More than 250 Swift boat veterans have now signed an open letter to
Senator
Kerry challenging his fitness to serve as commander-in-chief of America's
armed
forces.

Heck yes. We're much better off with the guy who ran and hid from his duty
than
a guy who at least showed up.

Kerry sure got around, apparently. 250 people that he met in Viet Nam
while
commanding his swift boat were all consciously forming opinions of the
20-something's fitness to be president.

LOL!! He was sure happy to have the small section of them who support him
on stage during his last day of the Convention.

Question: Why did he carry a movie camera on the boat and ask his men to
recreate daring scenes he was involved in? Better yet, why did he ask
Spielberg to add the effects of gun fire in the water to those films and add
them to his video at the convention? Very strange.

Answer: Lots of those who went to Vietnam carried around cameras of
various kinds, still and motion. I had a Leica rangefinder and a Nikon F
with me, and two additional lenses for the Nikon wnen I was in SE Asia.
Lots of officers I met had still cameras and 8 mm cameras with them.

You seem to have a geat deal of difficulty with abstract thinking,
fella. Did you ever graduate from college?

It was your job to take pictures. It was not Kerry's job to do so and it
was strange that he did.

But even stranger, and what you failed to address, is why he had his men
recreate skirmishes and film them while doing so.

What spin are you going to give that Krause?

It was? No, it wasn't. The cameras were my personal property.

No it wasn't. There were plenty of personal still and movie cameras in
Vietnam.

So are you saying, or trying to infer, that you actually *served* in Vietnam
or are you saying that you were a civilian working over there?

And you never answered my original question....for some strange reason you
keep deleting it from your replies:

I posted what I posted. It's always fun to watch the low-brain-output
right-wingers "misinterpolate" (as your leader would say)...

There's no requirement that I answer your questions. As I have stated
time and again, I have no interest in playing your games. You, of
course, are one of those who leap to conclusions based upon this, but,
again, all this does is lead you down the road to "misinterpolation."

Translation: You got me stumped once again. I will therefore resort to
personal attacks as that is my safety net when losing an argument.

Harry,
You are obsessed with a few people in here. Life must be very boring to get
you to post so much in rec.boats.

How is your Lobster Boat and Doctor Doctor wife doing.

Is it your opinion he should have filmed the action while it was
acutally happening?
