Kerry's thoughts about Iraq are like his own life: cut and run. He got out of Viet Nam by joining the Navy because he thought such a branch of service would keep him out of Viet Nam. He even became an officer because that would allow him to serve in first class.
When he was assigned to the Deck Division, in charge of the Boatswain's Mates, that was a "no go" tour of duty. Time for Swift Boat duty. Lots of pot smoking on those Swift Boats. You can wear your hair hippy fashion too!
Then, when he got married to his first wife, Julia Thorne,worth about $300 million, that was "Cut and Run."

The name of his boat sums him up perfectly:
