I bet his fists did not look wimpy to the soliders he was saving along Vietcong waters in his patrol boat. I totally disagree with many of his views, did not vote for him when I lived in MA, and would not like to see him become president.
But, please do not belittle him, show some respect. He paid his dues before most of us even had hair.

Just a little research will show that Kerry was not the hero the media is trying to make him. Just because you were in VietNam doesn't make you a war hero

I dissagree with what some call hero status. I respect all who serve and have served in our military with honor. President Bush included.
I served in the navy, but I'm no hero. I didn't have to put my life on the line, save a buddy from death or carry out a suicide mission and live to tell about it.
For me, to use the term "hero" to describe every average joe in the military is like spreading ketchup on everything in an attempt to make everything taste the same. It cheapens the meaning. What distinguishes those who have really earned the title of hero from the average joe? If we call all are armed services, "special forces", what then, makes the special forces so special? If we call all our military personal "heroes" what then, make real heroes special?
A Medal of Honor, the highest possible, or a lesser medal is only given to those who have earned it, to those who went above and beyond the call of duty without reguard to their own safty. If every service member were to be given such a medal upon leaving the service, then there is no distinction between those who have earned it and those who just received it for time served. I believe the title of hero and the medals that go with it should be reserved to those who have earned it by going above and beyond. It set's them apart from everybody else.

Does serving in Vietnam automatically mean you are immune from critisism on the internet or that you are a "good person"?
While many men and women deserve respect for serving in the military (either in wartime or not) life is a large complicated thing and you cannot judge a person on such a small part of it.

"said Kerry, who won three Purple Hearts, one Bronze star and one Silver star in Vietnam."
I do believe that to be more metals won in combat than most presidents have to show for their military record, eh! Those are man hands.

Hreed, please show me some of that research you're referring to with regards to Kerry's service record. I don't have much time for research at this time so I've been unable to find anything.
Being a know Dem to most that know me on this board, I still can't say who will win my vote (since Dono's not running anymore), but it sure won't be "W". Hope the strings are all tied this time so he isn't able to be "selected" again.

Here's the official site:

This one is real handy, it links to many of the world's major newspapers (English versions) and columnists for different views:

Incidently, the US is one of the few countries that consider crusher or firm handshakes as anything but rude.
