John Kerry, bitter loser
This is funny. John Kerry taking revenge on a contributor to the Swift Boat Veterans for truth.
Jean Francois Kerrie (did I mention that he served in Vietnam?) used his elected office as a vehicle for revenge during the confirmation hearing held today for Sam Fox, who was nominated as ambassador to Belgium…
Incredible. Well, incredibly small minded.
Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., grilled nominee Sam Fox about why he donated $50,000 to the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth during the 2004 presidential race. The group of Vietnam veterans made unsubstantiated allegations against Kerry — then the Democratic presidential nominee — and charged that Kerry did not deserve the medals he won in the Vietnam War.
“Might I ask you what your opinion is with respect to the state of American politics as regards the politics of personal destruction?” Kerry asked near the end of the hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. ~foxnews.com
I heard part of this exchange on Fox News this evening, where Kerry accused the SwiftVets of lying. I would have asked Kerry to specifically tell me, “What lies?” What lies did the SwiftVets tell? Specifically.
Then I might have discussed the nature of truth. Whose truth? How can one define anything as an absolute. After all, many things are not black and white. Kerry obviously has his own version of the truth, granted. But that doesn’t make the SwiftVets truth any less valid.
“But Kerry said the incident raised questions about Fox’s fitness to serve as an ambassador.“Â Â ~foxnews.com
