You would be SO much better to drop the Purple Hearts.

Kenneth, there is no dishonor in taking entitlements or even in actively seeking them. But the public holds "war heroes" to higher standards.

Expressions like "was grazed" and "All I felt was a burning sensation" do your candidate more harm than good.

Until John (Reporting for Duty) Kerry forced this into the open, the average person assumed that Purple Hearts are only awarded for death, loss of limb, or serious injuries that involve blood-spilling and hospitalization.

It would have so much better for Kerry (and all the other Vietnam vets with P/Hs) if the basis of his three Purple Hearts had been left to the imagination.

For your own good, don't keep rubbing people's noses in this.

Kerry recently tried to cover up his status as a Naval Officer during his anti-war activities and his meeting with the enemy. Kerry's resume on his web site showed military service from 1966-1970, and then reserve service from 1972-1978, a very unusual pattern. When he was forced to post some of his military records, it turned out that Kerry had been a member of the Naval Reserve during that period. [SOURCE]

Kerry, who was a leading antiwar activist at the time, asserted that 200,000 Vietnamese per year were being "murdered by the United States of America" and said he had gone to the Paris and "talked with both delegations at the peace talks" and met with communist representatives.
