Used to read D-bury. Found it tedious and boring. Yes, I got the slants he was selling - he just is not good at his trade, IMO.

This just doesnt make sense. An award to Trudeau from Veterans? Are they some of John Kerry's veterans?

"President's Award for Excellence in the Arts from the Vietnam Veterans of America"

I don't understand this award. What President? President of what? No disrespect to women who served in the military (my own daughter has), but when you have a gal who served in the Navy 1968-1970 praising Trudeau, makes me want to know if the true grunts of the war supported that award to him.

I have a Doonesbury book (Given by a friend when he was going to throw it away). I used it as reading material when I was "having a crisis". I figured I could use it as wiping material :)

Doonesbury was very politically incorrect. His storyline was to focus on the behind the scenes.

" They also received a signed copy of an April 2006 "Doonesbury" strip featuring B.D. trying to escape his haunting memories of serving in Iraq in the 1990s."

With apologies to all Gulf War vets but what kinda of nightmares can a "vet" have from a war that lasted only "100" hours?

Not quite the Sands of Iwo Jima, the icy Hell of the Chosin reservoir in Korea or a year long tour of duty in the black jungles of Vietnam.

Now if B.D. was in the current war that would be a different matter.
Artistic license I guess

I believe that the VVA is a group of phoney 'Vietnam Vets' that are actually anti-war activists..

I don't have time to Google it right now but I think it was the same as the VV for Peace that Kerry was involved with.
