#1 "the campaign hopes Kerryâs war record will have particular appeal along the Virginia coast, with its heavy military presence."

THis is sad. They actually believe their own lies and distortions of Kerry's record. Unlike the current active and retired and former service military they are targeting.

We know a buddy f**ker when we see one.

#3 GWB does not want to have Viriginia in play this fall. Time to put in a few visits now and shore things up.

#4 Hanoi John's own words. And this is going to be our next CIC. Not if i have anything to do or say about it!
"We will not quickly join those who march on Veterans' Day waving small flags, calling to memory those thousands who died for the "greater glory of the United States." We will not accept the rhetoric. We will not readily join the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars -- in fact, we will find it hard to join anything at all and when we do, we will demand relevancy such as other organizations have recently been unable to provide. We will not take solace from the creation of monuments or the naming of parks after a select few of the thousands of dead Americans and Vietnamese. We will not uphold traditions which decorously memorialize that which was base and grim."

-- John Kerry, in "The New Soldier"

#6 Kerry placed a wreath near Bronsonâs name and made the sign of the cross before pausing for a few moments of silence.

Ah, yes, an emotional and private moment of a veteran remembering a fallen comrade. With the media present to catch it all on film, of course.

#7 Per Newsmax and Fox reported this:

Sen. John Kerry's record as an anti-war protester came back to haunt him on Memorial Day when he was confronted by a heckler as he tried to pay his respects to a soldier killed in the Vietnam War.

"How much money are you getting to betray our POWs?" an unidentified middle-aged woman shouted as Kerry visited the Vietnam Veterans memorial on the Washington Mall.

"Are you paying tribute to all the people you spat on, Senator Kerry?" she added. The top Democrat did not respond.

Need a few more of these people out there wherever he is or speaks.
