Okay, thanks .I've have not availed myself of anything from VA since getting Educational Benefits in 1975. So, have not kept up . Bottom line, the Dems don't give a damn about Vetstil election time, and any attempt at reform is greeted with rumors and howls.Kerry has been and will be a disaster.

I can certainly understand that Kerry would be interested in the drug addiction part
So can I.Were you at the Dem convention in 72? Or the Rep in 72?

"I want to meet all these vets who are lining up to vote for Ketchup boy."
Last night, one of the networks showed the results of some polling in SC - one question was related to support by veterans. It showed Edwards with a much higher percentage than Kerry. If that is true, Kerry's vet support is weak.

No I was busy getting 500lb bombs out of pig pens in leper colonies in RVN. However I did have some experince prior to that with Vietnam Veterans Against the War when we were doing Secret Service support. We would always walk over to them and ask them if they were the Gay Liberation Front or something. That would really stir them up.

Kerry was more interested in getting the FAMILY contract in place in Vietnam. Kerry's cousin, C. Stewart Forbes, was too busy whispering dollar signs in JF Kerry's ear...
Kerry is a slut...and worse of all on the back of honest vets.

John Kerry and Senator John McCain chaired the country's most thorough investigation into the fate of POW/MIAs in Southeast Asia.
I thought the effort was co-chaired by Kerry and Senator Bob Smith (R-NH?)

Well, we encountered those fine upstanding heroes at the conventions doing SS work and ,well, thinking about it, I think a pig sty might have been cleaner. One of them was pointing to his ribbons, one was the Asiatic-Pacific medal(that one he got for murdering women and kids),which has not been issued since 1945, and another was a Korean War campaign medal. The other was a Luftwaffe bomber crewman proficiency ribbon..I almost collapsed laughing at him.

"Sen. John Kerry, a highly decorated Vietnam hero who volunteered to go to Vietnam, was the first to step up and speak for veterans this summer at the San Antonio VFW convention on Aug. 25."
Yeah, in a blatant attempt to try to erase his VVAW history...unfortunately for him, it helps draw attention to it!

I'd rather you didn't, but what the hell; maybe there's one I haven't heard yet.

If I do I will try and keep them simple so your fellow Jarheads can understand the punch lines.

Yeah the whole accusing fellow soldiers of atrocities is going to go over real well. A few Generals expressed reservations about the Iraq war and Democrats somehow came to the conclusion that veterans were a bunch of peacenik Democrats. It goes to show you how few veterans most Democrats even know.
