More veterans take your position than mine. But let me remind you that at least 1/3 of the veterans support my point of view.

Yes. You are right about that 1/3 now. And earlier this year, you would have been right if you told us 1/2 of all Veterans were for Kerry.
Are you on a sinking swiftboat?

Another 500,000 of O'Neil's books are about to go into the distribution channels. Lets give them a few weeks to be read and see where we are.

This is a tragedy. The tragedy is that Veterans are being used from both sides - and it is hurting all veterans.

The only Veteran who is being hurt by this is John Kerry and he invented the subject.

Mary, <<" We have to find out the truth.">>
the truth is out,, that is what Kerry does not like. You said about 1/3 of vets support Kerry,, of the ones I know it seems to follow the same percentage of Swifties-- about 250 to 6 ANTI-Kerry. The dems could have recd more vet votes had the put Charles Manson on the ticket than Kerry. Whoops-- the last general to speak states the fact Kerry is a traitor. Also, Viet veterans have lived with Kerrys smears of us for decades. Your comment that it is hurting all veterans is not true. Kerrys supporters are on stage with him and compensated nicely. Believe me,,the truth coming out is not hurting the rest of us in anyway-- now Kerry it hurts. A little pay back makes us feel damn good! We do agree we want our country to be strong-- a very good reason not to vote for a coward that ran from the fight by submitting false reports.

Tom Harkin, Crazed Moron, was shouting this week that Dick Cheney is a "coward," evidently for not fighting in Vietnam like Harkin. Except Harkin didn't fight in Vietnam either! The last time Harkin was bragging about his Vietnam service was in 1984 when he told David Broder of The Washington Post: "I spent five years as a Navy pilot, starting in November of 1962. One year was in Vietnam. I was flying F-4s and F-8s on combat air patrols and photo-reconnaissance support missions."

Sen. Barry Goldwater -- not the Post -- checked with the Defense Department and soon Harkin was forced to admit he had never been in combat in Vietnam, but was based in Japan during the war, ferrying damaged planes from the Saigon airport to Japan for repairs. Oops!
