Letter to the Editor of the AMERICAN DAILY

To The Many Americans Who Still Don't Get It...

John Kerry began his rallies with a hand salute, "reporting for duty." But where was Senator Kerry the last two decades? Why did he not report for duty in the Congress? He was conspicuously absent from floor votes nearly 87% of the last two decades. Was this the record he lauded in his campaign for president?

This is not a new phenomenon for Kerry. He has been The Pretender since grade school. He pretended to be royalty even then. He pretended to be ready to debate issues on his college debate team. He pretended to be a Navy officer, serving his country. He pretended to be wounded by enemy fire not once, but three times. He pretended to deserve three purple hearts for those "pretend" wounds. He pretended to earn a bronze star. He pretended to earn a silver star. Then he booked the first plane home where he pretended to get out of the Navy, when in reality he only went to the inactive Naval Reserves until 1978. Then while pretending to be on his honeymoon in 1970 He met with America's enemies in Paris, who were pretending to want peace, and returned to America pretending to want to bring an end to the war for the good of Americans. He joined the Vietnam Veterans Against the War and held meetings in Detroit, where mainly pretend combat veterans repeated pretend atrocities supposedly committed by American forces. Kerry went before the Congressional Foreign Affairs Committee, chaired by pretend American Fullbright, and testified to all of the propaganda he had been taught by America's enemies while he was in Paris, pretending that he was a conscientious American patriot. While Kerry was doing all of this pretending honorable American's were dying to preserve Kerry The Pretender's right to pretend. Kerry pretended to be a patriot while he participated in treasonous activities with the likes of Ramsey Clark, Jane Fonda, Mark Lane, Donald Sutherland and David Horowitz.
Kerry pretended to throw his medals over the fence at the White House in Washington, DC. He Pretended he didn't want his pretend military awards because the war was unjustified. He pretended he wasn't at a VVAW meeting in Kansas City where a plot to kill conservative congressmen was contemplated. Kerry then pretended to resign from the VVAW while he was still serving as their spokesman wll into the following year. Kerry then went on to pretend to be qualified to hold public office. After President Jimmy Carter granted the anti-American war activists, deserters, traitors and draft dodgers amnesty Kerry pretended to be honorably discharged from the Navy and pretended to be a war hero again. In 1995 Kerry became chairman of the Congressional Committee investigating the POW/MIA dispute with the Vietnamese communists, where he pretended with the help of former POW and pretend patriot John McCain to review evidence concerning the POWs and MIAs left behind in Vietnam. After destroying evidence and refusing to hear testimony of witnesses he pretended that there was no reason to continue to pressure the Vietnamese communists about the POWs/MIAs and paved the way to restore commerce with communist Vietnam. He pretended that his family business had no interests in Vietnam. In March of 2003 Kerry pretended to attend the reunion of Swift Boat Veterans in NOrfolk long enough to get a photo shoot aboard the restored Swift Boat brought to the dock behind the Waterfront Marriott Hotel. He missed the banquet that night due to pretend emergency business in Boston so the Admiral of the Sixth Fleet spoke a little longer at the banquet.

In 2004 Kerry pretended to be a legitimate candidate for president of the United States of America, pretending to be a war hero and a loyal American. He boasted of his pretend heroics in Vietnam while boasting of his marching against the war as a pretend conscientious American patriot, "we marched and made a difference." And then THE PRETENDER could no longer pretend, because thousands of Vietnam Veterans, led by 260 honorable, conscientious, legitimate Swift Boat combat Veterans rose up, infuriated that this dispicable pretender would have tha audacity to laud his pretend heroics in Vietnam as a qualification for his bid for the title of Commander in Chief of America's military. Kerry's fabricated image began to come unglued. No longer could his pretend credentials carry him closer to the throne which he had pretended to own from his youth. The pretend after action reports from Swift Boat actions appearing on his website were quickly exposed as the after action reports of other Swift Boat commanders actions. His exaggerated medals were so irrefuteably exposed that even his campaign stalwarts and his biographer admitted that several were probably undeserved. Kerry's diaries used to write his biography contradicted his lies. The congressional records revealed his lies. The Great Pretender could no longer pretend. Or could he? Kerry continues to pretend even now. He does not grasp the gravity of his defeat in the election anymore than he understood the gravity of his activities in 1970, '71 and '72.

In the aftermath of his defeat Kerry now intends to lead a group of democratic congressmen devoted to criticism of the Bush Administration's every action. The Pretender thinks that this will strengthen his chances of running for president successfully in 2008.

But the Pretender's days of being able to pretend are coming "Swiftly" to a grinding halt. He put himself on the hollow pedistal and the Swift Boat Veterans and POWs for Truth are leading thousands of Patriotic Vietnam Veterans in a campaign to bring John Kerry to justice. The only ones who can justify calling John Forbes Kerry "hero" are the Vietnamese Communists. Kerry is honored in the communist's war memorial in Ho Chi Minh City [formerly Siagon] as a "Hero" of the communist cause for his anti-American activities which played a principle role in the communist victory in Vietnam. The Pretender originally received a less than honorable discharge from the Naval Reserves. The Pretender was an officer in the Naval Reserves, not regular Navy. The Pretender only served three months actually in command of a Swift Boat in Vietnam. The Pretender, John Kerry, refuses to file a military release form #180 to open his Navy BUPERS records to public scrutiny because his fabrications would be made public and even his staunchist supporters would know he is a pathological liar and Pretender. Kerry fits the profile of a classic sociopath. He refuses advise from anyone, because he thinks that he is the only one who knows anything. The Pretender cannot, must not, let anyone put together all of his lies, fabrications and exaggerations into one lithany because he knows full well that if they do his image, void of substance, will evaporate. Many times Kerry has been confronted by direct insults by Swift Boat Veterans who know his true nature and every time Kerry seems not to understand that he should be insulted. He is truely the most empty vessel I have ever had the displeasure to know. I have been hand to hand with personal enemies and I have engaged enemy warriors in battle who have more moral ethics, more courage, more virtues than Kerry can even pretend to understand. When he is finally forced to face the sheels of justice he will no longer be able to pretend that he is anything more than a Pretender.

America will be free of at least one of its enemies in the halls of Congress.

Clearing out the bullshit for 2008

The re-election of President Bush demonstrates a new consciousness by Americans to the threats to the foundation upon which this country was built. There was in this election a war cry from across the nation that no longer would America be subjected to the will of unAmerican influences. The celebrations of the election results are not even in full swing and already the majority who demonstrated by going to the polls and seeing to it that there was no question as to their support of what our nation is about are contemplating what should be done to assure consistent restoration of those values.

The election shows that Americans have turned a corner and no longer will be complacent in the political process. They understand that in the future there is hope that even more eligible voters will actually go to the polls and exercise their right to be part of the decisions made by their leaders. It is evident by their concern for the next election that they now understand the importance of their influence in Washington. In order to keep that renewed spirit alive in our fellow Americans it is important for those of us who were so instrumental in kettling that spirit to continue to pressure the major media's to report more than the isolated "ugly" incidents which fuel sympathy for their personal agendas. We must not relent upon pressuring our leaders to lead in accordance with the conscience of the majority of America.

Instead of looking for a viable candidate for 2008 we must mold one who will represent the true will of the American majority. By that I mean that by making it clear that we demand that our leaders remain true to the American ideals set forth by our founding fathers. This country was founded upon the ideal that WE THE PEOPLE should control our government, not the other way around. Great strides were taken in this election. The opportunity to create within the minds of those who will represent our will in government [from top to bottom] is within our grasp. We have three years to temper a candidate to our will and bring that candidate to the primaries in the next election to see to it that the will of the majority continues to lead our country into the future. Instead of looking for a candidate in the ranks of the party elites let us forge the candidates to represent our will and see who demonstrates their ability to fulfill those duties in exercising our will in Washington. It is by example and actual effort that leader reveals their understanding of the majority's will. We have three years to see which one of the eligibles will recognize and become true to our collective will. We have three years in which to make our will perfectly clear to our leaders. If we are vigilant the eligibles will "get it" and one will stand out by the time we have to choose a new leader. Lets begin forging that candidate now by keeping the flame of America's majority stoked.

WE THE PEOPLE can lead by example and command our leadership in Washington.

The Die is Cast..., Now What?

We who worked so hard to get the truth out to the general public during this election year have accomplished what no other grassroots campaign has ever done before, we forced the truth to be the guiding factor in this election year. Veterans, especially the Vietnam Veterans Groups, made historical strides this year. For the first time in history Veterans made a difference in the political process. Now we have the opportunity to see that the truth is told about not only Vietnam, but about what our troops are accomplishing today in Iraq and other parts of the globe. We can put an end to the negative propagandist stranglehold on mass communications media. We can use the victory we enjoyed this year to continue the fight to bring the truth to our learning institutions and purge our institutions of higher learning and our major media of those who are profoundly anti-American. John Paul Jones once said, "I have not yet begun to fight." This must be our inspiration to fulfill the objective. One battle does not win a war and the war for truth is never over. We now have the opportunity to take the upperhand in the struggle for truth and reason. We have the enemies of truth on the defensive and we must push them into the realm of irrevelance.

God bless America and all of you who have taken up the fight for justice. I know it is no easy road, but the rewards will be that our children will have the truth to guide them wisely into the future.

Swift Vets merge with POWs

Swift Boat Veterans Vow to Continue

Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, the group that John Kerry's campaign mismanager blames for the Democrat presidential nominee's defeat, promises that it won't go away.

Recently enlarged and renamed Swift Boat Veterans and POWs for Truth, the group is keeping an eye on Kerry, who has thrilled Republicans by saying he might run for president again in 2008.


William E. Franke, who runs the organization's day-to-day operations, pointed out in a recent interview with the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that the group was needed because the media establishment failed to report adequately and accurately on admitted war criminal Kerry's past.
"They have called us rag merchants and liars and scum and every name under the sun. But what he has never done is respond substantively to our accusations," Franke said.
Swift Boat Veterans and POWs for Truth has grown to "a substantive organization" with a donor list of 150,000, he said.

In January the group plans to hold a conference of its members in Orlando, Fla.
He said the group might help distribute the documentary "Stolen Honor: Wounds that Never Heal," which NewsMax aired on television nationwide after left-wing groups censored Sinclair Broadcast Group's attempt to show it.

Franke noted that it was an injustice that the Bush-hating film "Fahrenheit 9/11" could be shown so widely by the same types who muzzled "Stolen Honor."
"One thing I suspect we may do is join in an effort so that the POWs are able to get their message out," he told the paper.

In the end, Franke, said the 527 group Swift Boat Veterans for Truth raised just over $27.2 million in three months. One contributor, Robert Perry, a Texas residential builder, donated $4 million.
