Four months in Nam but he spent longer than that back in the US fighting the war FOR North Vietnam taking the assault to the United States itself.

Heck, his organization almost assassinated elected leaders.

Remember the convention .. it was all about Vietnam

(IMO) it was the plan all along .. they just didn't expect smart people out there to call Dan Rather and CBS on their forged documents ..

which in my quess is why they didn't try to push this through a 527 .. no one would believe Moveon.org

Yeah thats true it must be about his long war against America he has waged since he came back with his "war wounds" and video tapes showing him tromping thru the jungle.
