Senator Cleland - a former Vietnam veteran who lost an arm and both legs in combat

Is that correct? I had read it was self-inflicted.

It's nice to see what's going out to the world.

News like this will weaken our enemies resolve.

With Kerry as the leader in the race, our enemies are emboldened and the Iraqi people hesitant.

He was in a Combat zone...the wounds where as a result of nonhostile fire,,hence no PH's.

The author of this has several problems... the first and foremost being a lack of familiarity with the story.

What does Binay Kumar know?

Cleland lost his limbs in a non-combat related accident. Regrettable to be sure, but it had nothing to do with combat.

How can you be a "former" Vietnam veteran?

Cleland dropped a grenade in a non combat zone - no purple heart.

He saw a grenade on the ground and thinking it was one of his, he picked it up. He was not in combat but on a base.
But he looks pitiful.
He did not get a purple heart because it was self inflected.

You're kidding.

Since when is a private home a public place?

From the article: ***Max Clelands' grandstanding will also only make it harder for the Kerry campaign to take the public's mind away from the Swift Boat ads............... ***

. He stood on the deck, in front of the world's cameras with a banner in the background proclaiming 'Mission Accomplished'. Whoever thought up the plan might have remarked at his own ingenuity at the time - Jealous cause Max couldn't do this!?

The Left can't let stand a real Commander in Chief, praising U.S. troops and rallying the American people.

No they can't have that, they just can't have that.
