More SMEARVET LIES exposed.
One Smearvet openly lied that Kerry was wounded by "rice". Kerry's medical report shows he's got shrapnel in him. So if one more smearvets is an exposed liar, let's face it, they ALL are. And by the way, these type wounds can KILL, they're not minor:
From NY Times - AP:
"A group of veterans has challenged the validity of the three Purple Hearts that Mr. Kerry received for wounds he suffered while serving on Swift boats in the Vietnam war. These critics suggested that the shrapnel that hit him in one mission was rice, not metal.
However, CT scan X-rays taken at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston document that two pieces of metal shrapnel are embedded deep in Mr. Kerry's left thigh, next to the femur, said Dr. Gerald J. Doyle, Mr. Kerry's personal physician in Boston who reviewed the X-rays at the request of this reporter, who is a physician. Doctors treating the wound in 1969 decided to leave the shrapnel in place. "One piece of shrapnel is about the size of a bullet, the other a bit smaller," Dr. Doyle said.
Mr. Kerry said, "I can't tell you I really feel it," but "it's back in here somewhere," as he slapped his thigh. |
