I can not vote for a coward.
So much the Democrats wanted a hero to vote for. Now that they have
found out the truth, that Kerry was actually a coward, most Democrats
are now shocked and dismayed by their candidate.

Jane Fonda: Communist America-Hating Liberal
Yet another Atlanta Journal-Constipation story. This time it's a
fawning story about Jane Fonda and her fund-raising efforts for
leftists democrats. The story twice refers to Fonda as an "activist."
Could someone please tell me what the hell that means? Just what is
an "activist?" Someone who is active? Someone who actively supports
a cause? Does that make me an "activist" because I support the poor
homeowners of Alabaster, Alabama who are about to have their homes
stolen for a Wal-Mart?
Why can't the local rag refer to Fonda as a "socialist?" That's what
she is, and those are her words, not mine. I still distinctly
remember her "socialism, that's the only way" admonition years ago.
Her former husband, Ted Turner, has echoed Fonda's calls for a
socialist United States.
Come on, you objective journalists. Call her what she is ... a
socialist; a communist, an anti-capitalist, anti-individualist
collectivist. While you're at it you might want to add "traitor" to
your definition.

Photo of Kerry with Hanoi Jane Fonda Enrages Vietnam Veterans
By Stephen Dinan
February 11, 2004
A photograph of John Kerry together with Jane Fonda at an anti-Vietnam
War rally in 1970 in Pennsylvania has surfaced on the Internet,
angering veterans who say his association with her 34 years ago is a
slap in the faces of Vietnam War veterans.
The photograph, taken at a Labor Day rally at Valley Forge, has been
circulating across the Internet, particularly among veterans. It was
posted Monday on the NewsMax.com Web site.
Mr. Kerry spoke at the 1970 rally, the culmination of a three-day
protest hike from Moorestown, N.J., to Valley Forge, which featured a
speech by Miss Fonda and a reading by Hollywood actor Donald
Sutherland.
"When he stands up with Jane Fonda, someone that is so notorious and
hated by veterans, and Tom Hayden, and a couple of others as well and
supports their agenda," Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham, California
Republican, said yesterday, "it diminishes the service some of us
almost gave our lives for,
and the over 56,000 people that lost their lives -it slaps their
families in the face."
Mr. Cunningham was the first pilot to qualify as an ace in the Vietnam
War, by shooting down at least five enemy airplanes.
"I think it's his right, but it kind of upsets you," Mr. Cunningham
said. "He had honorable service, but it's a shame someone would let
politics rule their life, instead of their principles."
Mr. Kerry, a Navy lieutenant, commanded patrol boats on South
Vietnamese rivers and was wounded three times. On his return to the
United States, he turned against the war, and at the time of the
Valley Forge rally, he was beginning to gain notice as one of the
leaders of the organization Vietnam Veterans Against the War.
He went on, in 1984, to become a U.S. senator from Massachusetts and
is now the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Kerry campaign spokeswoman Stephanie Cutter said yesterday Mr. Kerry
should not be associated in the public mind with Miss Fonda and her
later trip to Hanoi, where she was photographed sitting astride a
North Vietnamese antiaircraft gun.
"John Kerry and Jane Fonda were just acquaintances," Ms. Cutter said.
"What's important to understand here is two things: He met her before
she went to Vietnam, and he did not approve of her very controversial
trip."
She said Mr. Kerry took part in the antiwar movement in order to bring
U.S. troops home quickly.
"John Kerry served his country bravely," she said. "He was awarded the
Silver Star, the Bronze Star and three Purple Hearts for his service,
and he praised the noble service of his fellow servicemen and women.
After coming home, John Kerry worked to end the war so his fellow
soldiers could come home, too."
Mr. Kerry testified in 1971 before the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, however, citing accusations that American soldiers in
Vietnam routinely committed atrocities such as beheadings, killing
children and razing villages. He did not present evidence of these
claims.
John Hurley, national director of Veterans for Kerry, said that the
antiwar movement included a mix of people and that Mr. Kerry should
not be grouped with all of them.
"There were a lot of people protesting that war, some of whom he would
agree with and some of whom he would disagree with," said Mr. Hurley,
who marched with Mr. Kerry in Washington in 1971. "I don't think he
had any control of that. It was the issue that was dominating. Like a
lot of other vets coming back, we were angry and frustrated [that]
guys were dying in Vietnam for no reason."
Mr. Kerry's protesting "saved more lives than not," he added.
Still, the photograph has spread quickly among Vietnam veterans
browsing the Internet.
"If you mention Jane Fonda's name to a Vietnam veteran, it's a
lightning-rod reaction," says Ted Sampley, publisher of the U.S.
Veteran Dispatch and staunch opponent of Mr. Kerry. "She was supposed
to be antiwar, but she clearly sided with one of the belligerents,
which precludes her from being antiwar. She was a partisan."
Mr. Sampley first saw the photograph Monday on the Internet and
purchased it for his online newsletter. He saw it pop up elsewhere,
and he soon began receiving e-mail messages from readers who had seen
the photograph.
"This picture exposes just how close John Kerry was to Jane Fonda," he
says. However, he says the photograph doesn't reveal anything that
many veterans of Vietnam didn't already know.
"Joining the antiwar movement was possibly the worst thing he could
have done to the soldiers still in the field," he said. "He basically
gave aid and comfort to the enemy."
The Vietnam War, though it ended more than three decades ago, has
emerged as a central issue in the presidential campaign, as it did in
previous campaigns. In 2000, President Bush faced questions about his
service in the Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam war years.
Those questions have been raised again this year.
Bill Clinton was criticized in 1992, when it was reported that he used
political pressure to avoid the Vietnam-era draft after he ignored a
written agreement to accept a slot in the ROTC at the University of
Arkansas. He was further cited for his involvement in the antiwar
movement as a student at Oxford University in England, including his
work in coordinating the largest antiwar, anti-U.S. demonstration on
foreign soil.
Mr. Kerry tells Democratic audiences at campaign appearances that he
will be able to stand up to Mr. Bush on the issue. He frequently cites
Mr. Bush's appearance on the deck of the carrier USS Abraham Lincoln
as misleading voters.
"I know something about aircraft carriers for real," he says.
Rep. Sam Johnson, Texas Republican, who spent nearly seven years in a
prisoner-of-war camp in Vietnam, said yesterday the photograph of Mr.
Kerry with Miss Fonda will hurt him nevertheless.
"I think it symbolizes how two-faced he is, talking about his war
reputation, which is questionable on the one hand, and then coming out
against our veterans who were fighting over there on the other," Mr.
Johnson said.
Mr. Johnson recalled that his North Vietnamese captors played
recordings of Miss Fonda telling U.S. troops to give up the war.
"Seeing this picture of Kerry with her at antiwar demonstrations in
the United States just makes me want to throw up."

You will not be voting for Bush and Cheney then?
Kerry, two medals for courage, Bush, well, they don't give
out medals for being AWOL and drunk.
You are brain damaged.

Bush added $2 trillion in national debt in three years. The
biggest addition of national debt of any president. There are
280 million Americans. That is $3,333 per American, $13,332
For a family of four. Bush wants to make the tax cuts that are
generating these vast debts permanent.Vote Kerry, we cannot
afford more massive debt.
Cheerful Charlie
