Skip to comments.Kerry never bled, says 'friend' Dole (Vanessa Kerry Speaks)
Posted on 08/23/2004 1:32:15 AM PDT by kattracks
WASHINGTON - Former Sen. Bob Dole joined Vietnam Swift boat vets who question John Kerry's combat heroics, claiming yesterday the Democratic presidential candidate's three Purple Hearts got him out of the war - but without a scratch.
Dole, a Kansas Republican who was horribly wounded in Italy during World War II and who lost his own presidential bid in 1996, said his "good friend" and "hero" Kerry embellished his war experiences.
"I respect his record, but three Purple Hearts and [Kerry] never bled that I know of," Dole told CNN's "Late Edition." "I mean, they're all superficial wounds."
Dole also faulted Kerry for post-Vietnam comments about military atrocities. "Maybe [Kerry] should apologize to all the other 2.5million veterans who served," Dole said.
The continued carping over Kerry's heroism appears to be taking a toll on his children.
"I just have the question of which wound do you want to see? Which scar do you need to see to prove that my father served?" Vanessa Kerry told CBS' "Face the Nation."
Last week, Kerry slammed President Bush - who has not condemned ads by the anti-Kerry group Swift Boat Veterans for Truth - for allowing supporters to do his "dirty work."
Bush campaign manager Ken Mehlman again denied that the campaign has any ties to the Swift boat spots, but hours earlier, Bush-Cheney veterans adviser Ken Cordier, who was in one of the ads, resigned.
Among other revelations touted by Kerry aides decrying the GOP "smear campaign" were reports that party leaders in Minnesota and Florida promoted the anti-Kerry group's ads with flyers and on the Web.
There also were signs that the critics' stories, while clearly hurting Kerry, are showing cracks under scrutiny. Several veterans who personally witnessed Kerry's heroics have recently come forward for the first time to defend him, and official documents also cast serious doubt on the claims of cowardice.
When "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace thrust several after-action combat reports at longtime Kerry critic Van O'Dell, the ex-gunner's mate admitted he lacks proof on paper that his former superior fabricated his deeds. "I do not have a single document," he replied. "Just seven eyewitness accounts."

We know he served, dear. The question is did he lie?
And no, we don't want to see his scars (especilly no the one on his a...er.. buttocks. We just want to see his records.
That your father did, in fact, "serve" is scarcely at issue here, Vanessa, my poppet.
On which SIDE he served, on the other hand... :)
"I just have the question of which wound do you want to see? Which scar do you need to see to prove that my father served?" Vanessa Kerry told CBS' "Face the Nation."
To prove her father SERVED in VietNam.
She's as dumb as he is.
that piece of rice in his buttocks is imprinted with the NV Flag ...proof postive he served.
"I just have the question of which wound do you want to see? Which scar do you need to see to prove that my father served?" Vanessa Kerry told CBS' "Face the Nation."
None of them, sweety. Just the medical records is fine. By the way, does he know how "French" it is to send women out to defend him?
"I just have the question of which wound do you want to see? Which scar do you need to see to prove that my father served?" Vanessa Kerry told CBS"
Erm... the one in the But-Tox ???
or is it Bo-Tox?
Run Forest Run! (for the Whitehouse)
The acorn doesn't fall very far from the tree, does it?
Vanessa Kerry. Which one is she? The who showed the whole world her breasts in France, or the one who looks like a hatchet with blond hair?
I suppose we'll find out who they are about the same time we'll get to review JF'nK's military records.
And if he did - was the blood BLUE.... ?
"Face the Nation" should be renamed to "Get Your Daughter to Face the Nation"
Could someone please post this article/interview with Kerry/Edwards and the plan for Iraq and more. Interview by Inkeep at Redstate site. "The disengagement" By: tacitus
Ed. note: This is part one of a two-part piece both parts at site. http://www.redstate.org/story/2004/8/7/123128/4371 Thankyou all
Anybody listen to Drudge last night? I had the radio on in the background and wasn't listening too much until I heard him say something about getting Kerry to drop his drawers and show us his scar.
I didn't catch the context of the conversation, but now that his daughter's bringing it up, maybe it's a good idea, LOL.
Dole asks for an apology for 2.5 million vets. Did any strategist on the Kerry campaign ever splain to John F'n that you can't alienate 2.5 million people, plus their families, then trash the National guard(and their families). Don't know the multiple here, but that's a high number of people to trash and hope to win an election. Keep up the good work John.
Vanessa, buttercup, {in the spirit of us calling her poppet and dear}, stay on the porch and let the big dogs go with this one. You don't want Bob Dole AKA Uncle Bob going medieval on your darling little butt now do you?
The hatchet.
You don't understand. The strategy now is to say the Kerry served in Nam while Bush (like Clinton) did not. Now dishonorable service in Nam trumps honorable service on US soil, and Guard service is equated to draft dodging. Only from the mind of a 'Rat.
I sure don't want to see the "rice/*ss wound on Kerry!
Team Kerry has desperation written all over it.
Well it doesn't matter which ones he shows us. Unless he signs a release so we can see his military records we have no idea if the scars he is showing us are the ones he got the purple hearts for. Kerry could make this all go away if he signed a release for all his records. Now go back to daddy and tell him to prove us wrong.
We have heard of the comparison of their service to their country.
Now, let us hear of their comparative records of disservice to their country.
And Earth to FNC: Enough with the pi$$ing and moaning about whether this Swift boat controversy is newsworthy. It is. If you would just investigate and answer the question of whether Kerry is an opportunistic pathological liar, IT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL.
We report, you decide, remember?
This is getting stranger and stranger!
If Kerry's wounds were one bandaid, one contusion and one gauze patch, how can he even find them 35 years later?
Is this the daughter we've seen far too much of? I don't care to see scars from being "pushed" off his snowboard by his secret service, I want to see the original untouched military records and that common man's wife's full tax return.
One better...let's see some X-Rays. I would wager considerable money that he has nothing in his butt, as of this minute. Give that liar 30 minutes notice and he would have something surgically implanted to save his sorry @ss. Wonder how many hand scans he has gone through at airports from making the scanner go off. Answer: NONE
"I bled in Vietnam before I didn't!"
Don't wager too heavily on that particular proposition, pal.
He is a liberal, after all. :)
This is curious too. I have a bunch of scars and my kids couldn't identify the origin of any of them.
Do you suppose he told his children stuff like "And this is where I was grievously wounded in the Battle of the Chateaubriand etc"?
Looks like the Navy needs to institute multiple sign-offs on after action reports.
I noticed that Reuters is headlining essentially the same story with "Vietnam Vet Says Has No Proof for Claim Kerry Lied". Don't courts accept eyewitness accounts as proof? Or are just documents "proof" these days?
Bring on the microscope!
Why the hell is Vanessa Kerry on Face the Nation??
Kerry will regret he brought up Vietnam. It was a controversial war and still is. It's sheared in the american psyche. He opened a can of worms.
How to tell someone is lying.
1. Their eyes cast down when they lie.
2. They add too much.
3. Nervous laughter.
4. They feign ignorance about something you know they know.
5. They take charge of the conversation to distract/divert you.
6. They play on your friendship: asking you to just trust them,
7. You sense that something is off; any clue will do.
8. You find YOUR eyes squinting and your head angling several degrees.
9. When you ask for an explanation/clarification, there's a momentary gap while they conjure up something.
10. Explanations are given, that, while plausible, aren't good enough for YOU.
This piece was originally submitted by Thomas J. Leonard, Infopreneur, who can be reached at email@example.com, or visited on the web.
Document are not MAGIC.
In this case, the documents allegedly were written by Kerry.
So we have dueling eye-witness reports.
Kerry's report vs. seven of his fellow sailors.
Who are you going to believe?
A new twist in the " I saved the hamster" story?
This is Dole slapping Harkin for those remarks about Cheney.
Because she's the only Kerry with the guts to show up?
" Kerry never bled "
It was just ...ketchup !
Pretty dramatic language all right. But not very courageous of Kerry to send his daughter out to defend his heroism. I mean, can you even imagine George Bush putting one of his girls on the political pyre?
LOL! I wouldn't have quite the same interest as you in that matter, but if I hear that she's been flashing, I'll be sure and ping you!
I did read something about her having "been with" Ben Affleck.
So, I guess he's seen them......
Thanks, lost my head saying that...should have added the word "metal" after watching him fondling the "boy".

Comment Kefir (Score 2) 183
All what's needed is the patient making their own, home-made goat kefir (if they're not terribly allergic to dairy -- although even dairy allergies are a para-symptom of wheat allergy in reality). Kefir's 43 different bacteria and yeasts can kill CDiff, and it's being shown to do so in research (Minnesota university professor/doctor tried it recently too). But the kefir must be home-made (bottled ones don't include the full spectrum of bacteria/yeasts because of bottling regulations regarding alcohol the yeasts create), it must be from goat, sheep or buffalo milk (for less casein irritation, as the A2 casein is more compatible with humans), and it must be fermented for 24 hours (to minimize the amount of lactose ingested). Two-three cups a day of kefir (with a few berries in it, maybe with some pine and walnut nuts, also maybe with some raw, unfiltered and local honey too), and CDiff should be back in check within 3-4 days. No need for antibiotics, for pill probiotics, or doctors for that matter.

Playing other games. What? Yes, what keeps me playing a MMORPG for an extended period of time is to play other games. I used to run around four games a year - not concurrently - no, rather one at a time. Though, at times, I might have two subs running as I switched games during the month. Might be a case of playing Game X for 2-3 months, then Game Y for a month, then Game X again for a couple of months, then Game Y for 2-3 months, then maybe Game Y or Game X... heck, might even play one for 4-6 months before switching. But it's the switching that keeps me playing... So as the years passed, I was still playing a group of games over the long term. It wasn't a case of hopping from Game A to Game B to Game C to Game D to Game E to Game F to Game G.... it was playing a group of games over the long term.
yep thats my approach,but mine is more accidental than deliberate..sometimes i guess i just need a break for certain games.like lotro for instance..aint played it for about 3 months but i know when ex pack comes i'll be there immediately.

lol the first step is admiting you have a problem
No matter how cynical you become, its never enough to keep up - Lily Tomlin
There are a few things (only #1 is in particular order):
#1. Friends. I require rl friends to play along with and hopefully enjoyable guld mates. Any game that is solo or forces me to solo all the time (even though I tend to do it a lot) I get bored of playing. I do not play any single players games or consoles. The social aspect of gaming keeps me playing. Console and single player games are for youth or frankly people with no lives. The real world is vastly more interesting than sitting at a screen playing against a computer. I'd rather read a book.
2. Vast world and non-linear leveling. I require a huge world with interesting sites. Most modern mmo's are WAY too small. Any game that has only one leveling path is typically abandoned by me withing a couple months. A vast world also mean no hand holding. I simply cannot stand super accurate and detailed maps showing me where everything in the game is, where the mobs are and every quest point. Some of these so called fantasy games have better maps than todays high tech GPS devices. Games that are good with this are Wow and Lotro and usually more sandbox style games.
3. Complex character development with lots of customization. Frankly I am tired of trees but have put up with them. I love lateral progression or many things to progress. This may appear as a grind to many but anything that makes my character more powerful that is within my power is fun for me. This also has to be outside of gear progression alone. I hate gear progression. I like getting new gear but if it is the ONLY method to increase my characters power and resides within it's own mini-game I start to lose interest. An example of a game that keeps me interested despite it's age is Lotro. Your character gains power from: traditional and class specific gear upgrades through dungeons, world, quest and crafting, virtues, traits, legendary item construction and advancement and hell maybe others I am not thinking of. At any given moment there is always something you can do to increase your characters potential. Most games you simply level, train and *POOF* your power is flat again for another level as there is nothing to do other than perhaps finding a better gear piece. Frankly I miss the random stats gear from AC. I loved the ability to go out and adventure in difficult zones/dungeons of your own choice to find gear. The gear you find may not even be the stats or type you want yet still useful through modification with crafting. Modern mmo's are about heading to only one dungeon or grinding one rep/tokens to get only one BIS item that you cannot modify and force your to be a clone of everyone else with your build/class.
4. Epic lore. I need to feel the story is greater than everything else in the game. The setting needs to pull me in. The latest failing of this has been GW2. I feel absolutely nothing once logging in. The game wants me to do nothing but go kill and the story element is the worst I have seen in years. Various older mmo's have had starter areas I would repeat over and over again simply because how fun they were. Carrying this further into the game is the challenge but some manage to do it. As I am playing Lotro mostly atm I will mention that as an example. There are always reminders everywhere you go that the world and story that is going on is far more important than you. So many other mmo's seem only to be a play ground for you character to advance in with little interested in pulling you into a complex web of story and immersion.
Ultimately there is no perfect mmo for me atm. It requires a world like Dereth of Telon that is open without zones and only very loosely defined zones of difficulty. I love venturing into areas where you really are not sure if you can take on the mobs there. One element long destroyed by modern mmo's is the ability to take on mobs far above your level range. In AC you could take on a level 150 with your level 50 is properly prepared. I uninstall a mmo shortly after finding out a mob 2 levels above you is high impossible (ie. Allods Online).

1) Longterm goals related to character development I like the possibility to obtain better gear after level cap. I am not so much keen on the way WoW does it. It became too grindy and the fact that the gear gets reset every now and then also does not make it any better for me. As I said, I like longterm goals. You mentioned Lineage II. I really like the way gear progression was handled back then (Chronicle 1, 2). It was really difficult and time consuming to obtain the best in slot gear. I would say that for regular people with a job, it was nearly impossible. There was still something to look forward to. However, I did not like the way towards the gear. It was a terrible grind. You said you liked it and I accept that. I also used to have fun grinding mobs, but I believe that the way towards the goals in an MMO can be more interesting than that. The progression does not necessarily have to be only about gear. Gaining skills, crafting, stats, perks, talents, whatever it may be which makes your character stronger in a longterm makes MMORPG more attractive for me. 2) Friends + Guild I believe that it is one of the main reasons why I am still playing WoW. There is my old guild consisting of people I have been playing with for many years now whom I met in the game back then. 3) Fun factor To a large extent influenced by the previous two points, but really...if the game had the best longterm goals and there would be bunch of my real life friends playing it, but the gameplay would be boring, I probably would quit it anyway. 4) Lore In vast majority of games, I really do not care about the lore. However, there are games in which the lore simply is important for me. In WoW, it has always been a significant aspect, for me (up till the death of Arthas). I used to play Warcraft 3 back then and I really liked the lore. The campaign was absolutely fantastic. Suddenly, they released WoW which allowed me to enter the huge world and be part of the lore. It was really cool.
I do agree that modern MMO's need to have more goals that are interesting and diverse but for longevity its going to be very hard to stop grind or should I say repetiton getting in there somewhere. Companies do not have the resources to bang out top quality content, innovation and variety to stave the onset of repetition IMO.

Working towards gear/skills that will make me better in PvP
Dynamic player generated content
Usually for me tis character progression.. when that stops i usually find myself getting bored of the game.. Tho saying that if the game has good PVP the means somthing.. i.e. open world PVP with player created forts and so on then it usually keeps me around a lot longer
Interaction with the world and players.
Not just a treadmill that force me to do the same thing over and over again for gear progession.
for the most part, pvp. though if pve didn't exist i might be more inclined to turn to another game quicker. i played an mmo about a month ago that really disappointed me because you had to level up to enjoy the pvp. i didn't like that at all. constant grinding and questing gets boring, imo.

What kept me playing darkfall was the constant fear of loss and hope for gain. Cant say anything has got me as excited and as alert as that game.
Kind of a gambler's mentality, no? Well, I can say I hate gambling, which would explain why "fear of loss" does nothing for me. I understand the hope for gain though, but oddly, it's not partnered with a fear of loss for me. A brief fear of dying is okay, but fear of loss like in free for all loot PvP......uhm, no. As a matter of fact, if that's in a game, I won't play it. For instance, I liked UO POST TRAMMEL. You won't find many who would say that, but I enjoyed the game much more then.
What keeps me playing a game is some amount of freedom and a sandboxy feel to the game. Notice I did not say a pure sandbox. The game I played the longest was EQ2, then WoW, Fallen Earth, and now I'm sure GW2 will win one of the "longest played" titles in my collection too (not counting single player games which I also have a list of longest played). I played UO and like I said, preferred it after Trammel was added. I don't particularly care for PvP and I love crafting and PvE. All players are different, hmm?
To stay long term, a game also must have a beautiful game world and lots of places to explore. If the game world isn't beautiful, like say EQ2 (parts of it are, a lot is not), then it needs to have other things that I find vastly entertaining like housing and carpentry or collections.

I would add/elaborate with a ruleset that allows this freedom and the social aspect of guild cities/seige warfare. The games that I have played the longest get me invested with this, because it is not some script that hits an endpoint (or in the case of raiding, a script that plays like a broken record at endgame), but a neverending challenge of politics, warfare, and wealth accrual that you can use to build the landscape around you.
ditto, so far GW2 (for me) has some of these aspects.and no im not a fanboi, i actually just bought it on a whim said wtf, was not going to buy it. honestly glad I did.
For me, that'd be the Gameplay.
The usual, Guild mates/friends, fun & interesting Pve/Pvp Content & Class Balance
I played WoW up until WotLK, played RoM for 2 years and now Rift.
I am F2P player. I support games when I feel they deserve my money and I want the items enough.
I don't troll, and I don't take kindly to trolls.

WOW is the only one that holds my attention for more than 1 year.
Why? thats the theme of the thread.
Why .. that is a good question.
I suppose because WOW has interesting enough combat mechanics, and enough non-repeatable content (at least while leveling). And also becuase there is a drought in ARPG. To be honest, after a while i got bored with WOW too .. but expansion & content patch sometimes get me back.
Example .. WOTLK gets me into raiding. Got sick of it so quit after 1 or 2 tier of content in CATA but LFR brought me back.
I am still debating whether to play MOP (as i have quit for a while playing D3).
Replayability: multiple distinctive races, classes and levelling paths. The latter requiring either multiple separate solo quest paths or distinctive mob-grinding* combined with some distinctive solo quests** so even if you levelled up the same race / class combo in the same zone there were still different ways of doing it.
Sort of like Skyrim or Morrowind or Fallout 3 except with multiple start locations and without the "kill the dark lord" type quest that starts from the beginning.
*distinctive mob grinding means mobs aren't all the same so mobs might be solo or grouped and each type of mob has some special characteristic that makes fighting them different from other mobs
** class based or faction or morality choice based so different ones are available depending on choices you make

This is what Lineage 2 did well each mob had its own strengths and weaknesses that make it difficult for certain class to fight solo and there were open world raid bosses that required big groups to tackle also different level mobs roamed the same areas so you had to be on your toes.

Meet Inaugural Google Journalism Fellow Jan Boyles
There were 2,300 applicants for the first-ever Google Journalism Fellowship, which places fellows at various journalistic organizations to work on projects ranging from investigative reporting to press freedom. SOC PhD student Jan Boyles was one of only eight selected for this prestigious position.
"I have the highest of admiration for Google, and this was an amazing opportunity that I couldn't pass up," says Boyles. "When I got the phone call that I was chosen, I was flabbergasted."
Boyles will be working with Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism where she worked last summer doing research.
"I like their collegial environment and I have made many great friends there. Being able to return is a great opportunity," says Boyles.
Boyles and the other Google fellows will also have the opportunity to travel to Miami for the first week of the fellowship, where they will spend time in newsrooms and with the Knight Foundation learning about its funding priorities.
The fellowship will culminate with a week at Google Headquarters in Mountain View, California. There, Boyles and her colleagues will work with designers and have a chance to be a part of the inner-workings of the corporation listed as the best company to work for in 2012 by Forbes.
"Google is so vital to the news industry," she explains. "Because the environment of news is changing so constantly and rapidly, people no longer look at one provider. They look at the whole spectrum. Google News brings all of that together, and makes itself a force to be reckoned with."
As a journalist and a PhD student doing research on the future of the news industry, a chance to add a Google fellowship to her already extensive list of accomplishments is an opportunity Boyles greatly appreciates.
Boyles also values the time she has spent in the PhD program in SOC, as well as the people who have helped her continue to pursue success there.
"The PhD program has opened so many amazing doors and possibilities. The faculty has been so wonderful in terms of mentorship; they have always been accessible by phone and e-mail and professors have put a lot of investment in us," she says.
Boyles' advice to other students: "Don't be scared. Try and go for the largest opportunity you can. You may get that surprise phone call saying, 'We want you to work for Google.'"

There are two major types of congenital adrenal hyperplasia:
The most obvious sign of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia in girls is often abnormal-appearing genitals that look more male than female, which may include an enlarged clitoris — a condition called ambiguous external genitalia. Other signs and symptoms in girls also reflect exposure to higher levels of male sex hormones (androgens) while in the womb.
Signs and symptoms of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia in infants include:
Signs and symptoms of classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia in children and adults include:
This form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia is milder and usually becomes evident in late childhood or early adulthood.
Signs and symptoms are typically most apparent in adolescent girls and women and often include:
In both females and males, signs and symptoms of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia also may include:
Contact your child's pediatrician if your child has signs and symptoms that seem to suggest congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Also, if you're pregnant and may be in a high-risk group for congenital adrenal hyperplasia because of your own medical history or your ethnicity, ask your doctor about genetic counseling. Your doctor can also discuss with you possible treatment of your fetus before birth (prenatal treatment).

Naomi Speakman and Lloyd de Beer,
curators, British Museum
A chance discovery in an Essex field by a four year-old boy has led to the latest addition to the British Museum's medieval collection. Beautiful, both in its simplicity and elegance, the Hockley Pendant is a diamond-shaped reliquary dating from the beginning of the sixteenth century, and would have been worn by a wealthy individual as a discreet statement of piety.
As a result of the Treasure Act, and the reporting of finds through the Portable Antiquities Scheme, this is just one of many treasures acquired by museums across the country in the past year, so that such finds can be enjoyed by all.
The decoration on this piece reveals the dual nature of religious jewellery in the early sixteenth century, as a decoration and a holy amulet. The pendant is an excellent example of the intertwining of the secular and the religious in the Middle Ages. The front shows a sombre Saint Helena supporting the cross, while the back shows the Five Wounds of Christ, from his hands, feet and heart. Around the rim are inscribed the names of the Three Magi (or Wise Men): Casper, Melchior and Balthazar.
At just over three centimetres high, the pendant displays a stunning level of evocative detail. The cross shows flecked grains of wood and the Five Wounds of Christ weep blood shaped like tears, which rain down the pendant.
Originally the pendant would have looked slightly different, with the flowers, wounds and names of the Magi all filled with painted enamel. This interplay between gold and enamel was a particularly dramatic feature of late medieval metalwork, and gives us an indication of the high level of skill involved in creating such an intricate piece of jewellery.
The interior of the pendant is now empty, but it would once have held a relic, possibly of the True Cross, which was said to have been brought by St Helena to Constantinople from the Holy Land, and was thought to be the cross on which Christ was crucified.
This object allows us to better understand the enduring physical relationship between the living and the dead in the Middle Ages and the amazing depth and vibrancy of the material culture from this fascinating period in history.
