Then, she developed a staph infection, and they had to cut the same scar open and operate on her again. Just thinking about the pain and anxiety of facing that painful surgery a second time in the same wound, makes me cringe. That experience, however pales in comparison to what I am going through right now, in my heart. The old hurts are surfacing and the feelings of betrayal by fellow citizens, and their leader stirring them up, are breaking my heart again. I am being cut in the same scar. How did we who served in Vietnam suddenly become cold-blooded killers, torturers, and rapists, of the ilk of the Nazi SS or the Taliban? Most of us were American soldiers who grew up idolizing John Wayne, Roy Rogers, and all the other heroes. That was why I volunteered. But for political expediency, you have rewritten history, again. After spending only four months in the country of Vietnam, you testified before Congress in 1971 with these exact words about incidents you supposedly witnessed or heard about from other vets: "They personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam." I was a Green Beret officer who volunteered for duty in Vietnam and fought in the thick of it in 1968 and 1969 on a Special Forces A-team on the Ho Chi Minh Trail, just for starters. We were the elite. We saw the most action. Everybody in the world knows that. But we did not just kill people, we built a church, a school, treated illnesses, passed out soap, food, and clothing, and had fun and loving interaction with the indigenous people of Vietnam, just like our boys did in Normandy, Baghdad, Saigon, and everywhere American soldiers ever served. We all gave away our candy bars and rations to kids. Our hearts to oppressed people all over the globe. My children and grandchildren could read your words, and think those horrendous things about me, Mr. Kerry. You are a bold-faced, unprincipled liar, and a disgrace, and you have dishonored me and all my fellow Vietnam veterans. Sure, there were a couple bad-apples, but I saw none, and I saw it all, and if I did, as an army officer, it was my obligation to stop it, or at the very least report it. Why is there not a single record anywhere of you ever reporting any incidents like this or having the perpetrators arrested? The answer is simple. You are a liar. Your medals and mine are not a free pass for lifetime, Senator Kerry, to bypass character, integrity, and morality. I earn my Green Beret over and over daily in all aspects of my life.! Eight National Guard Green Berets, and other National Guard soldiers, have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, and you totally dishonored their widows and families by lumping National Guard service in with being a draft-dodger, conscientious objector, and deserter, just so you can try to sabotage the patriotism of our President who proudly served as an Air National Guard jet pilot. I have a son earning his Green Beret at Fort Bragg right now, and his wife serves honorably in the Air National Guard, just like President Bush did, and I am as proud of her as I am my son. I volunteered for Vietnam and have no problem whatsoever with President Bush being our Commander-In-Chief. In fact, I am proud of him as our leader. John Kerry, you personally derailed the Vietnam Human rights Bill, HR2883, in 2001, after it had passed the House by a 411 to 1 vote, and thousands of pro-American Montagnard tribespeople in Vietnam died since then who could have been saved, by you. Earlier, as Chair of the Senate Select Committee on MIA/POW Affairs, you personally quashed the efforts of any and all veterans to report sightings of living POW's, when you held those reins in Congress. You have fought tooth and nail to push for the US to normalize relations with Vietnam for years. Why, Mr. Kerry? Simple, your first cousin C. Stewart Forbes, CEO, of Colliers International, recently signed a contract with Hanoi, worth BILLIONS of dollars for Collier's International to become the exclusive real estate! representative for the country of Vietnam. "Hanoi John," now that it works for you, you beat your chest about your Vietnam service, but to me, you are a phony, opportunistic, hypocrite. You are one of those politicians that is like a fertilizer machine: all that comes out of you is horse manure, and you are spreading it everywhere. Medals do not make a man. Morals do.

What have I done! I have expressed one viewpoint without giving the opponents a chance to respond! I am surely darned to heck! My guess is that, unlike your claim that you are not being allowed retort, you are free to respond any way you want, and you just did. But I won't be listening to further entreaties to come over to the dark side because I am availing myself of this opportunity to killfile a lot of dexter masturbators such as yourself. Believe me, I've heard ALL your arguments for the last ten years, since Clinton came into office, and I know enough to feel comfortable in drawing a conclusion and the conclusion I've come to is that you are a boil on the butt of mankind and the sooner you are lanced the better. -- "I'm the master of low expectations."

In newsgroups, your name already appeared at the top, implying that everything underneath was written by you. I think that Alan was awfully rude about it, which is not a good way to point out a minor error in posting. The whole point of these groups is communication. By not indicating that you were quoting someone else, your post was less effective. It wasn't until we read to the end of the quote that we realized that you didn't write that. -- Dan Abel Sonoma State University AIS [email protected]nic.net

If one person puts out a cartoon, so can anybody. If one person says something libelous, the person libeled has every right and countless opportunities to reply and even call down the wrath of the judicial system if the libel can be proved. Politics has always been a full-contact sport, recent years as exemplars, but it's nothing new. Recently, I think the conservatives have done a much better job of using catch-words and slogans than the liberals. "Tax and spend" is brilliant. It implies that the people so designated are reckless with taxpayer money and spend it on frivolities. No mater the truth of it. Nicknames like "Hanoi Jane" smash an end to the conversation. If you like any part of her activities, political or not, you're tarred with the same brush. The only choice is to *completely* dissociate yourself from her. Talk radio is filled with right wing programming that relies on keeping Bill and Hilary in the blame chair and forgiving GWB anything and everything. Those hosts are masters of invective and colored assertion. I do talk radio and can't imagine keeping up with them in that style. I admire the success of a marginal group that has essentially usurped the dialogue as strongly as they have. By their rhetoric, they've gotten themselves into a position of making the rules for the political discourse in this country. We're now in a repressive, inhibited frame; look at the fallout of one breast sorta shown on tv. Congress is investigating, radio and tv stations are tightening standards, even when they don't apply to the kind of programming at hand. I was told not to use profanity on the air. I never have. Huh? It's the political climate at work. Feels like the early 50's. >>>I prefer writings by real people who lived it.

Well, another view is that the running of the country is too important to leave to someone with unaccountable gaps in a record that should be clear and obvious. I dunno what the antagonists are thinking, but it looks like tit for tat to me. The right are attacking Kerry for being in Nam. The left is attacking GWB for not being there. Nasty politics; nothing unusual. > Considering that these are baseless and outrageous lies that the "Press" disproved a DECADE past, > they would call the perpetrators out and expose this for what it really is instead of beating the > drums FOR THE LIARS? I honestly missed both the discussion when he was running for the governorship and any proof or disproof offered back then. I live far from Texas. If the stuff was all disproved back then, why hasn't the White House offered that same proof and settled it once and for all? Seems to be a contradiction here with the "press" having disproved what you say are lies and the continuing story from the "Press." I didn't understand what you said. But it does seem a bit simpler to me than all this hand wringing. Is there proof for his record or is there not? If there is, all they have to do is show it. If not, then how to explain it with reasonable credibility instead of dribs and drabs of uninformative talk? I haven't been following the story with any diligence, but it does seem that the White House has been waffling on it. Little bits of inconclusive information offered in a seemingly grudging fashion. Seems to me that it would be best to get it all out on the table, answer the questions and get past it. >>Puzzling. >> > Yes, it is. And, unfortunately, remains so. Pastorio

I've lived in several other countries and assiduously avoided doing any more than asking superficial questions about their national issues when talking socially. It's that old business about religion and politics not being good conversation topics. Normally serene people become frothing lunatics when those subjects come up. Some of my friends are liberals and some are conservatives. I like to stick with my friends. Pastorio
