OK, let me try to get this straight.

Kerry comes home from Viet Nam, and in testifying about the bad stuff that went on, demeans ALL Viet Nam veterans. That point has been made many times here on this forum.

The Swift Boat Vets claim that Kerry simply wrote reports that ended up with his getting his various medals. Who knew it was so easy to get Purple Hearts and Bronze Stars? All someone has to do is write a report. How do the Swifties not demean every medal holder with their claim that it was so easy to get those medals?

I'm serious. I don't get it.

because most medal awardees didn't initiate the process. there is a presupposition of honor here which they're saying the "boston strangler" didn't exhibit.
(btw, the quoted phrase was his call sign)
