This above statement in red is hereby awarded first prize in my "ignorance of war and the military" contest.
I recommend you buy, or check out from the library, "In Love and War" by James and Sybil Stockdale. Or pretty much ANY book written by someone who was a POW in Vietnam.
Then, try sending a message to any Vietnam POW and ask him his opinion of Kerry. I've met over thirty of them, and gotten quite an earful.
Oh, that's right. Last time I said something like this, you announced I was "bullshitting," and I don't REALLY know the people I say I do. Keep that up, and I might get motivated enough to prove it.
Especially if you're a betting man.
