Show me when Kerry has ever bragged. He never has and never will. But I will brag for him.

Kerry bagged 20+ kills on the ground, not up in the sky with chain guns and rockets. Big difference. You know how hard that is to kill 20+ combatants on the ground with just an M-16, especially firing from a wobbly boat?

Kerry not only has never bragged about it, he never even discusses the details. See today's speech for instance. story.news.yahoo.com

The reason I brag for Kerry is because Bush made military service an issue. GW Bush is a phony draft-dodger who went AWOL and lied about it but now poses as a war president.
Yet he took us into war on false pretenses and has over-taxed our military to the breaking point so now we are far more vulnerable limited in our response ability elsewhere. Bush also went into war without proper planning and without properly equipping our troops. His father did it right. GW did it wrong.

Bush also made Kerry's true combat heroism an issue by putting on a uniform he had no business wearing on that air-craft carrier, and also sitting by while his lying attack dogs called real war heros McCain, Cleland and Kerry "traitors". Bush is a lousy Commander In Chief and anyone who disparages Kerry's war record or claims he boasts about it is a bald-faced liar.
