Just remembered another incident. One of the first responses, or retorts, sonsofliberty2000 and I received was a guy complaining that we weren't objecting to the Catholic Church and its recent problems (apparently, with regard to pedophilia). We just loooked at one another, puzzled. What in the world has that to do with protesting John Kerry's various failings?

Another point:

I was asked by a Bush campaign person not to display my small sign which said, "Kerry dishonors veterans" with a drawing of a band-aid on which was superimposed a Purple Heart. The other side said, "We're not 'Fonda' Hanoi John."

Apparently, she didn't want the Bush campaign to be perceived as being behind attacks on Kerry's questionable Vietnam record (of course, my signs were created by me, and no one else), but I find that a bit puzzling, considering Karen Hughes has questioned Kerry's claims regarding atrocities committed by U.S. soldiers in Vietnam.
