Did I say anything about supporting Kerry because of his military record? I just wanted to point out that unlike some Democrat politicians of our acquaintance, John Kerry did not sit his tour out in a Saigon hotel. His military service and his courage in battle have nothing to do with his political beliefs.

It also should be noted that Kerry stated that in an anti-war demonstration in 1970, I beleive, that he threw his medals over the White House fence in protest.

Those medals were somebody elses. His medals are now hanging in his Senate office.

Kerry is not as pure as the wind driven snow, either.

Sorry to put words in your mouth. I started out wanting to respond to the idea that Kerry's service makes him immune to the charge that he is a spoiled rich guy then I went off on a tangent & started speaking to points you did not make.

Guess I was guilty of a little non-sequitur myself.
