First it was former Vermont Gov. Howie Dean seemingly planting
sick people around him so he could appear to be a healer while
on the campaign trail. (Recall that early in the campaign, Dean
was often coincidentally close by to aid people who had either
fainted or fallen ill at his campaign events
http://snipurl.com/4cbs .)

Now John Kerry's campaign is planting volunteers at his
appearances in order to make him appear tougher. At a rally
yesterday at which he accepted the endorsement of Maine Gov.
John Baldacci, Kerry faced down a heckler in the Portland
audience who called out, "Why don't you tell them about your
vote on the war and the Patriot Act?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ask Kerry REAL questions.

Like about live sightings of MIA's.

Like about classified MIA documents which were shredded.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kerry responded that he would -- but in time. "I never run away
from anything, especially George Bush," Kerry said.

The candidate seemed to be quick on his feet in the response,
and his retort garnered applause. Perhaps his quick thinking

the result of knowing the jibe was coming.

According to a Kerry campaign source, the campaign has been
looking to plant local volunteers in crowds to mix it up, and

make it appear their man is facing down tough questioning.

kind of confrontation pushes him up the line in news coverage,"
says the staffer. "Instead of facing a tough question from a
reporter, the news guys have this seeming give and take to
report on."

More on how Kerry stabbed Vietnam Vets in the back and cashed in

the Vietnam War like his heros the Kennedys and LBJ.

Much of Kerry's speech before Congress painted his fellow GIs as

brutal that, today, they could easily be mistaken for Saddam

Hussein's

Fedayeen killers.

He reported to Congress that U.S. soldiers had "personally raped,

cut

off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to

human

genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies,
randomly shot at civilians, razed villages, shot cattle and dogs

fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside

South Vietnam."


At least Howard Dean did not smear Vietnam Vets for 20 pieces of
silver like Kerry did.

More on how Kerry made a lot of money sweeping the POWs and MIAs

the table.

"To add insult to injury, when American POWs finally began to return
home (some of them having been held captive for up to nine years) and
describe the tortures they had endured at the hands of the North
Vietnamese, Jane Fonda quickly told the country that they should "not
hail the POWs as heroes, because they are hypocrites and liars." Fonda
said the idea that the POWs she had met in Vietnam had been tortured
was "laughable," claiming: "These were not men who had been tortured.
These were not men who had been starved. These were not men who had
been brainwashed." The POWs who said they had been tortured were
"exaggerating, probably for their own self-interest," she asserted.
She told audiences that "Never in the history of the United States
have POWs come home looking like football players. These football
players are no more heroes than Custer was. They're military
careerists and professional killers" who are "trying to make
themselves look self-righteous, but they are war criminals according
to law."

From the same page:


In fact, Fonda carried home letters from many American POWs to their
families upon her return from North Vietnam, and rumors that a POW was
beaten to death when he refused to meet with her were nothing more than
rumors.

On the one hand, Jane Fonda provided no tangible military assistance to

the

North Vietnamese: she divulged no military secrets, she gave them no

or material, and she did not interfere with the operations of the

forces. Her actions, offensive as they were to many, were primarily of
propaganda value only. On the other hand, Iva Ikuko Toguri (also known

"Tokyo Rose") was convicted of treason for making propaganda broadcasts

behalf of the Japanese during World War II (although she claimed her
betrayal was forced and was eventually pardoned many years later by
President Gerald Ford), and Fonda's efforts could fall under the

definition

of "giving aid and comfort to the enemy." It is also undeniable that

American soldiers came to harm as a direct result of Fonda's actions, an
outcome she should reasonably have anticipated.

In 1988, sixteen years after denouncing American soldiers as war

and tortured POWs as possessed of overactive imaginations, Fonda met

Vietnam veterans to apologize for her actions. It's interesting to note

that

this nationally-televised apology (during which she attempted to

her actions by characterizing them as "thoughtless and careless") came

a

time when New England vets were successfully disrupting a film project

was working on. It's also interesting that not only was this apology
delivered sixteen years after the fact, but it has not been offered

since. More than a few have read a huge dollop of self-interest into

Fonda's

1988 apology. (Finally, in an interview in 2000, almost thirty years

the fact, Fonda admitted: "I will go to my grave regretting the

of me in an anti-aircraft carrier, which looks like I was trying to

at

American planes. It hurt so many soldiers. It galvanized such hostility.

It

was the most horrible thing I could possibly have done. It was just
thoughtless.")

Jane Fonda has also claimed, in recent years, that she has become a
born-again Christian. Maybe John Kerry will try that claim too. He's

to need SOMETHING to prop up his sagging candidacy. His poll numbers have
dropped 7 points in just the last week alone.
