No you don't, not when John Kerry is speaking. Your very next words show an apologia disregarding the PLAIN MEANING of what Kerry said all throughout his VVAW days.
He has now been revealed to have been a traitor...working directly on the talking points handed to him by the North Vietnamese enemy with every intention of demoralizing the U.S. Troops. This has been conclusively proven now. I question whether Carter's pardon would cover the newly-discovered treason. The guys below don't think we should be cutting the guy any more slack.
