Unfit for Command (via.. Drudge)

A bombshell new book written by the man who took over John Kerry's Swift Boat charges: Kerry reenacted combat scenes for film while in Vietnam!
We here at Rantburg knew about Kerry's home movies.
The footage is at the center of a growing controversy in Boston. The official convention video introducing Kerry is directed by Steven Spielberg protégé James Moll.
Will they actually show Kerry's re-enactment of his heroism in chasing down and killing a wounded, fleeing enemy soldier? Somehow I dont think so....
Moll was given hours of Kerry's homemade 8 millimeter film to incorporate into the convention short, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. "Kerry carried a home movie camera to record his exploits for later viewing," charges a naval officer in the upcoming book UNFIT FOR COMMAND. "Kerry would revisit ambush locations for reenacting combat scenes where he would portray the hero, catching it all on film. Kerry would take movies of himself walking around in combat gear, sometimes dressed as an infantryman walking resolutely through the terrain. He even filmed mock interviews of himself narrating his exploits.
Kerry's version of PT-109....

#7  The scene where he is hit by egg shell fragments is particularly disturbing touching.

#6  Isn’t this against the Geneva Convention - to kill wounded (fleeing?) enemy soldiers? No in fact you want them in retreat and disarray so that you can exploit the situation (kill them). But I doubt many boat crews wanted to beach their craft and chase the enemy on foot?

#5  Right on #2. Looks like Teresa had some Botox help in addition to hubbie, not to mention that someone finally told her to comb her hair instead of appearing with her usual rumpled out of bed look. When Teresa started giving salutations in numerous languages[granted she knows several languages, though she still struggles with proper English] I thought I'd vomit. What a grand stander. Think of Teresa replacing Laura Bush as First Lady and that image should keep you sleepless for many nights to come.

Oh, this was about Cecil B deKerry, and his epic, "Fleeing Viet-Kong : U Die Twice!"

#3  I had a feeling he went to Vietnam so he could return to protest and start a political career.

#2  If this isn't the creme del la creme definition of vanity and self-importance, nothing is.

Except Teresa giving her speech last night.

At first I thought wow, maybe I just misjudged this woman. Nope. Had it right the first time. Let her talk long enough and no one needs Sominex.
