John Kerry Has No Respect For Our Troops, Will Obama Give Him Defense Secretary Gig?

"You know, education, if you make the most of it, if you study hard and do your homework, and make an effort to be smart, uh, you can do well. If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq."--Senator John Kerry 2006




 Kerry's 2006 statement that our troops were stupid wasn't his only slander of the heroes who serve. Like when he came back from Vietnam

" … They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country."

 Or when he said a similar thing about our soldiers in Iraq:

And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the - of - the historical customs, religious customs."

In President Obama's tradition of finding the wrong person for the job, considering Senator John Kerry as his next Secretary of Defense makes sense.
