Pretty much.

We have many people with medals pinned to their chests but they don't have to use those medals to prop up an indefensible position. I excuse RINO's who are as bad as the Dems in propping medlas. I don't think it would even normally occur to them to abuse the intent of the medals by making them campaign props.

I never heard of Johnson until the 403-3 vote and he puts this guy, Murtha, McCain, Hagel, kerry and all to shame. What does it say about the positions of these latter guys that they'd be nothing without the medals while it's clear Johnson stands on his own with or without?

One of these days the Dems are going to finally cop a clue that it isn't the medal or the uniform that makes the man/woman. It's about character. It's about certain tried and true values that they have abandoned. It's about love for country and service to something higher than self. Maybe some of them knew that once when they were in active service. But now they are in active POLITICAL service, and they don't get to escape the designation of POLITICIAN because in a past life they were something better.

A line doesn't sound right. Slight correction for proper meaning to come through.

We have many people with medals pinned to their chests but they don't have to use those medals to prop up an indefensible position [I exempt RINO's who are as bad as the Dems in propping medals]. I don't think it would even normally occur to them [Republicans/Conservatives] to abuse the intent of the medals by making them campaign props.

I don't think the "clue" about the uniforms and medals will happen any time soon...

I keep hearing the libs on Air Amerika say that they have over a dozen Iraq war veterans lined up to challenge some GOP incumbents in the House....

I am sure that will be the ONLY thing they will tout...is the fact that they are veterans...

I am sorry....but ever since Kerry's not so little stunt in the 70's....it is not gonna work to just say...

"So and so reporting for duty"...anymore!
