You don't consider gunshot and shrapnel wounds serious?



Don, you are missing the point. Indeed one would think that gunshot and
shrapnel wounds would be serious, especially if they resulted in being
honored with Purple Hearts. On would think that they would also result in
some serious hospital time for recovery.

The problem is that Kerry served no serious time in the hospital due to
these "wounds". In fact I think he spent no overnight time in any
hospital
as a result of these *injuries*.

What a piece of **** this man is.

What a strong man Kerry is, Gunshot and Shrapnel wounds, in the filthy
terrain of Nam, Leaches in most all water sources. Wearing the same clothing
for days on end. Bugs crawling everywhere. Sweltering heat, sweating most
all the time.

And here Kerry is, Shot... And going back out in all of it to fight
alongside the rest of his buddies.

And you think he would be more of a man for laying back in a hospital...
Naaaa the bravery shows, he served, he was wounded and continued to serve.

BTW, I hear nobody has stepped forward to say Bush ever showed up in
Alabama.
