Vets, Valor, and Vindicate.

Like I said before I can't be objective in the debates. Bush rocked imo, but a good analysis (even international headlines!) is here.


If you really want to understand the outrage by some Veterans at the thought of a Kerry presidency then you need to read Stolen Valor by B.G. Burkett. (not to be confused with the nutso Rather/memogate Burkett)

In a related story Sinclair Broadcast Group will be airing a film, "Stolen Honor. Wounds that never heal," a few days before the election nationwide that attacks Kerry's activism during the Vietnam war. It is funded by Pennsylvania veterans.
David Wade, a spokesman for the Kerry campaign said "Its not the american way for powerful corporations to strong-arm local broadcasters to air lies promoting a political agenda." Wonder if he has a problem with this.

Both book and film outline for us the horrible distortion that Kerry and others painted of Vietnam Veterans. Look no further than Dan Rather for an example of aiding and abetting these distortions. (funny how his name keeps coming up) In Rather's 1988 CBS documentary (well, that's what they called it) "The Wall Within," Veterans were portrayed as homeless drunks or druggies with accounts of murder and atrocities witnessed by 6 'Vietnam Veterans.' Burkett found in his research that only one of them had actually served in combat.
Bottom line here...CBS and Rather are propaganda outlets for the extreme left and they make me sick. There is no way to measure the damage Kerry and Rather did to a generation of men who bravely served and fought. Vietnam was obviously an example of politicians fighting a war instead of soldiers. But that does not diminish the sacrifice and courage of the men who fought there.
Burkett also found that the myth of the drug addled Vietnam Vet was completely untrue. Studies have shown that Vietnam Veterans have been just as successful in life and business as past Veterans (which is very successful). And considering what stereotypes they had to overcome because of despicable characters like Kerry and Rather, that is saying something.

God, I love our soldiers.



Guess you heard about the ABC memo? Who says the media isn't bias?
