Now, the Rest of the Kerry Promoter's Story (Not Appearing in the Leftrickle Media)

John F. Kerry almost became president running on the basis of his alleged heroism in Vietnam. Thanks to the efforts of a group of truth-tellers, the Swiftboat Veterans for Truth, the serious holes in the fantasy narrative propounded by the Kerry campaign came to the attention of a good many Americans  and Kerry was not elected president of the United States. One of Kerry's enablers in propounding his imaginary heroism was a man named Wade Sanders, who now has been exposed for what he is.

Kerry was introduced at the 2004 Democratic National Convention by Sanders, a retired Navy captain and former deputy assistant secretary of the Navy who served as a Swift Boat officer in Vietnam. Like Kerry, Sanders was the recipient of a Silver Star for gallantry in action. During the 2004 campaign, Sanders functioned as Kerry's lead attack dog against the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, repeatedly denouncing the veterans as liars and comparing them to Nazi propagandists.

Wade Sanders now is in a federal prison, serving a 37-month sentence for possessing child pornography. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus has revoked Sanders' Silver Star in a highly unusual decision apparently unrelated to Sanders' felony conviction. A Navy spokesman cited "subsequently determined facts and evidence surrounding both the incident for which the award was made and the processing of the award itself." John Kerry may be hoping this doesn't become a trend.

As one might imagine, the media has ignored this story. Even the Navy Times initially declined to post its own article online (update: Now it has done so and it is posted here.)


Readers with masochistic tendencies and strong stomachs who want to read the disgusting details of Sanders' criminal conduct can do so by accessing this memorandum, which the government submitted in connection with his sentencing.
