He threw those honors over the White House fence and joined with fake warriors to smear our nation and promote the enemy's cause. That was after his service in Vietnam, and it is legitimate to go after him on that.
But this goofball is questioning his medals. Who the hell cares about medals?
Kerry went to Vietnam, a dirty, stinking war that many of us lucked out of.
He can have all the medals he wants.
I'm more concerned about his waffling on the Iraqi war, and his duplicitous attempt to have it both ways six months ago.
Give him his due in Vietnam.

Give him his due in Vietnam.I agree completely. I had lottery number 283 in 1971. I lucked out.

In NH yesterday, Kerry blamed Nixon for the VN War when it really was JFK and LBJ who really got it going and expanded it. They also had no real strategy for the war and their interference in micromanaging the tactical actions made victory impossible. Funnier yet, it was Nixon who ended the VN war. RATS constantly re-write history.
As for JFK and his medal, it is incomprehensible that he deserved one for having his PT boat run over by a Japanese destroyer. His father made sure he got the medal for the political benefits which followed later.

What caused it to be a dirty, stinking war ?
