Forgive me for saying so, but this seems like ancient history. I'd rather rally support for President Bush based on what the president will do in the future, and based on the scary things that Kerry has advocated during his life as a politician. Whatever happened in the 1960's (good and bad) should probably be burried, IMHO.

You're right!! It is ancient history. However, it is John Kerry who brought up the Vietnam thing, keeps flogging his Vietname service and his fake Purple Hearts and Silver Star, and who keeps questioning the President's service during the Vietnam War period. If John Kerry wants us to shut up about his crappy record in Vietnam and thereafter, then he needs to shut up about it.

Well if freepers like discussing this topic then don't let me or anyone stop you. FR is all about discussing topics we like.

I just think it's not likely to sway any undecided voters to Bush.

I'd rather give Kerry credit for battlefield heroism and be done with it. Let him make references to Vietnam if he wants -- he's just making himself into a running joke. No one likes a hero who keeps talking about what a hero he is, so I hope he keeps it up for all I care.

It's what he's done after Vietnam that's scary. I shudder to think what would happen if he's elected -- we'll have to ask the UN to stop terrorism. That should terrify every American.

Just my $0.02.
