does anyone know if kerry has personally killed anyone?

[westsidexview]

[NMDemDist2]

1. yes, when he won the Silver Star n/t

[lovedems]

2. I think he did while in Vietnam.

He killed for his country while Bush was getting his teeth cleaned.

[trumad]

3. Says he did in Nam...

up close and personal....

[freetobegay]

4. Being that he is a Vietnam vet

I would have to say yes.

[Still_Loves_John]

5. I remember in one interview

he talked about how when he told his daughter the silver star story he said that the guy got scared and ran away, and that he only recently told her that he killed someone.

This was during the MTV interview, and the interviewer asked Kerry why he changed the story for his daughter, and Kerry gave him the best look. Just a "you mean why did I not want my 6 year old to know I killed a man?" look.

6. Let me let you in on a secret

Don't go there. You don't dodge bullets and mortars and napalm and jungle warfare and get a bronze star and a silver star and not defend yourself. I am speaking on behalf of all veterans. Kill or be killed is the determining factor on whether you come back alive.Sometimes defending your life will still get you put six feet under. Why did you even go to this question? Please don't go there.
These soldiers, veterans live with survival guilt and these things for the rest of their lives. Personally kill someone? Our veterans have enough on them without having to answer that question. Trust me they think about it daily. John Kerry is one of America's combat veterans.

8. i don't mean to be insensitive but

the republicans want to define kerry as a liberal which has connotations of being wimpy maybe not as patriotic as say a conservative. it just seems at some level kerry is what W dreams of being(ie a real hero/warrior). i also did not know if kerry was in that kind of direct combat, and sense the stakes are so high, it was a legitimate question. maybe not fair but legitimate.

[RandomKoolzip]

9. Bullshit.

If Kerry DID come out and say, yeah, I killed a man face to face in Vietnam, and made a big deal out of it, the right-wing owned media (i.e. ALL the media) would damn him as an unstable, psychotic murderer. And you know it.

[westsidexview]

14. if anyone made a big deal out of killing someone they would be sick

maybe du should have a faq page so someone doesn't get his or her head bit off when he asks a wrong question.

[seabeyond]

21. hey westsideview

most impressed with you in your non knowing then all the arrogance going on, gigglin and a wink. you are doing great and exactly to the point you make. he being a hero and taking life and battle, then coming back and speaking out against the war in courage and eloquence as opposed to those that have never been in battle tainting his record

i have listened to some of his testimony in front of congress

and yes to the point that there could be a faq page, but then equally i embrace those that have a question to ask, and enivitably someone will come along and embrace adn share, i am just sure, lol

[jukes]

12. the story has been verified by several crewmates.

charlie was prepping to launch an RPG into his boat, kerry ran him down & capped him point blank.


he's a legit hero, saved his boat & crew, @ great personal risk.

[Bush was AWOL]

32. Any Republican that labels Kerry as wimpy is a total pussy

themself. Read the story on his silver star and you will quickly find out the man is anything, but a pussy. Well, Bush was blowing lines, Kerry was serving his country and saving his crew members lives.

[dolo amber]

7. Me....John Kerry killed me

and ate my head. Then he kicked my dog on the way out. :(

[westsidexview]

10. it is always nice to have intelligent posts

[Minstrel Boy]

13. No, it's not.

Sometimes threads get what they deserve.

[westsidexview]

17. oh yeah!

Kerry knows he must reach beyond the liberal schizophrenics to win this election. swing voters will push kerry to the white house.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

26. Are you labeling those that disagree with you liberal schizophrenics?

pretty mature of you...

[westsidexview]

30. hi rationalrose

[Kathy in Cambridge]

31. I think it will be more like "bye"

sooner than later. ;-)

[dolo amber]

15. Wha...?

Did I spell something wrong...? :shrug:

[RandomKoolzip]

11. John Kerry punched me in the kidneys.

Then he tied me up and threw me in an alligator pit.

[dolo amber]

16. He's a right bastard

I tells ya...

[slappypan]

20. they say he done them all in

they say he done it with an axe

[RandomKoolzip]

25. He killed a man just fer snorin' too loud!

No, wait, that's Judge Roy Bean.

He killed an intern in his office!
No, wait that's Joe Scarborough.

He killed his ex-boyfriend with a car!
No, wait, that's Laura Bush.

He's friends with admitted Nazis!
No, wait, that's Arnold Schwarzenegger.

He got a woman pregnant and made her get an abortion!
No, wait, that's George W. Bush.

He was head of the CIA while they assassinated dissidents and troublemaking leftists the world over!
No, wait, that's George H. W. Bush.

Come on, there's GOTTA be something we can pin on Kerry, guys! We can't let those Dems keep getting away with murder!

[RandomKoolzip]

22. He's rich and Bush isn't!

Kerry's a limousine liberal, a Massachusettes Blueblood, and Bush is a bootstrap-pulling commoner from a dirt-poor little burg in Texas!


Wait...you mean Bush is an inheritance millionaire...from an oil/intelligence dynasty....? And he was born in CONNECTICUT?! But he seems like such a man of the people......


Damn liberal media!

[Fenris]

18. He did kill a man

Just to watch him die. :eyes:

[Kathy in Cambridge]

28. Wasn't that in Reno?

:D

[mzmolly]

19. George Bush, in the coming election, does that count?

:shrug:

Oh yeah, and he's a decorated war hero. I think he did in combat.

George Bush killed 30,000 plus with the Iraq war, but hey, who's counting? :shrug:

[Cleita]

23. And how does this compare to the number people Bush

has killed and maimed because of his executive decisions and policies? Remember when he was governor of Texas he had a reputation for being the capital punishment governor. He had no remorse either.

[Kathy in Cambridge]

24. Once again, you've posted flamebait

:eyes:

Big surprise there.

[RandomKoolzip]

27. Between this guy and Ringmastery....

there's probably been more flamebait posted today than real sincere threads.

Jesus, when the president's poll numbers look bad, they really come out of the woodwork, don't they?

[Kathy in Cambridge]

29. Yup, and I just PMed you

son of a gun! :D
