Amen to that. He was also called "one of the best natural pilots I ever flew with" by his primary T-38 Talon instructor.
I heard Rush ask a liberal caller a GREAT question. It was:
"Caller, let me ask you--what medals did George Herbert Walker Bush and Bob Dole earn?"
The liberal caller was in shock, and said he didn't know. Rush pointed out that was because those me never bragged about them like Kerry has. Bob Dole was not only wounded at Anzio beach--he was maimed. G.H.W Bush flew over 60 combat mission--under REAL enemy fire. The media largely ignored their legitimate heroism.
That's right...he also got shot down and spent more time in the water than Kerry did in any of his six swimming pools.....got a DFC....THE HARD WAY!
