I give infinite respect to your honorable Vietnam service. Yours is an eloquent testimony. Your post should be part of a thread "What Freeper veterans (Vietnam and otherwise) think about John Kerry's claims to heroism"
Let's not get 'Kerryied' away. I'm just an American that keeps this country running. I am not now, not have I ever been a 'hero'. I'm just a vet that won't let a liar, and a traitor stain the names of the brave men that died for the freedoms we all still enjoy. Those brave men saved my life, I just did my job. My favorite line about 'hero's' comes from a movie.."A hero is some kind of weird sandwich". That's about it. The stories are real, Kerry is the fake. The lives that lived the war are the story, not a cheap politician trying to enhance his influenced. The lives that were given are so much more important than the cheap crud that wants power and influence off of the graves of those brave men. The man lied about the war, he lied and brought dishonor on the brothers that saved his sorry ass. The elitist, the very french looking John F'in Kerry, now wants to the the Commander in Chief, not while I still draw breath!
Mr. Kerry is a piece of crud, and I will work my old, combat vet, butt off to defeat this lowlife.
