That Lucky Hat! - Washington Post June 1 2003 | |||||
2004-08-10 | |||||
At the end of a LONNNNNNNNG article from the Washington Post A caller to Lucianne Goldberg, subbing for Laura Ingraham this AM alerted folks to this (From June 1 2003) A close associate hints: There's a secret compartment in Kerry's briefcase. He carries the black attaché everywhere. Asked about it on several occasions, Kerry brushed it aside. Finally, trapped in an interview, he exhaled and clicked open his case. | |||||

#6 Sung to the Civil War Song, âTenting Tonightâ Were sailing the river on Christmas eve. Keep low or youâll be shot. With stealth I deliver the CIA. And weapons that are in need. Many are the hearts that are weary tonight, Weâre gonna miss the Bob Hope Show! Theyâre shooting us from every bank, So friends we gotta go. So back to the base that we do go. And hope they donât fire away. My medals so far are tucked away safe, Cause I need them so I can go. Politics is in my future you see. Common folks need a well-bred leader. Opportunity knocks when I get back home So I have to protect my sorry ass! |

#4 "A journey on a U.S. Navy patrol boat with a four-man crew up the jungle-lined Nung River into off-limits Cambodia to follow Col. Kurtz's path to his remote stronghold island." It seems to me that if anyone would be lying on their back in a fetid hotel room, staring drunkenly at the fan, it'd be Theresa.... |

#2 The "lucky" hat must have looked nice with his "lucky" jacket: "The Swiftvets website ... [is ]replete with refutations of John Boy's claims in his book, Tour of Duty ... [and]ridicule of his wearing that leather flight jacket on the campaign trail and claiming it brought him luck in Vietnam, "'No one wore such a jacket in 90+ heat.' [says one poster there] "You sure you want to keep bringing this guy's service record up in every speech, John? I know it's easy for someone who never served to be a little overawed, but good grief, even a weenie liberal lawyer ought to be able to figure out you don't wear leather jackets on jungle patrols, you know? And what's with this flight jacket business anyway? What was John Boy flying over there? Sure as hell wasn't a supersonic F-102 interceptor like George Bush, now was it? "But of course! Why didn't I think of it? That jacket could explain the minor nature of his award-winning wounds; kept all that nasty flak and flying lead from really hurting him instead of just breaking the skin, you know? Guess that's why he calls it his lucky jacket. But I got tell you, Man, speaking of breaking, I'm sitting here breaking out in a sweat just thinking about it. I mean, jungle fatigues were hot enough; but leather? With fleece lining? Whew, man, that's hardcore!" |

#1 Refrences the Article But, if you click on the reference, you are re(hack) directed to the Kerry Campaign site. Very odd! I got to the true article by clipboarding text! |
