New Ads Have Kerry Playing 'John of the Jungle'
The Insider: The newest $25 million John Kerry advertising buy includes film of a young Kerry, rifle in hand, strutting through a Vietnamese jungle village in full field regalia.
Boston journalists who have seen it are guffawing. When Kerry has shown them this footage over the years he described it as a "re-enactment" staged by Kerry with a Super-8 home-movie camera. Others say the original shots may have been part of his defense for an anticipated court martial.
Kerry says in his latest ads: "I enlisted because I believed in service to country." Let's see, that and because his draft board had turned him down for a playboy year in France and he was about to be drafted to go to Vietnam as a common soldier.
Reminding everyone he had prepped at Fessenden and St. Paul's, and was tapped Skull and Bones at Yale, for Pete's sake, he opted like any elitist to enter the Navy as an officer candidate.
Then the ads say that Kerry "joined John McCain to find the truth about POWs and MIAs in Vietnam." What he did in fact was to have the committee records shredded to prevent the truth from being known that the United States knowingly left POWs behind in Communist hands.
The Kerry ads even claim that the Massachusetts senator cast the "decisive vote" in the 1993 deficit-reduction bill - a vote which in fact was cast by Sen. Bob Kerrey of Nebraska.
Teresa Heinz Kerry says in the ads: "John is the face of someone who's hopeful, who's generous of spirit and heart." Of which an insider observes, "Kerry has a face right off a Toulouse-Lautrec poster from the Moulin Rouge."
And, Teresa, if he is "generous of spirit and heart," why do his income-tax returns for the year you married him show that with a taxable income of $126,179 in 1995 he made charitable contributions of zilch, nada, zero ... not one red cent? In 1991 it was the same.
This guy is a stiff.
