Cyber, The government criticized by Kerry were criminals. Remember Nixon, Mitchell, Haldeman, Erhlichmann, Dean etc. As usual, you don't supply any specific quote from Kerry. You just make a blanket charge that he accused his government of being criminals. I don't believe you without evidence but, the fact remains, they were criminals.

Don't lie about John Kerry on Vietnam. He's almost universally loved by veterans groups nation-wide. The largest South Carolina Veterans group (formerly Bush supporters but now furious with Bush for lying to them in 2000) have told Kerry they will back him all the way. BIO: Kerry graduated from Yale University in 1966, and served in the U.S. Navy immediately following graduation. He served in Vietnam as a lieutenant on a Mekong Delta gunboat, for which he received a Bronze Star, a Silver Star, and three Purple Heart medals. Later, Kerry co-founded the Vietnam Veterans of America, and co-founded the Vietnam Veterans Against the War movement. After an unsuccessful 1972 run for the U.S. House of Representatives, he then went on to become a prosecutor (District Attorney) in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, having graduated from Boston College Law School in 1976. Kerry won his first public election in 1982 as Lieutenant Governor. The people of Massachusetts elected John Kerry to the U.S. Senate in 1984, where he is currently serving his third term. Kerry will be up for Senatorial reelection again in 2002. In the Senate, Kerry chairs the Small Business committee, and serves on the Finance committee and on the Commerce, Science and Transportation committee. He was, in the past, a member of the Foreign Relations committee for 16 years, the ranking Democrat on the East Asian and Pacific Affairs subcommittee, and a member of the Banking, Housing and Urban Affairs committee.
