Kerry Was Whistleblower In 71 Like Rowley (FBI) & Darby (Abu Ghraib)

[KittyWampus]

He was NOT anti-troop, anti-American or anti-US government.

He gave voice to those who had given testimony regarding war crimes that THEY committed.

He was objecting to a failed policy put forth by flawed politicians.

Why should he NOT be proud to have served his country?

It wasn't HIS fault, or any other soldier's fault, that they were subjected to bad leadership.

Was Rowley a traitor or anti-american for being a whistleblower regarding the incompetence of the FBI leading to 9/11?

Was Joe Darby anti-troop for being the whistleblower in the Army's practice of torture in Abu Ghraib, Iraq?

GET THIS STRAIGHT DU'ERS. KERRY WAS A WHISTLEBLOWER.

Speaking out against injustice, wrong doing or malfeasance is PATRIOTIC and doesn't mean one isn't proud of the INSTITUTION one is serving under.

It means there is a problem with the LEADERSHIP OF THAT INSTITUTION.

4. Kerry was an inspiration

to many who were afraid to protest the war. He didn't tell any state secrets, he told the simple truth.

5. Truth Which Faulted LEADERSHIP And NOT America OR TROOPS

he was pointing to the political and military leadership.
