Harkin, earlier in his career, claimed to have been a Vietnam fighter pilot, which was exposed as a lie.
Kerry made a grand show in the early 70s of trashing his Vietnam earned medals...later proved to have been someone else's.
Yeah. These are sterling character models, alright.
I have always wondered why Kerry isn't just PUMMELED about the whole medal thing. I mean why should we have any respect for him as a "vet" when he supposedly rejected everything about the war. Didn't he forfeit ANY right to claim he's some kind of hero?
