My point was that if done properly it would be his service comrades who would take that issue public; not anyone else. Anything short of that simply invites a deluge of criticism in investigation.

Many here, 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub, Aloha Ronnie, RVNAirplaneDriver, and many others, *are* his service comrades. Many others have worn the uniform, and hate to see it used to collect political brownie points from Code Pink and the Dancing Dims.

Then give the son of a bitch over. Or do not. The games are old.

By 'service comrades' I mean those who served in his unit during Vietnam. If these gentlemen are indeed from his unit then 'have at it'. However, as I just replied to another response, I believe it better to pursue the corruption issue during his congressional career first, then hit him with the service fraud issue while he's under indictment.

First, this would not only be a strike at him but at Nancy Pelosi and her 'culture of corruption' crap she keeps sputtering about. She's become so cuddly with him over his anti-Iraq issue, this would tarnish her also.

Then, while that is in full swing, should these people come public with their information about his service record, it would be a final nail in his political career (as well as to his reputation). By public I mean their handling it in the same fashion as the Swift Boat Vets did with John Kerry. Public announcements, newspaper articles, appearances, etc. That's how to get the news out to the majority of Americans (who still get their news from the MSM). They're the ones we have to inform; not those of us who already visit and contribute to conservative 'ether-land'.

BTW, I too have worn the uniform although I never served in Vietnam. I too despise anyone who collects political brownie points from Code Pink and the Dancing Dims - or even from their time in service. That's nothing to barter on in my estimation. It's something to be proud of; not use to solidify one's power. That's why I have far greater respect for President Bush than for John McCain.

'Nuff said!
