Stolen Honor: Wounds That Never Heal

Stolen Honor is a moving documentary about the effects on the war in Southeast Asia by the anti-war movement in the USA of which John Jerry was not just a member - He was one of their leaders. I know all of the POWs in this video. In fact, seven of the 17 POWs listed as participants in the video were cell mates of mine.

As for those commenters who say it's time to get over Vietnam and send the Swiftees back to Vietnam (Serenitynow76)Kerry made Vietnam a core ingredient of his candidacy. Some may try to call "Stolen Honor" and "Unfit for Command" lies but 17 POWs and 200 plus Swiftees are all saying the same or similar things: That John Kerry is not the man for POTUS.

This video is right on the mark. Watch it and then tell us where they did not tell the truth. Otherwise, face the facts.

While Michael Moore's somewhat of a documentary (911) focused on President George Bush, Stolen Honor jumps around the issue of John Kerry. On the surface, the documentary appears to be a movie about John Kerry. It is not. It is more of a documentary of Vietnam and the POW's. John Kerry is more of a side story that the focus on hand. Stolen Honor is a better Vietnam documentary than a John Kerry movie. Still, it does what it is meant to do. The movie is an anti-Kerry machine. It's goal is to paint a picture of Kerry that will make sure he will not get your vote for President. Like Moore's 911, Stolen Honor is not holding back any punches to get their opinion across to the public. Whether you are a democrat or republican, this is a good movie about the POW's in Vietnam....nothing more.

I believe in free speech and equal time.

The folks who made this documentary have just as much right to express their views as Michael Moore in his documentary, or as CBS News in its biased reports based on false documents.

There are many American Vietnam era veterans and POWs who truly believe they were hurt by the positions taken by a young John F. Kerry upon his return from his extremely short four month tour of duty in Vietnam.

These veterans have a right to exercise their free speech rights, and Sinclair Broadcasting Group has as much right as CBS news to report on this newsworthy event.

A very good film for supporters of John Kerry to see. But, only if they are going to put the same faith in what they see on the screen as they did in Michael Moore's piece of detritus. This is not a Democrat vs Republican issue. John Kerry has been shown to have been a afraid while in Viet Nam (not abnormal), but someone who acted on that fear by getting 3 quick Purple Hearts, (two for self inflicted wounds) to get himself out of there, that is cowardice. He was leaving so someone else had to take his risks for him. His wounds were band aid boo boo's. He should be ashamed of himself for taking medals that true heroes earned with real wounds. I suppose people assume this is a conspiracy. Well there are at least 10 highly decorated officers in this film who unflinchingly served above and beyond the call of duty. And in fact suffered more because of John Kerry. I dare doubters to watch these men and tell me a Congressional Medal of Honor winner is lying about Mr Kerry. And then I want the doubters to ask themselves do they actually think 240 men who served with him could all conspire against Kerry and be lying and not have anyone come forward and admit it. I think not. Watch this film to see again some brave men from the war even I played a much smaller role in. This film should have been seen nationally and discussed in the general media. If things go badly at the polls on Nov 2nd, we will have a lying, treasonous, conspirator as president. And important documentary. And thank you to the POW's who appeared for their sacrifice, and to those who didn't have the chance to appear. I'm humbled by them, I only gave two years of life.

I ordered this DVD from the internet site and watched it with friends at the VFW two days ago. I did not relate this to the current political climate but to the vitriol feelings that many if not most Vietnam Veterans feel towards John Kerry. These pows/ veterans in the film are entitled to what ever emotions and/or truths they hold dear. Their voices will definitely touch your souls and your conscience.

How can one dispute testimony by the Winter Soldiers before Congress. They're documented facts in both ink and celluloid. If you never see the video at least read the transcripts. So IMDb users who dispute what Red, White and Blue Production are distributing have to be "a special kind of stupid." We shouldn't rewrite history for the sake of an opportunist with deep pockets or because we don't like the messenger.

Only a few individuals will ever see this one sided documentary but I have to admit its the best 20 dollars I've ever spent.
