And JFK. The point, however, is that when politics was respectable (i.e., before it was all taken over by the media) it was considered UNSEEMLY for a man to run for office on his war record. None of the names you mentioned did, BTW. There was a GOOD REASON for this.

The danger to the nation comes to light with the domestic enemy's recent RAPE of the reputation of poor, old, senile John Murtha. The anti-American Democrats have taken outrageous advantage of this feeble old fart whose district has re-elected him, without a thought, for far too many decades.

The Democrat domestic enemy has been stymied by the transparent reality that they are a pack of traitors, and Americans refuse, in general, to confer power on traitors. SO they USE someone's war record (including the totally BUGUS record of one John Kerry) to try and bamboozell people into voting for their totally-unfit anti-American candidates.

There have been plenty of liberals in office who served respectably in war (enough for my desire for a nickel each.) But what we tend to ignore is that they built their subsequent POLITICAL careers by selling out their decency to the local UNIONS, or other groups with a special interest in robbing the taxpaying public. They should be judged on their FAILURES as politicians, rather then their war records...
