Thank you General Brady for your devotion and patriotism. I don't believe any sane individual enters war in the attempt to decorate their "fruit salad". No one knows whether they are hero material until confronted with the decision to risk all to save others. That instantaneous decision is what seperates the heroes from mortal soldiers and its not anything we can prepare for. As an officer, you are entitled the salute but as a recipient of the CMH, a salute alone is not enough to show our gratitude for men of your calibre. My utmost respect has always gone to the Vietnam vets and the personal hardships/tragedies that they have had to endure due to the liberal mindset. May the senator from Massachusetts get his just desserts for the credibility hole that he himself has dug!
Thank you very much Maj General Brady for your service and honesty.

I think that there is a killer story here.
Kerry was awarded 3 purple hearts in 4 months, not to mention his other two medals.
1. How many other Vietnam vets/officers were awarded 3 purple hearts?
2. What was the shortest time period during which 3 purple hearts were earned?
3. How many of these vets/officers got out of their tour of duty early?
4. Was any other soldier serving on swift boats awarded 3 purple hearts?
Compare Kerry's outcomes with answers to questions 1-4.
Recipe for TOAST.
It was a great man , a bold, persistant, persevering in the face of numerous long and diffcult obstacles and suffering, a mighty and heroic man, a humble man, who laid the great stone and carved into it the words of that ban. George Washington, fellow citizen.

You have it exactly right. The most telling statement from Kerry applies equally to VietNam and Iraq: "I was for the war before I was against it." He wants to play both sides of the street at all times -- a man of zero principles.
Refute that, Kerry, you pathetic Clymer.
Just out of curiosity, is there any record of ANYBODY else pulling this stunt?
No it isn't.
I'm sure there are people who would find it debatable...there are people who believe Michael Moore tells the truth.
Prez Bush senior earned the DFC but I remember during the '92 campaigh he was referred to as a coward by the Dimbulbs. They have no shame.
BTTT for later
John Skerry was very effectively swift-boated by John O’Neil and Jerry Corsi!!!
