I agree with Ritter. But I wouldn't form any opinions based on his. It's just one piece of slime calling another piece of slime a piece of slime.

Thank you for your service. You might want to repost your comments on the new thread that has started regarding his medals.

Why Newsday? Why today? Why Ritter? Somebody is throwing us a bone.

You will see a lot of attacks on Kerry now by the leftist press. It doesn't count because of the limited attention span of the public.

When it gets critical a couple of months before the election the press will fall silent on Kerry's shortcomings. When pressed about the non- coverage of Kerry's downside, the press will respond "we talked about that before that's old news now."

The big difference today is that talk radio , Fox news, the Internet and some right leaning newspapers will talk about it in the late summer and early fall when it counts. - Tom

Over all I tend to agree. Ritter is a special case because of his history. Newsday using Ritter to go after Kerry, like Ritter has credibility, is odd.

So to whom would a piece like this serve? Somebody at Newsday owe someone else a favor? Maybe another dim?

Will anyone follow-up in the media asking Kerry to respond to Ritter? Likely not, so maybe someone is sending a signal to JFKerry to get his attention.

Ritter doesn't think Kerry went far enough soon enough selling out his country. Also, Kerry likes his women older and richer than Ritter does.

If I'm not mistaken, Scotty's thrown in with Dennis Kook-cinich

Maybe Scotty thinks Grandfather Twilight's favorite candidate looks like Peter Pan or something.

Something tells me the Loony Left isn't about to go quietly into the night and fall in meekly behind Jean Luc Cheri, and Ritter may be firing some of the opening salvos.

It is also worth noting that a purple heart is not an award for valor.

For a long time, the marines gave "wound stripes" instead, which were worn on the opposite sleeve from hash marks for service.

Of course, I don't denigrate the purple heart. Anybody with a legitimate purple heart showed up and went in harm's way, and that's all that's required. That is honorable, and to be respected.
