Figures. Kerry's an aristocrat, through and through. He's not fooling anybody, and it will become more evident as he pursues the nomination.

An East Coast brahmin will never be elected president.

Does anybody have the details of the action for which Kerry won his silver star? There's a longstanding tradtion that when the wealthy and powerful actually get anywhere near combat, they wind up with medals much more highly ranked than their deeds deserve. LBJ got a silver star for being a passenger on a transport plane. JFK was decorated, rather than being courtmartialed for losing his ship due to stupidity.

If Kerry did something that genuinely merits a silver star, I'll apologize. But everything else about him indicates that he's a tin-plated phony.

Especially when people find out he's LEFT of Ted Kennedy!

Good statements, sinkspur. Damn right, Master Kerry is an aristocrat through and through. He's also a pro-abortion, divorced Catholic, now married to the zillionaire Heinz widow. They are a couple who cannot possibly relate to Miss, Mister or Missus John or Jane Q. Citizen.

Actually one half East Coast Brahmin. Think Forbes family on that one. His other half is Jewish though in my 25 years in the People's Republic of Massachussets I always thought he was Irish.

Here's hoping the rest of the country is sick and tired of effete easterners like Kerry telling them how to suck eggs.
