"As some of you may know, I am part-English and part-Irish." John Kerry
1984.

Kerry's ancestry is actually Jewish Czech and Hungarian, but his claim
certainly played well to the large Irish population in Massachusetts.

There are hundreds more if you care to search.

Where did you get this trash? There's no lie here. Kerry didn't learn of
his grandmother's Jewish heritage until the *late* 1980s. Many Jewish
immigrants of that era changed their names.

First, Kerry told us this:

"(W)e need to disarm Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal, murderous dictator,
leading an oppressive regime. We all know the litany of his offenses. He
presents a particularly grievous threat because he is so consistently prone
to miscalculation. ...And now he is miscalculating America’s response to his
continued deceit and his consistent grasp for weapons of mass destruction.
That is why the world, through the United Nations Security Council, has
spoken with one voice, demanding that Iraq disclose its weapons programs and
disarm. So the threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is
real, but it is not new. It has been with us since the end of the Persian
Gulf War." -- John Kerry, Jan 23, 2003

"The threat of Saddam Hussein with weapons of mass destruction is real, but
as I said, it is not new. It has been with us since the end of that war, and
particularly in the last 4 years we know after Operation Desert Fox failed
to force him to reaccept them, that he has continued to build those weapons.
He has had a free hand for 4 years to reconstitute these weapons, allowing
the world, during the interval, to lose the focus we had on weapons of mass
destruction and the issue of proliferation." -- John Kerry, October 9, 2002

"I will be voting to give the president of the United States the authority
to use force - if necessary - to disarm Saddam Hussein because I believe
that a deadly arsenal of weapons of mass destruction in his hands is a real
and grave threat to our security." -- John F. Kerry, Oct 2002

-------------------------------------------------------

Now, Kerry tells us this:



June 2003:

"He (Bush) misled every one of us. I will not let him off the hook
throughout this campaign with respect to America's credibility and
credibility to me because if he lied he lied to me personally"

It's all more of the same old "politics-as-a-blood-sport" BS. Are
there any candidates that advocate normalization of relations with
Cuba? I'd like to be able to cruise there legally, and they'd get my
vote.

It's the Irish part he was flaunting to capture the votes of the large Irish
population in his State.

He certainly knew his grandparents were not Irish.
