Publisher's summary

In their new book, Unfit for Command, John O'Neill and co-author Jerome Corsi bring together the words of more than 200 Navy veterans who served with Kerry and who feel it their duty to tell why John Kerry is unworthy of the presidency.

In 1971, John O'Neill, the officer who took over John Kerry's swift boat in Vietnam, returned home from Vietnam only to realize that the man he served with, John Kerry, had become a leader of the radical group Vietnam Veterans Against the War and was slandering his fellow veterans as war criminals. O'Neill debated John Kerry on The Dick Cavett Show in 1971, successfully demolishing Kerry's accusations against his fellow troops in Vietnam. Unfit for Command reveals a John Kerry you don't know, the true John Kerry whom his political image makers are trying to hide. But the veterans who served with him know better, and, in Unfit for Command, they tell their story.

Traitor In Chief

Would you listen to Unfit for Command again? Why?

Most assuredly. It will help me to remember what an absolute liar John Kerry was, is and continues to be.

What was the most compelling aspect of this narrative?

The fact that e lied on numerous occasions to the congressional commitee in 1970.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes

Any additional comments?

As a Vietnam Veteran It was and is extremely disturbing to me that this man could lie about fellow veterans as he did in order to further his political aspirations. John Kerry should have been tried and convicted as a traitor.

Don't read if you're voting for Kerry

You'll have to change your vote. Some issues like personality and Kerry's motives are debatable, but most of what O'Neil writes is verifiable and condeming:


Kerry used the swiftboat reunion as a photo-op and didn't stay for the memorial for his fallen comrades

Kerry lied, under oath about the atrocities committed
Over 200 of Kerry's fellow swifties condemn his presidential bid

Kerry met with the North Vietnamese DURING the Vietnam war

Kerry Lied about being in Cambodia, and repeated the same lie in several articles.

The writing style is direct, descriptive and effective. Reading the other reviewers who have given this book no stars, I really wonder if they have actually listened to it.

Phenomenal

I've never in my life seen such a fervor to subvert a book as I have with this one! I couldn't find it in any book store despite its bestseller status and was thrilled when I found it here. How odd that so many books have come out criticizing the president, but one book comes out against this person and the country turns communist! I would recommend this book just to find out what is so damaging that no one wants objective readers to see.

Very interesting...

Interesting that Kerry and liberals want to bash this book as one guy's opinions. Actually, the book states facts that can be verified! Kerry's account of Vietnam cannot be backed up with facts--only what Walter Mitty wants to imagine happened.

It's hard to believe Kerry and one or two others are tellng the truth when it is very different from what 200 people who were there are saying. Also, the 200 people are backed up with facts. Someone is lying and it is obvious that it is not the 200 Swift Boat Vets.

The liberals don't want you to read or listen to this book. Read or listen to it and form your own opinion.

no stars for these guys

This book is more lies. They are looking to cash in on the media. How much is enough about mud slinging. If they should write about something, they should write about how NOT to wage war and critique the flop that Bush is doing right now. At least Kerry went which makes him qualified.

Unfit for Command

An incredible revealing look at a presidential candidate's hidden background of his touted military service. Well written by honorable officers and servicemen who served with Mr. Kerry, trying to set the record straight.

As factual as

It's chalk-full-o-lies from registered lie-o-crats:

Documented Lies of John O'Neill in the press:

O'Neill lied when he said Swift Boat Vets "have no partisan ties"; member in new ad was Bush-Cheney campaign official

O'Neill lied about being a "Republican from Texas"

O'Neill lied about his political involvement

O'Neill denied making thousands of dollars in contributions to GOP; FEC records contradict him

O'Neill lied about ties to Nixon White House

O'Neill lied about how many vets who served "with" Kerry contributed to Unfit for Command

O'Neill lied about Jerome Corsi's role in Unfit for Command

And who is John Corsi:

Corsi on Islam: "a worthless, dangerous Satanic religion"

Corsi on Catholicism: "Boy buggering in both Islam and Catholicism is okay with the Pope as long as it isn't reported by the liberal press"

Corsi on Muslims: "RAGHEADS are Boy-Bumpers as clearly as they are Women-Haters -- it all goes together"

Corsi on "John F*ing Commie Kerry": "After he married TerRAHsa, didn't John Kerry begin practicing Judiasm? He also has paternal grandparents that were Jewish. What religion is John Kerry?"

Now you know where these guys are coming from. They are shameless.

This book reveals a selfish liar, coward, traitor, and enemy of Anerica.

I recommend this book because it reveals the real Kerry who today is exactly where he should not be.
