"A lot of guys, 60, 80 percent stay stoned 24 hours a day just to get through the Vietnam"... "a lot of guys?" well that could be ten, twenty or eight...I mean Kerry was in country all of four months? hello?...Hundreds of thousands of guys were in Viet Nam at one time. I can't speak for the other services but I can speak for the grunts in the Marine Corps. And we all know that drugs were everywhere in Viet Nam but in the grunt units I can say that unequivocally we did not tolerate drugs in the bush. Our lives depended on each other and we could not and would not allow someone on drugs with the unit. They would be on the next chopper out. Semper Fi, Kelly

I bet you Marines never had to film reenactments of your gun fights either.

There something about this whole thing to be thinking so far in advance to film reenactments and still continue to replay them.

Just what experience did Kerry base this on? Less than 4 months with the Swift boats? I think we should investigate as to why the crews he worked with were such drug-crazed village-burning rapists and murderers.
