From the article: "The movie ends with an older John Kerry, now a senator, flying over the beautiful countryside of Vietnam. He appears lost in thought. He refers to the war as the formative experience of his life - and concludes that for him, and the nation, it has never really ended.

"It was a moment when this country confronted, and didn't confront, a lot of things," he said. "We haven't finished that confrontation. We haven't learned those lessons yet."

The last quote by John Kerry is the scariest insight into his psyche - He hasn't finished his confrontation or learned the lessons of his treachery.

the footage was not footage that actually happened when Kerry was there. There are more vets who dispute Kerry's version then there are vets who back him up. The real issue is this: What did he do when he got home? He put our troops in danger, he backed the communist plan to end the war, which if followed, would have left our POWs in Vietnam and we would have had to negotiate for their release. This up river crap is just another kerry whitewash. Watch Stolen Honor first and then ask yourselve if all 280 of those vets are lying and why would they? Besides, what they have to say is documented. As to Kerrys time in Vietnam, he didn't have a wound that caused him to miss time, both of his medals are disputed and it is a fact the he wrote the after action report that earned him his bronze star. He didn't spend Christmas in Cambodia and he lied about his purple hearts. He admits that he self inflicted( not intentionally) at least one of his so called wounds and he refuses to release all his records. Are we over reacting? No, but the left would like to put doubt in your mind.
