I'm of two minds about these accusations. My inclination is to say, let's not go there. The man served in Vietnam, he should be honored for that service

now what would be your second notion???.....given by your own confession that you were never there....

I''m fascinated by the 23 year period after Viet Nam where he lists no deployments, no major awards and only two promotions????????What the hell was going on?

I'm not happy about someone inflating their injuries to get a medal, and to use that false record to gain political office. Not happy at all.

It's just that I hate to kick a Vietnam vet, forty years after the fact. Kerry was another story, the Dems had already attacked Bush with many false reports about being AWOL, etc. SO, Kerry was fair game.

Murtha is a lesser fish. He's just an attack dog for the Democratic party.
