It never bothered me that Kerry shot a fleeing VC, no mater what the shootee's age was or that it may have been in the back; that's war. The real problem was that he got so charged up with adrenalin that he abandoned the boat and crew that he was the "officer in charge" of to go on a private glory seeking mission. As OIC his job was to remain in command of the boat and direct other people to physically run down and kill the VC, including that one.

I, too, got hooked on internet blogging due to the great job that the "Swifties" did in exposing the real John Kerry that I am old enough to remember from the Vietnam era. For that we owe them a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid. Even though President Bush has made mistakes, he has never wavered from his commitment to the GWOT, even in the face of the polls and the negativity of the drive-by MSM.

What I was wondering, if, God forbid, John McCain were to receive the Republican nomination for POTUS and John Kerry were to be renominated (another unlikely scenario), John McCain would be as dismissive of the Swift Vets as he was during the 2004 campaign. He had to know that they were telling the truth, yet he dissed them at every opportunity.
