Reminds me of the joke: Q:What's white and crawls up your leg?
A: Uncle Ben's perverted rice.
Hey, I want full credit for the RICE UP THE BUTT WOUND phrasing! I'm calling John Edwards to copyright it this minute!!! :P
The reason I think Kerry didn't fear any of these things coming out is because he knows all of that stuff could be dismissed with "Well, he's got three Purple Hearts, so that's that."
The thing is, though, Bush never discusses his service, so it's not like they can attack him for this.
In other words, Kerry figured he could deflect any such attacks UNLESS they came from these guys.
