While I thought Kerry was a very poor choice for the nomination, I was really steamed by the Swift Boat tactics.
Maybe his wounds weren't as severe as some would require, but the fact remains he recieved multiple purple hearts for being wounded while in country.
Although old news, I can't let this opportunity pass without comparing his service with that of Bush or Cheney.
And frankly, my hat is off to Karl Rove for his ability to make Kerry look like a war coward while working for the election of two men who avoided service. You gotta hand it to him...
