1971 VIDEO: KERRY ADMITS THROWING OWN MEDALS; CONTRADICTS CURRENT CLAIMS

In an interview published Friday in the LOS ANGELES TIMES, Dem presidential hopeful John Kerry claimed he "never ever implied" that he threw his own medals during a Hill protest in 1971 to appear as an antiwar hero.

But a new shock video shows John Kerry -- in his own voice -- saying he did!

ABC's GOOD MORNING AMERICA is set to rock the political world Monday morning with an airing of Kerry's specific 1971 boast, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

The video was made by a local news station in 1971.

It directly contradicts Kerry's own website headline: "RIGHTWING FICTION: John Kerry threw away his medals during a Vietnam war protest."

Kerry's campaign refused comment Sunday afternoon, citing a policy not to respond to the DRUDGE REPORT.

GP: As you have repeatedly responded, when your guy has been caught in lies and hypocritical actions. All politicians do it. If he lied I am ashamed of him. But we know Bush has lied repeatedly about much more serious studff. Bottom line is do we want a hypocrite and liar whose policies we support or one who's policies we don't.

Wouldn't it be great if Kerry would say, yes I lied and I'm sorry. Don't hold your breath.

Yeah, these are not the two best America has to offer. But its who we are stuck with. Maybe you are righ Sharpton is our man!

Our system is broken, and its not getting better.

:D

sorry but the Drudge Report is not a compilation of fantasy but often times the first place you will see news....there are links to both conservative and liberal leaning writers from most of the popular papers and wire services around the world...Though the Kerry folks say they don't respond to Drudge you best believe that they read it. Plenty of dirty laundry about the Bush folks to be found there too. When you check it out be sure to see the number of hits on that website each day.

Yep. That's where I first heard about the Kerry affair that never happened.

Better stick to NPR then

Drudge was same place reported the the man who 'did not have any sexual relations'... The site is credible and any news site may have some misinformation. Heck, look at usa today, the times and the Wa post. His site is just the first to post many topics from credible sources.

'That's where I first heard about the Kerry affair that never happened"

Or the affiar that could not be reported because a young lady knew it would ruin her life?

He denied it, she denied it. But, I'm sure you know better than they..........

just pointing out that there is enough evidence either way so to say Drudge is hooey based on that is weak :-)

Someone said Drudge was hooey?

OK... Who REALLY gives a flyin' f**K whether Kerry threw his medals back in the early 70's or whether GWB went AWOL. It's ALL just petty partisan BULLSH!T, intended solely to distract uninformed voters from what's REALLY important!

...and to provide fodder for internet BB political "discussions".

Then 4Salt you are going to love the $1000 haircut... LOL :rolleyes: I agree w/ya
