"They never lost their honor among the American people, just the Old Media and extreme left whackos."

You should have been in my shoes in Sept 69 in Chicago

I had just got out of the Navy.

I was denied admission to Northwestern University and
learned NOT to even mention that I was a Viet Nam Vet
on job interviews.

And the left were empowered more when
Hanoi Kerry "testified" in April 71

Odd I was there when Hanoi Kerry was.

He STILL serves illegally as a US Senator.

Wonder if I could be a US Senator also?

You go for it. Maybe the freepers will be behind you too. Do you have enough bull for the job? Tee Hee.

Maybe people just knew not to say anything bad about veterans around me.

VFW was not all that loving in maNy places either. I lead a protest against the president of my college, for his anti-war position, and a group of us went to the local VFW, to enlist their help. (We needed money to telegraph a petition)

Reception was cool at best, so we brought our DD 214's down and joined the post. They helped but were not all that enthusiastic about us joining their club;

Our protest garnered a front page article and picture in the Kansas City Star.
