I salute you, sir . . . or ma'am. Veterans like you are the PRIMARY reason we're the greatest country the world has ever known.

I would venture to say that he's talking about the effete, panty-waist Thomas Oliphant.
The classiest thing the Am Legion vets could do today is sit in COMPLETE SILENCE. Let him sweat like the pig he is up on that stage. He was plenty glib in front of the cameras during his testimony in '71 which accused them of being war criminals. They ought to show him their backs today for all the grief that caused when they got home.
I wish my employer would pay me for never showing up at work.
Fortunately or Unfortunately Conservatives tend to be to polite. The American Legion should treat Kerry like David Duke at an NAACP convention. Years ago Ted Kennedy spoke at Jerry Fallwell's Liberty University he was treated very well. It was a friends can disagree and not be disagreeable kind of event. Falwell was the supposed to speak at Harvard in return as a guest of Ted Kennedy. I forget the exact outcome but either he tried to speak but the heckling, the yelled profanities, the threats and loud disruptions forced him to cut it short or Harvard plain out canceled his speech.
Their are times I wish Republicans were not so polite.
Republican politeness has become moral relativism. Time to take the gloves off. There is nothing impolite or unBiblical about fighting evil.
"Wonder who Carr's referring to."
I think the bow-tied one is Tom Oliphant of the Boston Globe, a total cheerleader for the D's.

Sorry for the double post. My Enter key got stuck.
I think he's referring to Thomas Oliphant, who writes for the competition (The Boston Globe) and has been carrying Kerry's water on the Swift Boat allegations.
Ohhhh, right. Him.
If anyone knows what time Kerry is appearing before the American Legion today please ping me. Thanks
Yes, and I'm sort of ticked at the Swift Vets for even suggesting that they would let the whole thing drop if Kerry apologized.
I'm sorry but he could still be commander in Chief if he apologizes -- and I do not want that as a miliary parent.
Swift Vets - get your act together or I'll stop sending checks.
I notice that he is hiding behind John Glenn.
