Last Tuesday, if I violated the traffic laws of our state, yet was not charged or ticketed, does that mean I didn't violate the law?

If you want to defend what kerry done in an unauthorized meeting with the Vietcong as a naval reservist, that's your choice.

Then how do you explain Nixon (no friend to Kerry, LOL!) failing to bring charges?

Two reasons...

1. Nixon was distracted by Watergate.

2. Treason is very hard to prove...requires two eyewitnesses willing to testify. Anyone willing to testify against Kerry would have to have been in the same room and guilty of the same offense. Kerry's actions DO qualify for treason at least prima facie...we charged Tokyo Rose, Lord Hawhaw, etc. after WWII for similar offenses...
