Please don't make that presumption. Many claimed to be Vietnam Veterans who were phonies that were part of the anti-war crowd looney lefties. It is happening again now. The book Stolen Valor provides documentation that many that claimed to be Vietnam Veterans supporting the left never served in the military at all or never served in Vietnam. You can also do a search on Winter Soldier for more about the phonies that were used for political purposes. The left did not just recently become devious.
You don't have to say it.
We're all thinking it.
An excellent and most appropriate choice of quote.

His killers dropped out of high school to become dealers.
The “16 year old” should be charged as an adult, and then FRIED.
The ‘adult’ should be FRIED.
It is past time our Criminal Justice system QUIT pandering to the Criminals and started dispensing JUSTICE. No matter the color, or age of the criminal.
There’s a scumbag Democrat senator, Tom Harkin, who got caught being a fake Vietnam vet.
The geniuses from Iowa keep re-electing him anyway.
Gosh, now what are the odds of that?
[Seriously though, this REALLY p*sses me off. May God richly reward that hero for his service to his country.]
I think this is a fairly recent pic of him, in this article:

I didn't make the presumption. That was a quote from a 2004 FR article. I provided a link to it. In any case, you make a good point.
More credence is given to a baby killer than a war hero.
"Shortly after taking office in 1985, Kerry and Senator Tom Harkin of Iowa went on a fact-finding trip to Nicaragua, where they met with Daniel Ortega (right) and other Sandinistas. The trip was criticized when the Sandinistas cemented ties with Moscow."

Add a note to the women:
If at all possible, do NOT shop after dark and park as close to the store as you possibly can.
Shop in groups.
Even if you have to fake it, look like you’re talking to somebody on your cellphone when leaving the store.
Be aware of your surroundings at ALL times.
Learn to adopt a “don’t you -dare- F with -me-” stomp and glare.
[and stick a sharp dagger in your purse if you live where you can’t carry something “better”...a slim chance is better than none]
From the nearest Quercus alba: Long may the two low lifes wave!
Just don’t feed them ‘cause they shouldn’t sh*t all over the electric chair when they ride the lightning.
You better hope the mods don’t know taxonomy.....:))
We’ve got some pacifist nurses here in Alabama who carry a glass vial of deer urine (or from a gland, I forget) in their purses.
When they leave a night shift and have to walk to the edge of the hospital parking lot, they hold the vial in one hand.
Dropping the vial breaks the glass and emits an aroma several times more offensive than ou de skunk, detering most criminals and providing a physical erection barrier to rapists.
These vials are sold at most hunting stores. Ladies, if you can’t or won’t pack heat, at least carry the glass vial.
If you will carry heat, all the better. There are in-between options as well for you ladies such as pepper spray, bean-bag guns, flare pistols, ink bombs, stun grenades, and stun guns.
So while a firearm is preferred, there is still no reason to be completely defenseless simply because someone doesn’t like weapons.
A glass vial of offensive scent is something even a pacifist can ethically carry.
Don’t be a defenseless victim!
Break your vanity mirror inside your purse to use the glass to cut an attacker in an emergency.
Walk with a large dog whenever possible. Better yet, with a large, armed man.
Buy or make your own bulletproof purse or backpack (bulletproofme.com and eBay sell inexpensive used body armor panels that can easily be sewn into purses, coats, briefcases, and backpacks to give you a shield).
Do something! Pick one or more options above, from firearms to ballistic panels to glass vials of offensive scent.
