There are many Media people who are now in high places who were young enough back then to be aware of things during Vietnam. They are now resurrecting the Vietnam stuff that they experienced back then.
Many of them are working in Media, and are now in supervisory positions. They can now create a News environment that addresses their issues.

George W. Bush never "loathed" the military or called them "baby killers". 'Nuff said.

If Kerry thinks he can do better, he should put away his scrapbook and start telling Americans what he plans to do to spare future generations the anguish and the cost of war.Finally, someone has said what needs to be said (and written) often.
On the positive side, as time goes on, people of our generation and later think of Teddy and Patches when we hear the name "Kennedy" -- we don't think at all of JFK, RFK and all that Camelot hooey. It's about time for that, too.

Is JFKerry pimping his war movies? This is the second time I have read about him making movies while in Vietnam, too bad he didn't use them as evidence in that Congressional Hearing.

Do you notice that those who keep pushing the Vietnam War as a political issue are those who were the protestors. (By the way, did you know that Kerry actually served in Vietnam?)
The former protestors are in a quadrant of voters that is growing smaller and less relevant by the day, and they want so much to be relevant. Their whole existence is based on the idea that they, and only they, cared enough to protest. It is no coincidence that these unrepentant liberals are the same idiots who think the terrorists just need more hugs, and it is all America's fault.
The veterans from Gulf War I and II are mostly Gen-X and younger. They, and their families and friends, are politically relevant, and will be for years to come.
Those poor souls that Clinton sent to Somalia, Bosnia, and Kosovo seem to have disappeared into the Democrat black hole of history, but God bless them anyhow. You can bet they haven't forgotten the favor. Maybe this year their votes will get counted.
