Mr. Dole, a former Republican presidential nominee and Kansas senator, said he has a "quarrel" with Mr. Kerry for receiving three Purple Hearts while serving only four months in battle. "I said John Kerry's a hero. But what I will always quarrel about are the Purple Hearts. I mean, the first one, whether he ought to have a Purple Heart — he got two in one day, I think. And he was out of there in less than four months, because three Purple Hearts and you're out," Mr. Dole told CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer." "But three Purple Hearts and never bled, that I know of? I mean, they're all superficial wounds," said Mr. Dole of the military decoration for troops wounded in battle. "And as far as I know, he's never spent one day in the hospital. I don't think he draws any disability pay. He doesn't have any disability — and boasting about three Purple Hearts, when you think of some of the people who really got shot up in Vietnam," Mr. Dole said.

Kerry Proven Liar--Again "Lt. Kerry returned home from the war to make some outrageous statements and allegations... numerous criminal acts in violation of the law of war were cited by Kerry, disparaging those who had fought with honor in that conflict. Had war crimes been committed by US forces in Vietnam? Yes, but such acts were few and far between. Yet Lt. Kerry gave numerous speeches and testimony before Congress inappropriately leading his audiences to believe that what was only an anomaly in the conduct of America's fighting men was an epidemic. Furthermore, he suggested that they were being encouraged to violated the law of war by those within the chain of command. Very specific orders, on file at the Vietnam archives at Texas Tech University, were issued by my father [Admiral Elmo Zumwalt] and others in his chain of command instructing subordinates to act responsibly in preserving the life and property of Vietnamese civilians." -- Lt. Col. James Zumwalt, USMC (retired)
