<<<are you not bothered by the lack of integrity of a man who slandered his former comrades in order to win an election?>>> John Kerry risked his life in combat service to his country. He earned (not that you have to earn it) his right to free speech. He loves his country as much as you do. He does not question your patriotism or your right to free speech. He came back from war to tell the American people what he thought. He thought (I am liberally - pardon the phrase - paraphrasing) war is hell. People do things they ordinarily would not do - including himself. He did not think people in power should send other people's children to war - if there is no urgent reasons for it. He did not think fighting for Vietnamese people (especially when most of them did not want us there) was worth killing American soldiers. He thought the war in Vietnam was a mistake. He earned his right to speak - again, not that you have to earn that right.
