- Nightly News with Tom Brokaw, October 28, 2004

Brokaw: Someone has analyzed the President’s military aptitude tests and yours, and concluded that he has a higher IQ than you do.

Kerry: That’s great. More power. I don’t know how they’ve done it, because my record is not public. So I don’t know where you’re getting that from.

Does anyone else see the problem with this response? We should all know by now that while John Kerry and key members of the DNC (i.e. Terry McAullife) have demanded that President Bush sign the form 180, Senator Kerry has not. At least as of yesterday Kerry acknowledged this fact to the viewing public.

Unfortunately, much like everything else with Senator Kerry, he hasn’t exactly been truthful upon this issue.

MATTHEWS: What went out, it basically tracks what you did the other day on “Good Morning America.” And the question your staff put out, under your name, is, is Bush telling the truth, President Bush, when he said he had no special privileges or favoritism in jumping 150 places to get in the Air Guard in Texas?

What do you think about that? Is that something you care about? You want to know the truth?

KERRY: He ought to answer that question.

MATTHEWS: Why?

KERRY: Because I‘ve answered the questions. I released all my military records. Mr. Gillespie thought it was important enough to go travel to another state, make a big speech, demand that I release my records. I did. Everything. All of it. Including my officer fitness reports.

That was last April so we can give Kerry a bit of a break. Over the last seven months Kerry has changed his mind on a variety of issues so maybe that was a fluke appearance and/or statement. Nevermind, just last month Kerry said the following:

IMUS: A Freedom of Information Act request by “The Washington Post” regarding your military records produced six pages of information, while a spokesman for the Navy Personnel Command said there were at least 100 pages of information available, but he was not authorized to release them. Why can’t we see this stuff?

KERRY: We’ve posted my military records that they sent to me, or were posted on my Web site. You can go to my Web site, and all my — you know, the documents are there.

IMUS: So is — everything’s available?

KERRY: To the best of my knowledge. I think some of the medical stuff may still be out there. We’re trying to get it.

IMUS: “The Washington Post” doesn’t think that it’s all available, and they could go to your Web site. Maybe they did.

KERRY: Well, we released everything that they initially sent me.

So why is this important? Forget for a moment that Senator Kerry didn’t recieve an honorable discharge until 1978 when President Carter granted amnesty to anti-war protestors leaving a period of a few years in question for Senator Kerry. Think about how many times Kerry, the DNC and the media have demanded and sued under the Freedom of Information Act that President Bush release all his records despite the fact that Bush has signed his 180.

Senator Kerry has consistently lied over something so trivial as his signing form 180. Either he signed it or he didn’t. Was he for signing it before he was against signing it? Kerry knows he hasnt signed form 180, yet as of one month ago he is trying to say he has. If he did, then when? Did he sign it yesterday morning yet no one in the press has made mention of it?

The fact of the matter is that Senator Kerry has not signed form 180 to release his military records despite running on his military career, neglecting his entire Senatorial career. When you equate one’s military service as being the standard bearer for being President, it’s only fitting that you release your military records so we, the voting public, can decide if your military career is worth recieving our vote. There are a reported over 100 documents still under lock and key from Senator Kerry’s military record. Senator Kerry, what are you hiding?

Say Anything linked with He Released His Records Before He Didn't
