According to Kerry's peers, two of his wounds which earned purple hearts were both superficial and self-inflicted. In one case, he apparently got hit with dry rice! The questions surrounding the details of John Kerry's purple hearts reminded me of a M*A*S*H episode. Major Frank Burns, the sniveling idiot who had no respect from his peers or his subordinates, got an egg shell in his eye. He tried to get a purple heart citing "shell fragment in eye"! Since Kerry also has little respect from his "Band of Brothers" and apparently got medals under exaggerated claims, I am now referring to the candidate as Major Frank Burns whenever I get a chance. If anyone out there can get me a photo of Kerry morphed into Burns, I would greatly appreciate it! One that also has pretty-boy Edwards morphed into Major Margaret Houlihan would be icing on the cake! Thanks!!!!!!!
That is usually the way it is. And the popular characters usually turn out to be pompous jerks in real life.
Now, now...you know "the rule"...it's only "unacceptable" if a conservative does it.
Otherwise, it's a "personal life" issue...;)
LOL! Got it!
Pitiful, ain't it?.....LOL!
My neighbor reminded me of this episode today, so I did a search and I found, of course, that a FREEPER has already posted it. M.A.S.H. is out on video, isn't it? How can we find this episode????
If you have the time, you can scan through this site to find the correct episode. From there you can search the public library on-line to see if they have the Tape/DVD of that episode. Good Luck!

Let's get back out on the bay again.
"Calling Graphics Whiz! Need morph of Kerry/Maj.Frank Burns!!!"
I'd say wait until I buy Photoshop, but by the time I do and become a whiz nobody will know who Kewwy was.
Sometime after mid 1989 I returned to Texas after living in South Africa. I have always followed politics and one night sometime after my return I walked through the room and Dixie Carter was talking about the "education Governor of Arkansas." My thought was hell they must be in the bottom five of state concerning education. I went to my almanac and for the first time saw the name Wm Clinton.
Not sure -- I think FX plays MASH reruns all the time. It'll obviously be one of the earlier shows since Frank was there before Winchester. I'll bet they sell collections at Amazon or something.
Dixie Carter is one of the out-of-the-closet Republicans. She had me fooled from watching Designing Women!
Thanks for the link!
