And then to be dissed by POS senator John Kerry
Kerry another stupid ahole.

"Kerry's committee did not invite any witness from the Iraq Veterans Against the War, the modern-day analog of the antiwar group he represented when he testified in 1971. That group, which includes Afghanistan war veterans, has called for an end to the Afghan war. At least three out of the four Afghan war veterans who will testify tomorrow oppose a US withdrawal.

Kerry himself, now an elder statesman and key ally of the president, has resisted drawing parallels with Vietnam.

"In Vietnam, there was no threat to the United States in any direct form whatsoever," Kerry said in a recent telephone interview. "The consequence of not being in Vietnam was in no way to increase the danger to America. The exact opposite is true in Afghanistan with Al Qaeda. The threat is very real."
