He served hono(u)rably and failed to consort with the enemy or
commit treason while an officer.
He has his National Defence Service Medal and
Expert Marksman's ribbon.
Oh, and he got to wear his unit's citation ribbon while he
was attached.
Its not like he manufactured bogus Purple Hearts or falsified
write ups for medals awarded for valo(ur) unlike someone we
could mention.


Four years ago, the draft-dodger Bush was running against
somebody who volunteered for the Army and was on the ground in
Vietnam, albeit in a non-combat role. Nevertheless he managed
to make himself look like the hero and the volunteer look like
a coward.


It's the NEOCON way.


You would think he would be put off this year by the
prospect of running against somebody who volunteered for the
Navy, served a full non-combat tour, then volunteered for
another tour and for combat, and was awarded a Silver Star, a
Bronze Star, and three Purple Hearts. But no, he is not fazed
a bit, and is trying to do it again...and apparently having
some success.


Kerry will win in the end. Truth will out.
