Col. Hackworth has been a disappointment to say the least. Here we have fellow vets that have a different side of a story, and he just does not pay any attention to it. Kerry is a slug, and most Vets understand that. I do not understand how a man can make the rank of Col., and be so close minded to the facts and logic.

It just like this Capt in the Navy I knew. This guy was F-14 Pilot, then head of an F-14 squad on the JFK, and finally the only Capt in the Navy to be in charge of Aircraft carrier. The Carrier was the Ranger before it got scraped. Nevertheless, he was a liberal! It blew me away. I just do not understand that?

Did you hear that former General Shalikashvili is hospitalized up in Fort Lewis, Wash?

After hearing that speech he gave for Kerry at the DemConvention, I have no doubt it's his gall bladder.

Shalikashvili and Wesley Clark worked for Clinton. The answer may be as simple as this: they knew what side their bread was buttered on, and they didn't give a damn that it was rancid butter as long as they kept their stars.

Must correct you on your statement that the guy you knew was the only Capt. in the Navy to command a carrier.

Aircraft carriers are commanded by Capts of the Navy. They must first be Naval aviators.

A Capt. in the Navy is equal to a Col. in the other branches of the Service.

Do not be in such a hurry to criticize Hack if you have never served. Hack earned his medals the hard way.
