>>" And yes, Kerry has never had anything decent to say about the military, to my knowledge. It is ironic that his supporters think he deserves consideration, when he gave none to our soldiers in the 70's, and gives none today. "<< Yup, the man certainly is not "decent" to the military. Now if he would only be responsible for 3000+ dead and another 20,000+ maimed for life so he could get his family revenge, then he would truly be "decent". Hell, when he was calling for Congress to stop the killing in Vietnam, he should have been "decent" and said something such as "Bring em on"!!

It is ironic that his supporters think he deserves consideration, when he gave none to our soldiers in the 70's, and gives none today. It also takes a lot of gall on their part, as well as Kerry's, to diss the people who served with him and knew him best. I had the pleasure of meeting John O'Neill in person, and I've never met a nicer man. Salt of the earth. I definitely came away with the impression that Kerry was more or less well liked while serving, they were even willing to tolerate the back-stabbing and puffing himself at their expense, even a little resume-padding as long as it was just talk, but when he made his Vietnam service the centerpiece of his campaign and at the same time lied about not only his service but theirs that was just too much to take from a man who was attempting to become the most powerful man in the world. I was proud to shake the hands of the Swiftboat vets and thank them for their service.

KLP you say the most vile things about someone you know very little about. Kerry did more to protect the US military than you could ever conceive. And yes, Kerry has never had anything decent to say about the military, to my knowledge. We are asking Americans to think about that because how do you ask a man to be the last man to die in Vietnam? How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake? But we are trying to do that, and we are doing it with thousands of rationalizations, and if you read carefully the President's last speech to the people of this country, you can see that he says, and says clearly... ice.he.net
