It just occurred to me Effin may not have chucked those medals over the fence if he would have earned them a little more honestly.

Do you think LtJG John Kerry cared one whit about the guys he left behind when he bailed after only four months of a twelve month tour? It would be interesting to see just how many of those guys he stayed in contact with while he was back home and they were still motoring through the Mekong.

Who were the senators Kerry was planning to hit? And why does this go uninvestigated. Were are the press minions on this case? Oh I forgot the press is going after the real story. SwiftBoat Vets are not telling the truth and it's all Bush's fault.

To Hanoi John, medal's are like credit cards. How he got them is of no concern. How he uses them, is everything.

Those medals got him out of Vietnam early. They got him his VVAW notoriety. They got him a seat in the Senate.

And they are going to derail his current ambition.

There have been occasional, brief news-media references to, but no details of, Kerry's controversial testimony to a U.S. Senate committee.

There is nothing "controversial" about corrupting the troops in time of war. Same tactics the bolshevics used during WW1, whose main slogan was "Defeat of our own government". They sent propagandists to the frontlines to agitate among the troops aimed at bringing down the morale. Their activities were not considered "controversial", when caught they were shot on site. However, they achieved their goal. Everybody knows what came next.

Give the man a cigar!

My friends with purple hearts from Vietnam all have scars that give you and ache in the pit of your stomach when you see them.. If JFK had survived the type of wounds they did he would have valued them much more... My big problem with all of this is how the Navy and the Swift Boat Chain of command let him get these things in the first place. Based on what we have seen from him in the last 30+ years I hope that they were rubber stamping his efforts to get them (the PH's) with the knowledge that they could get rid of him before he got someone killed...
