Judicial Watch Calls For Investigation Into Kerry’s Medals

[imax2268]

Can you believe this shit...?

(Washington, D.C.) – Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, today filed a request with the U.S. Navy and the Defense Department for an investigation into the awards granted to Sen. John Kerry during his service with the U.S. Navy in Vietnam. Judicial Watch also requested that military authorities investigate Kerry’s anti-war activities, including his meeting with North Vietnamese and Viet Cong delegations in Paris, while a member of the Naval Reserve.

4. ALL I CAN SAY IS ...OH MY GOD

6. un-fucking-believable

Does this have anything to do with the judiciary? Maybe someone should do a little investigating where JW gets their money.

Let's do a Judicial Watch-Watch.

7. Didn't Judicial Watch also request...

...the Cheany Energy Task Force records?

We may not alwys agree with them, but they aren't evil. THis may also work to our advantage if they find out his awards are valid.

8. Hopefully...

it may just be a good thing...

[woofless]

10. IF?

[DarkPhenyx]

17. Yes..."if".

You have an issue with that word?

[dansolo]

11. And how did they do with that?

Until they can successfully get the unsealing of the Cheney energy task force records, they should, in the immortal words of Bill O'Reilly, just SHUT UP. My feeling about the Cheney lawsuit was that it was a scam to give the impression of being impartial. They haven't been nearly as aggressive about going after Cheney as they were in going after Clinton.

18. Nice attitude.

I guess until we can see all the info the Administration has and prove Bush is lying we should shut up too?

[RetroLounge]

14. And they didn't get the records, did they...

It was a smoke screen so they can claim bi-partisanship.

Not falling for it...

16. OK, whatever.

How much do you really know about their record?

[blm]

9. Kerry already had the FBI tracking all his movements. Judicial Watch can

read those just as easily as anyone else.

If there was more there, Nixon would have used it...and Reagan and Bush administrations when they were trying to take Kerry down during his dogged investigations of BCCI and IranContra.

12. Starting to remind me of Wellington...

"Publish and bedamned!"

Let 'em investigate. And hurry it up. It's the best thing that could happen.

13. Larry Klayman sued his own mother

He has zero credibility.........

[zbdent]

15. First person they should compel to testify for the prosecution

Larry Thurlow.

Get him to swear to God that he will tell the truth.

Then ask him, yes or now, were the swift boats under attack during the event where he and Kerry both earned their Bronze Stars?

If he says yes, it validates Kerry, and the ad is shown as a blatent lie.

If he says no, strip him publicly of his Bronze Star for getting it under false pretenses and hiding the facts for decades.

19. Here comes Kerry's "whitewater" "scandal"

Making a crime out of military service.

Brought to you by the same fascists who tortured Clinton for 8 years.

These people all belong in jail
