Left Wing Radical KERRY: "The US is the Real Criminal!" Kerry Hates
America.
During his war protest days in the early 1970s, Democratic
presidential front-runner John Kerry once denounced the United States
of America as "the real criminal" in the Vietnam War. In comments
first reported by the New York Times 33 years ago, Kerry condemned the
entire country as "criminal" during a 1971 demonstration on Wall
Street, a few weeks after the trial of Lt. William Calley.
"Guilty as Lieutenant Calley may have been of the actual act of
murder, the verdict does not single out the real criminal ... the
United States of America," railed the future Democratic presidential
hopeful.
The damning comment was unearthed by the Baltimore Sun, which
reprinted Kerry's outburst in its Saturday edition exactly as quoted
above.
The Sun also revisited other anti-war comments by Kerry that have yet
to receive significant exposure, including remarks Kerry uttered on
NBC's "Meet the Press" a few weeks after the Wall Street protest.
"I committed the same kinds of atrocities as thousands of others," he
told the network, "in that I shot in free-fire zones, fired
..50-caliber machine bullets, used harass-and-interdiction fire, joined
in search-and-destroy missions and burned villages."
Though NBC has the Kerry interview on tape, it has so far declined to
broadcast his revealing comments.
The Sun also obtained reactions from two of Kerry's Swift Boat mates
in Vietnam, who told the paper they were deeply disturbed by his
anti-war activities.
Kerry crewman James Wasser said he was "absolutely upset" over his
former commanding officer's claims that the U.S. committed wartime
atrocities as a matter of course.
Saying he recalled no such war crimes, Wasser said of Kerry, "I felt
betrayed."
Shipmate Bill Zaladonis was also offended by Kerry's claims. "I didn't
like the idea [of Kerry condemning his fellow servicemen]," he told
the Sun.
"I certainly didn't believe that all Vietnam veterans were
baby-killing women rapers. Most people I know agree with me - they
didn't see it."
While Wasser and Zaladonis remain troubled by Kerry's anti-war past,
they're split over whether they intend to support him for president.
"I'm still studying it," Zaldonis told the Sun, while Wasser
occasionally campaigns for the Massachusetts Democrat.

are mean, vicious, hateful, greedy, cold-hearted, closed-minded,
selfish, intolerant, bigoted and racist.
