what he may have done 30-odd years ago... it's the cowardly fool who's running for Prez. Sigh. Thx! |

| #4 .com, Chuck Asay featured a cartoon about Kerry's medals in today's Gazette, but it won't be on line for a couple of days. OP mentioned Asay a couple of weeks ago and I posted the link. Here it is again to another take on Kerry: http://www.comics.com/editoons/asay/ The medals 'toon, "Feb 10", should be up in a day or two. S/The political cartoon junkie |

| #3 Isn't it obvious by his 'letter' to the Mullah's of Iran? Its our freedom he will sacrifice for a few pieces of gold. Is there anyone who has ever actually served with him around? What do they think of the 'hero'? |

| #2 I kinda wish they'd shown his burning uniform in the C&F toon... that would've worked for me. |

| #1 But the dramatic difference between Hero Kerry and Hanoi Kerry leave me to wonder who he might next abandon, and at what cost to America. Uncle Sam; that's who. And at the cost of having Lady Liberty stoned to death. |
