1.0 out of 5 stars Lieutenant Flip-Flop-The New Liar, April 21, 2004
By John P (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
The reason why you don't see the image of the book cover here, is probably the same reason why new copies of this book are no longer available: John Kerry doesn't want the American public see it! John Kerry has been actively involved in keeping the publishers of this book from releasing new printings. I guess despite his many short-comings, he is apparently smart enough to know this would raise way too many questions about his integrity (if he has ANY!) and his activities after the war. In closing, I let the US Constitution give its opinion on this:

No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.
-- United States Constitution, 14th Amendment, Section 3

2.0 out of 5 stars Ketchup Kerry, February 28, 2004
By jamescroak (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
How does one win three purple hearts in three months without ever having seen the inside of a hospital, well you won't find the answer in this book. Indeed the first and third purple hearts required no medical treatment at all, the second one two stiches for a small cut. But, presto, three purple hearts and according to Navy regulations one is out of combat forever, and thus so was Kerry. Oh, and he also won the bronze and silver star during his recuperation from his multiple, well what shall we call it, "wounds." I read this book when it came out, I was in college and it was assigned for my Poly Sci class as it was called then. We were very impressed as only nineteen year olds could be, three decades later my B.S. detector is tripping off the scale.

1.0 out of 5 stars A New Literary Classic?, May 4, 2004
By A Customer
Odd. I wonder why this book isn't available. The author is the Democratic party nominee for President of the United States of America.
