All pro-military Americans have just cause for asking these questions. He hasn't exactly backed away from his claims that we couldn't fight communism, that we were the ones continually guilty of atrocities, and that our missions were unjust. Even if President Bush feels uncomfortable with our outcry, Kerry should remember that he's asking to be our president as well as his supporters. If he is truly a unifying candidate, why can't he explain his mistakes in the VVAW with a true, heartfelt apology? I'm not buying any notions that he has returned to the fold of patriotism. He's still a patriot for the country of Kerry, himself. He wants to become president of KerryLand.
