Yet another thread turned into a Bush Vrs. Kerry argument when neither of them had really anything to do with what I was talking about. Pretty sad.

that is just wrong. No party in america, should do this or for that matter stand for it.

Well I'm hoping it's just a few "wrong doers" and not an actual party sactioned thing.

not going to happen, that is the sad fact of politics in america. Personally i won't be surprise if it really pisses a few vets of and it will make bush come under critism like that of the ack of a fleet of about 30 ships.

a couple guys were handing out bandaids and purple hearts on the floor of the RNC in order to poke at kerry.

You seemed to have twisted that up...

They were Band-Aids with a purple heart on them; as in a heart that was colored purple; not the medal.

I guess everyone needs something to be indignant about but to me it is funny if you don’t distort the context.

A guy said he cut himself shaving and wrote himself up and his wife presented him with the Band-Aid.

yeah thats pretty darn low class. I hope they put a stop to it, or the Dems make a big deal out of it and make the tools who did it look dumb on a national level.

I agree with you.

Wotan that is BS and you know it. Any grown man shouldn't be wearing a Children's band aid that has a pruple heart. The low life was trying to make a point, that is absolutely disgusting. He has no right to do.

horrible.

Unless you want a bunch of fake heroes running around tarnishing what the real ones did, you better step back and think about why things like this need to be looked at.

There are real people who fake being war heroes.

Including this actor. (the Sheriff from first blood) Brian Dennehy

It sucks, that people do stuff like this but as US citizens we have a right to question this and anything else. Especialy since Kerry is using it in his run for president.

I dont like it.

Ok so we do, but how exactly do we know kerry is lying. We know we served in vietnam. So anything is possible.
