1/8/2005: John Kerry Meets with Ba'athist Dictator

[SharpLS-96]

I guess he missed the memo about Congress being in session again.....geez. I guess Congress doesn't miss him so what's the difference.
He's acting like the President he never will be visiting World leaders.

Excuse me Senator? Can you explain to me how we make Iraq Vietnam again?

Now that the election is over, is this even worth discussing?

We're not discussing an election, Ace. We're discussing a visit to a foreign Head of State by a U.S. Senator.

OK Slick. What I'm trying to point out is that now that the election is over and JK lost, who gives a flying rats ass about what he does? Lots of Senator meets with lots of heads of state. How is this even news worthy at this point?

Photograph of John Kerry meeting with Comrade Do Muoi, General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, in Vietnam, July 15-18, 1993. Photo taken in the War Remnants Museum (formerly the "War Crimes Museum") in Saigon in May 2004.
-photo by Bob Shirley

Jeff Epstein, of Vietnam Veterans for Truth, explains the importance of the photograph:

"This photograph's unquestionable significance lies in its placement in the American protestors' section of the War Crimes Museum in Saigon. The Vietnamese communists clearly recognize John Kerry's contributions to their victory. This find can be compared to the discovery of a painting of Neville Chamberlain hanging in a place of honor in Hitler's Eagle's Nest in 1945."

Below the photograph of John Kerry are explanatory placards in English, French, Vietnamese, and Chinese. The English placard reads:

"Mr. Do Muoi, Secretary General of the Vietnamese Communist Party met with Congressman and Veterans Delegation in Vietnam (July 15-18, 1993)"

Senator Kerry may argue today that his anti-war protests did not render support to the enemy in time of war and that his activities did not violate the definition of treason given in Article III, Section 3, of the US Constitution. This exhibit paying tribute to Kerry in the War Protestors Hall of the War Remnants Museum in Ho Chi Minh City tells a very different story. The Vietnamese communists clearly feel that the American anti-war protestors were a very important force in undermining support in the United States for American war efforts, a force that contributed materially to ultimate communist victory in 1975.

Ding ding ding......you win the prize!!!
I knew you'd get it among some other members like Mmarshall.

Anyway, I'm not so sure he's actually a Senator since no one can vouch for seeing him in his Senate seat.

I suggest simply killing him and getting on with your life. (I even included your favorite smiley!) lol.

How is it newsworthy? Though I don't entirely agree, the media apparantly considers it newsworthy because Kerry almost became President.

In fact.............now that he is in Damascus, It will be like being back in the military for him............name, rank, and Syrial number.

Nice pun.
