I'm on page 130 of Unfit for Command. Kerry actually called Hoffman and offered to change the book IF Hoffman didn't proceed with the SwiftVets. I know there is some mention of it today, but this book had me riveted most of the night. I was skeptical at first, but this is the worst of all political opportunists! To me, he wanted to be President someday, and this was his ticket. Even though he was against the war. Then, when he saw the war was unpopular at home, he went to VVAW. Then, he ran for Congress. Then, he met with the NV in Paris. Much later, he meets with Ortega, now he says he's met with other "leaders" who want him to be President. John Kerry to the rescue!!! He completely "gamed" the Purple Hearts. Then, it turns out that after he received PH #3, they asked him to leave. His own journals and Tour of Duty paint him as this reluctant warrior, but the Vets say he was an incompetent warrior. Some of those videos with him wearing the helmet and fatigues with the M-16, STAGED! They didn't wear this stuff on patrol boats. He was commander, and had to be inside the boat. This man is the most flawed individual to run for President since Slick Willie!
The swifties, on the other hand, claim he was a coward to his superiors and never spoke up, but that he was very anti-war with his peers. Either way, this is not my idea of a combat hero.
He's an idiot and a disloyal idiot at that.
