Traitor Kerry Meeting With Iran...

[seer]

Why isn't this illegal? Didn't the leftists jump all over Flynn for this?

Seems likely he has been telling Iranian officials to hold out making a deal with Trump and telling them to wait until 2021 when they hope to be in control again

The free beacon is a bit sensational and exaggerates a lot. I notice they aren't using a lot of actual quotes but filling in the sparse quotes with opinion.
I am skeptical.

Here is the actual interview text:

Now THAT is more like "Treason" than what the leftists are hollering about.

Why is John Kerry a traitor? I have a feeling you're referring to something other than this, which is definitely not a good thing.

This, and what he did in front of Congress while I was overseas and many of my friends/fellow Marines were "in country."

What did he do in front of Congress?

Basically said the American service men were murderers, war criminals.

Kerry is as phony as a 3 dollar bill.

After serving in Vietnam, he became an anti-war activist, and supposedly threw his medals over the fence at the White House, along with other protestors.
He has flip-flopped back and forth about this...

"No, it wasn't the medals, it was the ribbons" "there is no distinction between the medals and the ribbons" "I gave them all back" "I still have them".....

Did Kerry Discard Vietnam Medals?

[I] gave back the others," he said.

The statement directly contradicts Kerry's most recent claims on the disputed subject to the Los Angeles Times last Friday. "I never ever implied that I did it, " Kerry told the newspaper, responding to the question of whether he threw away his medals in protest.

"I'm proud of my medals. I always was proud of them," he told Jennings in December, adding that he had only thrown away his "ribbons" and the medals of two other veterans who could not attend the protest.

The guy is a total stranger to the truth and a disgrace to the uniform.

Maybe you should take him seriously, and not literally?

I might be sounding a bit dumb seer, but I wanna know what you think. I have a feeling you're talking about more than medals being thrown over a fence in a protest. I did some google searching, and I hear he was at a hearing where he, and 150 other soldiers confessed to having seeing US soldiers torturing the Vietnamese, civilians getting massacred, men raping women and things like that?

Is that what you're talking about?

It meant way more than that to to the people who were actually seriously wounded, and the families of soldiers who were posthumously awarded medals, Leon. I don't find this funny in the least. He made a big show about throwing his medals over the fence, but it was a phony publicity stunt - the guy is a fraud.

Is there a law that was actually broken? We're not at war with Iran, so he can't be charged with conspiring with the enemy (although they're certainly not our friends, either). Is there a rule that says that private citizens can't conduct unofficial political business with foreign governments?

I agree with you that it's sketchy, but I'm not certain he committed a crime.

Anti-war protests tend to make families of soldiers angry. Its important to them that their sons and daughters died in a war that was fought for good reasons. I don't know the heart of John Kerry. But I can't for the life of me see why he should be called a traitor for throwing back medals.

Doesn't say we have to be at war with them.

If he had actually "thrown back medals", Leon, that would be one thing. He didn't throw his OWN medals back - he lied about it. He has come up with multiple lies to try to justify his deception. He KEPT his medals, but joined in with others who were actually throwing their own medals back - so Kerry was a fraud. A faker. A phony. He PRETENDED to be throwing back his own medals, and bragged about throwing them back, then later, bragged about having them.

He used these medals for his own self interests.
