This veteran, and those with whom I associate, place John Kerry right
up there with Jane Fonda on our list of despicable people.
Possible trap - please step in it:
1) What labels do you have for Henry Kissinger during the time when Kerry
was doing the things which you feel made him a traitor? And, could you
please refresh me on what activities you feel made him a traitor?
2) What labels do you have for thousands of other vets who came home from
that war totally disgusted with our government and its policies?
3) What labels do you have for the parents whose political viewpoints
were
radicalized by the foolishness of that war?
None of them are running for President. I've never labeled Kerry a
traitor. Where did that come from?
Kerry made implications about soldiers serving in Vietnam. I performed
none of his claimed atrocities. None of my soldiers performed those
atrocities (that I'm aware of), and I know of none having been
performed in the division to which I was assigned. I found the My Lai
massacre atrocious and think the officer in charge should have been
hung.
Kerry indicates that "free fire zones" allowed the intentional killing
of women and children. Bull****.

Perhaps they exaggerated based on an emotionally charged climate. And, I
used the word traitor because I believe it was pivotal earlier in this
thread. But, let's replace that with "despicable", so you can answer the 3
questions I posed for you. Whether someone's running for president is
irrelevant. Unless you subscribe to the deity mentality, they are people who
are equal to you and I.
