Heck, I think most of the hoopla is just because of fuzzy
memories. In dire situations so much stuff is going on that people
remember different things in different order, etc. It even happens
with car wrecks - it appears to happen with combat actions, too. The
"resume padding" that intrigues me isn't the Silver Star award - the
descriptions of that seem pretty plausible to me - but I have to
wonder why the award was re-written three times, signed by a bigger
fish each time. Perhaps that's punching it up a little to get a big
shot like Lehman on the signature line. I don't pretend to understand
how that process works, it's just that it seems strange.

Voting record...that's something else. Both candidates have
done plenty to displease me. I hate choices like that.
