This bozo had better be damned sure those medals are on the up and up. His entire claim to the presidency is now tied to it.

Being from Mass myself I have heard rumors about Kerry and his stint in Nam that are not exactely flattering. They are third hand rumors- but nonetheless- lets wait and see. And not to disparage Nam Vets with medals- but my Pop says they were handing out medals and Purple Hearts in Nam like candy.

That one sentence has more truth in it than I've seen, anywhere, in a long time.

Thank you for pointing this out, onyx. And, thank you, Texasforever, for being just plain profound. ;o)

but he's also got a 20-year record of voting in the Senate that he's going to have to defend."

BINGO .. he'll never be able to defend it .. and that "protest" vote against President Bush .. he can call it anything he wants .. the bottom line is .. he voted against giving money to support the troops.

Click for the truth about Kerry's voting record

Do not be surprised if Kerry's medals are not on the "up and up." As anyone who served in combat in Viet Nam will attest, to receive 3 Purple Hearts, a Bronze Star and a Silver Star in 4 months is a feat that would be difficult to attain even for Audie Murphy. LOL Sounds more like the officers were writing each other up commendations at the Officer's Club. ROFLMAO But I have more problems with the scandalous statements by Kerry to the Senate committee in 1971 regarding "mass atrocities." As a Marine who had access to Marine Corps intelligence in 1969 and 1970, I can state unequivocally that there were no "mass atrocities" by Americans in Viet Nam. And as I stated on the Laura Ingraham radio show last Tuesday, Kerry is a "bald faced liar." PERIOD! Semper Fi, Kelly
