John Kerry, sign your Form 180 or shut up
Reading Mary Ann Akers in the Washington Post column “The Sleuth” today, I’m reminded of John Kerry and his childish refusal to sign his Form 180 and putting all of this “swiftboating” nonsense behind him.
Kerry “swiftboated” himself by not being forthcoming with his military records and proving his detractors wrong. So anything else he has to say about the people who ended his stillborn ambitions is just mindless blather.
Every veteran has been challenged about his accomplishments. The veterans who have actually done the things they claim to have done don’t mind proving themselves. Every soldier who had ever reported for duty has had to display his bona fides. Why won’t Kerry, and why won’t Kerry shut up about it?
According to AP, by way of Fox News;
But Kerry said the incident raised questions about Fox’s fitness to serve as an ambassador.
Why? Because he opposed a politician in an election a donated money to that politician’s opponent? I guess just about anyone would be unfit using that measure.
Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., a presidential hopeful and chairman of Tuesday’s hearing, said he found Fox’s responses “unsatisfying.” He said he would have preferred if Fox admitted it was a mistake to contribute to the Swift Boat group.
I’d have preferred that Fox just come out and tell Kerry to sign his fricken Form 180 and admit that he’d done nothing wrong and declare that both Obama and Kerry resign their respective positions if they plan on using those positions to intimidate their political enemies – like two spoiled little brats.
