Is John Kerry a liar? Is John Kerry keeping his medical info secret?
Republican callers on the Washington Journal are calling in almost daily questioning John Kerry's
medical record associated with his Bronze Star, a Silver Star and three Purple Hearts, that he receive while in Vietnam.

A caller this morning said junior produced his medical records and now John Kerry should
produce his.

Read the link below, 'tis a good one

1. When did Junie produce his medical records?
That dental exam in Alabama doesn't count.

3. Really.............
I'd be interested in seeing Dumbya's complete medical records, including all substance abuse reports. I'm willing to bet these don't exist anymore.
These Republican pigs are grasping at thin air trying anything to slow down the Kerry momentum.
I hope it comes back to demolish any hope of returning the illegal usurper to the White House.

4. Yeah, sure...I love it!
The entire US Navy was in cahoots, in the early seventies, to give John Kerry talking points to use against an AWOL incumbent when he ran for president 30+ years later.

Obviously Kerry's service was not nearly as honorable as Bush's service! Talk about grasping at straws!!!!!

14. When he wasn't getting drunk and taking naps while defending...
...Texas from the Viet-Cong, or when he wasn't dodging drug tests, he was AWOL while traveling around and working on his daddies political campaigns.

<<<The entire US Navy was in cahoots, in the early seventies, to give John Kerry talking points to use against an AWOL incumbent when he ran for president 30+ years later.>>>

This is what gets me. The incredible mindreading ability of the military that they were able to know 30 years ago that JK would be running for president one day and that he would be helped if they gave him a few phoney medals. The thing I don't get is, with the military being as Republican as they are, and as prescient as they apparently were, why did they go to all this trouble to bolster Kerry's chances to win a presidential election as a Democrat????

5. Hi Jerry
:hi:

I heard that dumb ass.

You notice also the * supporters keep calling Liberals "bush haters" and irrational.

I can't for the life of me understand how they justify or compare *'s military record to Kerrys.

They must be made of rubber -- those contortions have got to be painful.

9. Sounds like the same caller to me, but I've also heard a few females
Remember this little nursery rhyme? Cuz it kind of sounds like junior

Old King Cole was a Merry 'O Soul
with a buckskin belly and a rubber asshole

With a corn cob peter and walnut balls
I bet 'ya by golly he'll fuck 'ya up the wall

7. thanks for the link
I heard that they are collecting signatures for a petition to unseal Kerry's medical records. I was wondering about it.

Those Bush supporters are just brainless morons who believe everything that those right-wing fascists tell them

8. Robert Dole
Edited on Thu Mar-18-04 09:44 AM by oneighty
ex Senator received his first purple heart medal via a minor wound from the explosion af an errant handgranade which bounced off a tree and returned back to the thrower of said handgranade, namly Bob Dole. He spent overnight recovering from wound dressed with a bandaid. Wound was self inflicted-by accident of course.

Source..Popular news publication prior to failed erection for president.

PS. I am very sorry-spell check failed me.

10. Sidenote on the Army in Nam
The one year tour for Infantry Officers was 6 months in the field and 6 month in a base camp. Unlike the enlisted who could stay in the field the whole tour.

In 71 I had a crazy ex-Infantry Lt as a roommate for 9 months. He got out of the Army only for one reason, he could not be in the field as much as he wanted to be. He liked blowing up things.

While most guys that went to Australia for R&R found a sweet young thing to spend the week with, not Dave, his idea of a good time in Australia was going to the Zoo, and on more than one day :shrug:

So what happened to Kerry is no different than other Officers.

11. That is why I don't watch WJ:
Too many fascists calling in with their BS, and no one to call them on it.

15. You should start watching again.
Let the idiot facists call in, that way people like you and I can call in to refute them, whether it be that day or next week. As long as you remember what town they called from. I hear some callers say something like "you had a caller about a month ago from blah blah that said blah blah. That's how we call them on it.

Plus you have to keep in mind that these are ordinary Americans calling it and what they say is not fact but their opinion.

16. I'll keep that point in mind - when and if I ever get on
I also believe there are shills calling in to set the guest up as to the agenda they want to get across. More Republicans than Dems IMHO.

17. We've all said this is going to be one ugly campaign.
Thanks to the Internet and talk radio (and the Fascist News Network), the wingnuts can get a LOVELY reception. My (very bad word) wingnut co-workers were gloating about how Kerry was going to drop out of the race after the Drudge story re: Alex Polier broke. The animals are getting restless again, and we've got our work cut out for us.

And I'll relish debunking any goofball e-mails that come my way. I've already gotten quite a few in previous years, so this year should be no exception.

18. Junior showed us the cavities in his teeth..
Big deal..

Let's see the wounds that * got during the viet nam war ...

Probably consist of,..


aching ribs from dry heaves
wrecked septum from cocaine
black eye from bar brawl
road rash from crawling around a parking lot, in a drunken stupor
