1. Classic McCarthyism. Plain and simple.
I'd like to see people say that to the face of the vets who opposed the war.

3. I have not - is it an organized group?
Now that I answered the question, here is my opinion:

If they do exist, then they don't get it.

I would love for them to push that agenda, because it only works for us!!

7. Source article not clear.
We need a better source that indicates the "Vietnam Veterans Against John Kerry" creator is not a vet and worked on anti-clinton library, etc.

4. disinformation
however do remember that a lot of Vietnam vets will be easy pickings for the shrub when they play some of Kerry's words and comments out of context after he started protesting the war. Many of those people still are mad about that mess and can't come to grips with the fact that the war protesters they hate some much saved untold lives.

They'll always be there I suppose.

6. My dad says he's a wimp
It's all in the way he talks. The macho stunts haven't convinced him.

8. Locking...
8. If you make a factual assertion about a candidate that is not generally accepted to be true, you must provide a link to a reputable source to back up your claim. Allegedly "innocent" questions which are actually an underhanded effort to spread rumors are not allowed. If you really need to know the answer to your question, try Google.

Thanks,
