I see Kerry's service was the same as a lot of other soldiers'. He did his duty and tried to get out as quickly as possible. I can't fault him for that. But he's the one that touts his tour of duty as such a qualification for becoming president. I just don't see him as fit to be commander-in-chief. His after-war activities prove that to me. While I think that the details of his in-war activities might suffer under close scrutiny, I don't think we should go there. It's too long after the deed; just accept the fact that he did his military duty as did so many others (including Pres. Bush).
