On Haniity, paraphrasing, one of the Swift Boat vet's said words to effect of "We've been under fire before, and faced real bullets. We'd be pretty poor if we got scared away by mere words..."
Makes them better, more admirable men than some of the so-called "conservatives" arguing so desperately in this very thread for our complete and unconditional surrender, doesn't it?
Our veterans, once again (as always) are boldly leading the way, taking all the risk of danger onto themselves. Anyone here who can't find it within themselves -- someway, somehow -- to support them in that courageous effort is doing just what Kerry did, ultimately: turning and running away.
