No, I am not "likening" Senator Kerrey to Hitler. It is called a "reductio ad absurdum": show the absurdity of your opponent's pressing the point (in this case the immunity of a decorated veteran to political criticism), to clarify its flaw.......

When anyone, especially one who one might consider honorable is caught telling the fairytail of 75 years old not having the strenght to push a pointed stylus through a perforated piece of card stock as a justification of create vote to steal and election for president, A trader is uncovered and there is no comparison that is low enough. All you supporter of the Gore don't know what spiritual crap you all have stepped in yet. Gore is taking the democrat party to the outhouse. All democrats will have a time of stink.

Dear Flapjack: I do not think of Kerry or even Gore as a Hitler. But I can tell you his lack of support for the Military has REALLY disappointed me. Combat Vets are a special fraternity. We KNOW what sacrifices the military makes for liberty and the pursuit of justice. I can tell you I saw several people that IMHO probably should have earned the Medal of Honor, but the circumstances were wrong, either there was no one around of sufficient rank to promote the candidate or any number of other reasons. So, while I respect his Medal of Honor I know he isnt that much different then many others. He knows that too, have you ever heard of a Medal of Honor recepient bragging? I sure havent, cause they know they were luckier than someone else. Thats all. But, he is a Combat Vet and for him to violate the sacred trust we have among each other for POLITICAL REASONS just disappoints the hell out of me. You think some old fart dragged out of bed, given a bus ride and a donut to go vote for Gore is more important than a person risking life and limb to save our asses? JDN
