He took the NVA's "talking points", and brought them back to the US, and then pushed for their adoption. That, my friend, is a TEXTBOOK case of giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

As I said not that many posts ago, just because you say it's true doesn't make it so. I'm glad that most American conservatives are not the sort who see every political opponent as some Stalinesque or traitorous bogeyman. Obviously, neither party is going to endorse someone who parroted NVA "talking points." We need to temper the passions of this fiery election season with a little common sense.
Noted liberal John McCain condemned the attacks on John Kerry's war record. That should speak for itself. Can't we leave the most vicious political rhetoric off of this board?
