I like your no-BS style. I won't question Kerry's decision to ask for a reassignment; never having been in combat I don't feel like I have that right. As far as his voting record and his congressional testimony accusing US soldiers of war crimes when many of them were still being tortured in POW camps, that's where I reserve the right to despise him and try to persuade others to vote against him come November. But again, as you said, "The bottom line [of this article] is that he got three Purple Hearts, the Silver Star and a Bronze Star."

Thanks. Let's be clear for the forum; There is nothing that I find attractive about Kerry as a person or a candidate. His record is replete with left leaning, self-aggrandizing and/or contradictory votes, statements, actions. There is more than enough genuinely despicable history in his resume. His being wounded but not killed three times does not fit that category and it's damned silly to try to hammer it in.
