###Four months in Vietnam and he earned three Purple Hearts, a Bronze Start, and a Silver Star.###
No CMH, though. Damn--after all he done for the war effort, he was jipped. If Kerry would have just stayed in and won the war for us we'd all be better off. He could have, too (or, at least that is what a few select world leaders told him at a In And Out Burger a few days ago.)
Found a very good point in an op ed this morning:
"His (Kerrys) friends say he is just instinctively nuanced in his thinking. That may be closer to the mark. According to Webster's Dictionary, the etymology of nuance is from the middle French (Hmm!) word nuer: to make shades of color; from nue: clouds, akin to the Greek; nythos: dark. That would seem to be Mr. Kerry's problem. He thinks and talks in shades that create clouds and darkness around him."
