Well, there's at least one redeeming quality.

To go along with the Silver Star, the Bronze Star and three Purple Hearts.
And all in a war he was opposed to. I find that somewhat redeeming.

Are you saying there's no such thing as a Silver Star, or that Kerry never
got one? In both cases you'd be wrong.

Kerrey was put in for a silver star and awarded bronze.

Kerrey was put in for a silver star and awarded bronze.

According to CNN (and numerous other sources), Kerry has been awarded both
distinctions:
"It was in 1971 that Kerry, then 27, appeared before the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee to speak out against U.S. policy in Vietnam.

His stance drew attention both because of his military record -- he had
served as an officer in the Navy and had been awarded a Silver Star, Bronze
Star and three Purple hearts ..."

My mistake then.

Kerry sounds a lot like Davis.

And that testimony is going to be a part of his downfall when it gets
thoroughly analyzed during the later campaign.

He was awarded both. This is easily verified.

No, Kerry was awarded the Silver Star, and a Bronze Star with "V" device.

All that said does not equal credibility.

Hell, Hitler had the Iron Cross something or other equivalent to our
Distinguished Service Cross.

Big Whoop!!
