   I have heard nothing from the mainstream news media, radio, TV   
   and of course, the usual left-wing press about what I personally   
   believe is John Kerry’s latest treasonous caper. Only the New   
   York Post reported negatively on Kerry’s alleged wanton   
   violation of the Logan Act; his unauthorized negotiations with   
   the Ayatollahs of Iran, a country that sponsors terrorists and   
   wishes to destroy America.   
      
   In 1970, Kerry was a very vocal anti-war veteran activist. I do   
   believe he was still a US Navy Reserve Officer when he appeared   
   at the Paris Peace talks. He openly met with communist North   
   Vietnamese envoys to denounce America. He called U.S. GIs s war   
   criminals. American POWs were being held in brutal, inhumane   
   conditions beaten and tortured. If still a reserve officer, why   
   was he not subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice? Or   
   was he? For decades, I and many other veterans have been curious   
   if Kerry does or does not have an honorable discharge.   
      
   In 1968, I was a 19-year-old U.S. Marine in Vietnam. During the   
   infamous Tet Offensive Battle to retake Hue City, 2,500 U.S.   
   Marines were up against 11,000 well-trained and equipped   
   soldiers of the North Vietnamese Army and an unknown number of   
   Viet Cong regiments. On February 6, 1968, in the midst of battle   
   and under intense enemy fire, I, Frank Thomas, and Alan McDonald   
   struck the enemy colors flying in the courtyard of the Capital   
   building and raised the Stars and Stripes. This report and   
   photos were carried by every news media in the free world. On   
   February 11, I was seriously wounded and medevaced from the   
   combat zone. By February 14, after 12 days in Hue, not even a   
   single Marine in my platoon was still standing. On May 3, 1968,   
   I received a near fatal wound. I know the cruel brutality of war   
   and what it means to serve my country and preserve our way of   
   life.   
      
   In 1985, Kerry and another freshman U.S. senator, Tom Harkin of   
   Iowa, whom I personally consider equally loathsome, went to   
   Nicaragua. They met with Marxist dictator Daniel Ortega and   
   returned with a shameful cease-fire agreement which was a slap   
   in the face to all Americans.   
      
   As President Obama’s Secretary of State, Kerry made serious   
   attempts to sign over our nation’s sovereignty to the United   
   Nations.   
      
   It seems to me that no matter how vile and despicable the words   
   and deeds of Democrats appear, with un-American rhetoric, they   
   get a free pass from the media. Time to open your eyes and ears   
   America.
