(As far as that goes, if you want a brave War of Independence vet, go with Benedict Arnold. If you don't believe me, look it up.) All we know about Kerry's service is that he refuses to release his medical records from the time he served in the military.<BR/><BR/>And what "truth" did young John share with the country? That he and all of his fellow U.S. service members were a bunch of crazed murderers and rapists? No, I don't think he told the truth. I was too young for that conflict, but I have friends whose fathers served over there. If you think Kerry told the truth about that war, you are the deranged one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20403719.post-5952418016944644342007-09-21T13:37:00.000-04:002007-09-21T13:37:00.000-04:00Or he's a deranged veteran encouraged by unscrupul...Or he's a deranged veteran encouraged by unscrupulous anti-Kerry forces.<BR/><BR/>Listen, I'm not a huge fan of John Kerry by a long shot.

He believed (presumably believes) Bush is an empty suit. But he knew that Kerry was full of it, and he didn't want to watch Kerry ride to political victory on his Vietnam "hero" story again. So, why shouldn't I buy it? Don't tell me you fell for John Kerry's line of crap.

Clearly this guy is an instigator, and a doofus, (see ABC news.com: "Meyer has his own Web site and it contains several "comedy" videos that he appears in. In one, he stands in a street with a sign that says "Harry Dies" after the latest Harry Potter book was released. In another, he acts like a drunk while trying to pick up a woman in a bar. The site also has what is called a "disorganized diatribe" attributed to Meyer that criticizes the Iraq war, the news media for not covering the conflict enough and the American public for paying too much attention to celebrity news.") but, freedom of speech people!!!!!
