Um, since when did 'proud' Vietnam vets throw their medals over the fence at the WH and call their fellow troops murderers and rapist?
Not seeing much of Ollie on FAUX News lately, hummm...I wonder why?

Dear Senator Kerry,
We have not yet met, but I feel moved now to write you, in view of the latest assault on your honor, and the cruel blows being dealt you by fate.
Your life has been since the last election, when those hanging chads in Ohio tricked all those people into voting for Buchanan, or Nader; and the fact that you lost the rest of the country by 3 million votes proved that the fraud had been everywhere.
And before that were those baseless attacks by those 200-some veterans, paid off by Karl Rove in l970, on the chance that 34 years later he'd be running George W. Bush for president and needed to soften you up.
Everyone knows they had no case whatsoever (beyond the fact you were calling them rapists and killers), just as everyone knows how tasteless it is to mock your lifestyle.
Everyone knows how hard you work for your money, how much you deserve it, and how hard to must be to find not one, but two women with quite so much dough. (If you were only a woman, people would see your story as the fairy tale it is.)
Even worse, it is mean, false, and mendacious to say that you were trying to call our brave men in Iraq and in uniform mentally challenged, when it was clear as day that you meant this to apply to the president, who ran rings around you when you last met in electoral combat; and whose
grades in college were higher than yours.
With this in mind, it's no surprise you went postal. Who in your position wouldn't have? Anyone would have called the president's spokesman "pathetic" and referred to the "right-wing nut-jobs," as you did in the formal statement you put out to the press.
What was especially moving was this emotional note in your statement: "I'm not going to be lectured by a stuffed suit White House mouthpiece standing behind a podium, or doughy Rush Limbaugh, who no doubt today will take a break from belittling Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's disease to start lying about me just as they have lied about Iraq."
How right you are to realize that attacking a disabled person or one who has suffered a serious illness is the worst thing that can be done by a civilized person,
so dire that, of course, you feel free to insult Rush Limbaugh, a radio performer who has carried on uncomplainingly in spite of his deafness, and Tony Snow, who has recently suffered a bout with serious cancer.
I am deeply moved, too, by the following statement, obviously regarding the wartime service of President Bush in the Texas Air National Guard: "It disgusts me that these Republican hacks, who have never worn the uniform of our country, lie and distort so blatantly and carelessly about those who have."
Well said, as the only ones permitted to lie and distort about anything are valiant warriors such as Howard Dean and Bill Clinton, whose heroic exploits at Oxford and on the ski slopes of Aspen we all remember so well.
The only thing that consoles me in light of your troubles is that you are never without consolations, such as an $8,000 bike, or a $l00,000 motorboat, or a Lear jet, or the five mansions owned by your wife.
Get away to one of them, or all of them, and go skiing; or sailing; and feel the wind in your face, or your hair.
Speaking of hair, go to Christophe, and get a new rinse or hairdo; this always makes me feel better. Get a manicure, or a facial, or a fresh shot of Botox. Before it gets cold, go windsurfing off of your place in Nantucket. Those flowered shorts sure were cute.
"Life is unfair," as the first JFK put it, and nothing is less fair than the fact that the war-hero gambit worked for him but not for you.
Of course, JFK didn't come home and call his old buddies war criminals. And none of the people who knew, or knew of, him ever called him a pompous and self-seeking blowhard who was making things up.
Nonetheless, I want to congratulate you again for standing up to those decorated war veterans, deaf men, and cancer survivors who so meanly attacked you, and please keep on doing it.
Keep on talking, just as you have, up to and right through November 7, or at least until the polls close in most districts. Come to think of it, don't stop even then.
A letter to Senator Kerry.

Allow me to assist you on this one Buck. The joke begins when Kerry speaks, and it ends when he's silent.
Don't forget the unecesssary wartime president... who is wrong!
'a radio performer who has carried on uncomplainingly in spite of his deafness, and Tony Snow, who has recently suffered a bout with serious cancer."
Did Kerry ridicule fat- 's deafness or snow-job's cancer?
Did fat- attack MJF's pro-stem-cell stand? (which was THE real issue being pandered to for 10M ignorant dumb s that listen to fat- )

I think if Kerry screwed up the english language as much as Bush does this wouldn't have been such a big issue.
You guys are clueless. John Kerry said what he meant and meant what he said! This wasn't a "botched joke", it was a slam on the military and any reasonable person understands that. For example, the following e-mails were sent to the Laura Ingraham show - and other conservative talk radio sites are reporting the same thing.
John Kerry Listener Reaction
At a campaign event in California, John Kerry said that "In our education, if you make the most of it and you study hard and you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart you can do well; if you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq." Our listeners, many with military experience under their belts, responded. Watch the video of John Kerry.

I have two sons on active duty. My oldest was a distinguished graduate from the Air Force Academy ('02) in Management [AFA doesn't do laude, etc., they use the term "distinguished graduate."] He is currently an AC-130 pilot rotating regularly to the Middle East. My second son graduated from Notre Dame ('04), summa laude, and was the Business schools valedictorian candidate for his class. He is currently serving on the nuclear attack submarine USS Cheyenne based at Pearl Harbor. Needless to say, their undergraduate grade points were far above Sen. Kerry's GPA. Kerry's comments reflect his own VietNam syndrome. He thinks that there is a DRAFT exemption for college students! Truly, he is lost in the '60s.
Geoff R - Camarillo, CA
Laura, my grandfather served in WW1 and was educated and a college graduate. Kerry's comments once again are an incitement on the entire U.S. military. I hope that CNN, MSNBC and all the other mainstream media call on Mr. Kerry to issue an apology to the U.S. military and there families. Shame, shame, shame.

I am a USAF veteran. I'm also the daughter of a US Army veteran, the wife of a USAF veteran, and the mother of a US Army veteran - who, by the way, is a college graduate and recently returned from Iraq. And I am furious! How DARE that Boston baked snob look down his elitist nose at members of the American Military. Especially since, when it's convenient, he claims to be one of "us". He's not fit to shine our boots, let alone join our ranks.I have a couple of words for John Kerry. The second one is "You!"
Carla H - Greeley, CO
Regarding John Kerry's comment in California.... If the stupid people all go to Iraq, why isn't John Kerry over there?!?!? GRRRRR. What an idiot.
Roger M - Anchorage, AK
John Kerry's remarks regarding the young people in today's military being limited in their education is the reason why they are in Iraq, maybe that's why he was on a river boat in Vietnam for his cowardly three month tour . . . he wasn't smart enough to command a larger ship like a destroyer escort which many junior officers commanded at that time. Most river boat commanders were enlisted Chief Petty Officers, it's obvious he wasn't even able to meet that caliber of leadership. To this day I'm surprised his crew didn't throw him overboard, what a moronic fool! I appreciate your radio program and what you do! Veteran, U.S. Navy
Luke B - Frederick, MD
I am an "uneducated" graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point, N.Y. I apparently didn't make much of my life because I also got a doctorate and spent more than 30 years as a loser defending our country in the U.S. Army. My daughter and son-in-law are apparently also losers because they also graduated from West Point. Not long ago, my daughter completed a tour in the middle east (Iraq and Kuwait). John Kerry (who, more than any other person I can think of, should know what a loser really is) continues to disgust me every time he opens his mouth and degrades our brave military men and women.
Lt Col Paul B - Virginia Beach, VA
That Kerry made this statement comes as no surprise. It's also perfectly in character for him, and illuminates WHY his shipmates almost to a man, rejected him as a presidential candidate, and indeed, worked very hard to keep him out of the White House. For Kerry - it's all about Kerry, all the time. His current wife, Tereza, is the Marie Antoinette of our time...
Sandee J - Centreville, VA
Laura, great show! I called Kerry's office in DC and let him know how disgusted I am about his comments about our military. Thanks for getting us fired up !
Shirley S - Bastrop, LA
Hi Laura.Love your show. We have 3 young men in this town (brothers) in the military. Two in Iraq at this time. One has been there and is preparing to go again. All three are college graduates with outstanding intelligence and have more sense in their little finger than Mr. Kerry will ever have with his fancy education. These young men CHOSE to serve their country instead of seeking only money at this time. All three are married with famillies.Remember them in your prayers.
God bless.
Mike S - Seminole, FL
John Kerry is a disgrace. He is ill informed about our troops. Our son is a Marine with the 24th MEU. In 2004 he was in a tank in Fallujah. He left college to join the Marines. Ouur son-in-law is a Green Beret now at an undisclosed location. He has a law degree from SMU and joined as an enlistedman. John Kerry has no idea about our young troops. We have two deployment stars on our cars and in our window at home.
Michael B - Kennewick, WA
John Kerry lacks both the intellectual and emotional IQ to recognize his arrogance is hurtful to the Nation and its citizens who strive to put their Country over their self interests. He needs to retreat to the succor of the privilaged class and leave real people alone.
Karen T - Scottsdale, AZ
I'd just like to say to Kerry and to all liberals who think our military are nothing but uneducated dummies -- my nephew is getting one of the best educations offered in the world today (if not the best) at Annapolis and, when he graduates, will be giving back five years of his life in military service so idiots like Kerry can say stupid things that they know absolutely nothing about and not have to worry about getting thrown in prison or beheaded. Great is our military!
Mike L - Kennesaw, GA
Laura,
You misquoted John........
Education, if you make the most of it ... you can do well. If you don't, you Misquote......
get stuck in Iraq.
Correction....
end up voting for Democratic Senators from Massachusetts.

David C - Black Canyon City, AZ
John Kerry needs to finally take what's coming to him for his lying about the Vietnam Veterans and going to the Paris Peace Talks while still a commissioned Naval Officer and dealing with the North Vietnamese delegation. He lied to congress as well about the Vietnam vets and the atrocities. I served in Vietnam for 4 tours as a Medic with Infantry, Combat Engineers, Aviation and Helicopter Amb. (DustOff). My family fought in WW11, WW1, Civil War on both sides and the Revolutionary War. They may not have been College grads but they were Americans. If we want to get rid of him join the Vietnam Veterans Legacy Foundation they are going to take him to court.
Dan U - Brazil, IN
John Kerry made an unforgivable comment about our troops when he said students who don't study and try hard in school will end up in Iraq. If you don't spend the majority of your show today demanding a formal apology from him I won't listen to your show anymore. He is without a doubt one of the most hateful, de able men in our Senate, and is a poster child for term limits. I have a nephew in Bagdad who has a college degree. He also has a wife and two small children at home. John Kerry is married to a multi-hundred millionaire and is so out of touch with reality, I think he has become senile.
David K - Louisville, KY
I hope you're all over John Kerry's "STUPID" statement about our troops in Iraq!
This could (should) end his career... but further, it should help Republicans in the election... another Dumb-o-cratic implode!
Love your show.
Mike P - Cleveland, OH
I heard Bill Bennett quote John Kerry's ridiculous statement this morning.
Let your listeners know that the question becomes..."Is that why you ended up in Viet Nam Sen Kerry?
Obviously, young Mr Kerry did not do his schoolwork! Mike Mike Prokop Cleveland, OH
You mean conservative radio listeners are against John Kerry?
What a revelation! Next you'll be telling me they plan to vote Republican Tuesday!
I've lost the little respect I had for chalupa. He is a world class idiot if he believes the BS coming from Kerry.
When Kerry said "do well in college or get stuck in Iraq", he could have very well meant legacy-jerkoff dubya's his dumb self is stuck in Iraq, not the troops.
He could also have meant just what he said.When Kerry said "do well in college or get stuck in Iraq", he could have very well meant legacy-jerkoff dubya's his dumb self is stuck in Iraq, not the troops.
Why do you folks have to spin what he says or
make excuses for the dumbass. He is what he
is. He is a damn socialist who only craves one
thing. His agenda and the socialist agenda.
Same reasons you guys spin the crap that comes out of Dumbya every damn time he speaks. But since he s up everytime its the norm.
Before you and Bush agree on how you feel about Kerry, you need to check with Al-Sadr first.
Theres a new sheriff in town.
Good. Let's vamose' this cluster- .Theres a new sheriff in town.
