Kerry lied, geese died

"Wrong for geese.  Wrong for America," taglines "Swift Geese Veterans for Truth," a parody by Tim McNabb of five hundred words of John Kerry's 1971 Senate testimony:

. . . had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan.

Winter Soldier Investigation Senate testimony April 1971

. . . had personally winged, cut off heads, used devices to mimic the sounds of brenta canadensis, blown up bodies, randomly shot at geese making  no distinction between male and female, plucked feathers in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan.

How do you ask a goose to be the last goose to die for a mistake?  We asked the very question here last week.  The Senator has been strangely silent on the matter, responding to a reporter's question as to why someone else was carrying the bird he said he shot with a cryptic -- if nuanced --  "I'm too lazy . . . I'm still giddy over the Red Sox. It was hard to focus.''

Thanks for the write up. I like your tagline ("Kerry Lied, Geese Died") better.

There is a line in the "Winter Soldier" testimony that mentions body counts.

"We watched the U.S. falsification of body counts, in fact the glorification of body counts. "

This before I heard that Kerry claimed everybody (4 people) got a goose, but there are only 3 geese.

You just can't parody these people fast enough.

I congratulate you on the most hilarious scenario I've seen in a long, long time.

Done with excellent taste and attention to details, you captured exactly what Kerry was like in role when he was a Winter Soldier.

I appreciate being able to do my part by watching and letting others who see him a fool, watch this too. Endless thanks to you for creating it.
