KERRY IS UNPATRIOTIC

Since I’m not running for anything and probably never will, I’ll go ahead and say it, John Kerry is unpatriotic.
1. It’s unpatriotic to volunteer to leave your shipmates in a war zone because of three imaginary wounds.
2. It’s unpatriotic to lie about the shipmates you left behind in that war zone calling them and everyone else serving there murderers and rapists.
3. It’s unpatriotic to meet with enemy representatives in Paris while holding an Officer’s Commission in the Naval Reserves.
4. It’s unpatriotic to pretend to throw away your medals in protest only to have them show up neatly framed in your senate office.
5. It’s unpatriotic to stand in the well of the senate and lie about where your military duties took you (Cambodia?) in order to score some debating points.
6. It’s unpatriotic to vilify a sitting president in time of war for using an authorization of force that you yourself voted for.
7. It’s unpatriotic to vote against the funds to support our troops put in harms way by your earlier vote authorizing the president to use force.
8. It’s unpatriotic to trash our allies supporting a war you voted for while claiming to be the candidate capable of building stronger alliances.
9. It’s unpatriotic to send your sister to influence the election of one of our strongest allies telling them that their stand with the US has made them less safe.
10. It’s unpatriotic to allow your surrogates to trash the leader of the country we are fighting for, a man with real war wounds, a humble man who wanted to come before America’s elected leaders to offer his profound thanks and gratitude for America’s sacrifice on behalf of his fledgling country. The man wasn’t done shaking hands after his speech before you rushed to a microphone to verbally give him what amounts to “the finger” stopping just short of calling him a liar.
