Has anyone run this over to "the underground" to gauge their reactions yet?

I e-mailed this to a friend. He EARNED his Purple Hearts (2). And he has the wheelchair to prove it.

How about an all-encompassing moniker: Kerrytastrophe.
To: rwfok
Letson says he remembers his brief encounter with Kerry 35 years ago because:
"some of his crewmen related that Lt. Kerry had told them that he would be the next JFK from Massachusetts." That's spelled jfk.
jfk - the Bandaid Hero.

If this is true, the first Purple Heart was a fraud because the owie was not caused by enemy fire. Kerry is his own worst enemy

I just do not understand how anybody, especially military, can support this guy. This "Anybody But Bush" stuff is going to hopefully continue a downward spiral of which the 'rats will never recover. ofv

"..If this is true, the first Purple Heart was a fraud because the owie was not caused by enemy fire. The owie was a small splinter?"
Can you even begin to imagine how the alphebet media would be all over this if the story was about BUSH fradulently obtaining a PURPLE HEART? The Outrage wouldn't stop for years!!!
To: gitmo
Darn. You beat me to it. He beat you by eight minutes!! That's an eon on this board. :)

Can you imagine him walking around, trying to keep the sliver from falling out on its own, before he could see the doctor?

Are these the SAME crew members that are sticking by Kerry's story??? Maybe they are really "The Band-Aid Brothers"....not "The Band of Brothers"....which is it?

"they did not receive any fire from shore, but that Kerry had fired a mortar round at close range to some rocks on shore."
This appears to mean that Kerry was just shooting up stuff along the shoreline, with a mortar no less, probably wanting to see what sort of damage he could do, as the boat patrolled along.
If he hadn't been the superior officer, his superior would have told him to stow it, and quit wasting ammo!

"Some of his crew confided that they did not receive any fire from shore, but that Kerry had fired a mortar round at close range to some rocks on shore."
Hey, we haven't had a "Hold Muh Beer" alert in a while. I think this qualifies.
Maybe a "Hold Muh Gin & Tonic"?
