So John Kerry served in Viet Nam, big deal. Isn't it funny how the pendulum swings. Its taken thirty years but now its a badge of honor to have served in Viet Nam. Does serving in a war/conflict make someone honorable. Hitler served in the German army in WW1, so I guess he was qualified to lead the German people. He11, that Libyan dictator and Castro both still wear their uniforms, does that mean they're qualified to be leaders of their countries? I have to question the character of anyone who would vote for a fellow (soldier, sailor, airman, or Marine) based on the fact that person was a buddy in Nam. Kind of makes you wonder what kind of character such an individual has. We once had a Civil War in this country where brothers raised arms up against their own brothers based on political issues that were grounded in principle and backed up with individual character and a musket. I'm not advocating civil war, but I gotta wonder where those kinds of individuals are today?

Kerry's service in Viet Nam means nothing, he abandoned us veterans long ago. Jim Rassmussen should be ashamed. Kerry even voted against a pay raise for the troops in 1993, while voting to increase their income taxes. He tried to disband the CIA, end the B2 bomber etc.. Review the man's record. Until he decided to run for President we veterans matter little to him. Now he hides behind our skirts to prevent people from attacking his voting records, and Jim Rassmussen enables him.
