My daughter is back from Iraq on leave. Apparantly Kerry's purple hearts are a running joke among troops over there. Whenever someone stubs a toe or gets the slightest scratch, they say "can I get a purple heart for this? Kerry got one..."

Couple things -- first, thank you, and your daughter for her service. That's no hollow thanks, it is sincere as can be. Second, LMAO at the "Kerry purple heart" sentiment.
