However, as a long-prepared text, I couldn't beleive how bad it was, and I COULD NOT believe that he completely ommitted any reference to his anti-war activities.

He did mention it, it sort of code language to leftists when he said that "our generation set out to change the world blahblah." But that was the closest he came.

It was a terrible speech. And the salute thing made millions think that he has serious PTSD problems. It was a picture-perfect portrayal of the stereotype created by the lunatic left that all Vietnam veterans are obsessed with the war and are always trying to refight it.

The funny thing is and the irony lost on the Democrats, is they can't seem to get over Vietnam. Its the issue that tore their party apart in 1968 and since then they've never quite managed to put it back together in a way that felt right.

Oh yes, I did catch that part. Complete dissembling that was, you are right, pure code.
