100,000 plus came home in body bags and kerry gets 3 flesh wounds in 4 months. think about it.
He was still there. Where was our president? Who's apparantly tough on terrorism?
Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
Most Pearl Jam fans probably weren't around during Vietnam, and what a horrible response when asked about where the President was. Why don't you answer the question instead of asking another one.
Where was our "war time" President during Vietnam? At least Clinton was man enough to say he was a draft dodger because he didn't believe in the war, not just he didn't want to get killed.
It wasn't Kerry's remarks that made the American public treat vietnam vets so god awful, that honor goes to Nixon and Kissinger.
they were not treated poorly. that was a myth that was fuled by the pro-war pundits. i have talked to many vietnam vets that say that was bullshit and they were treated very well upon returning. and i have seen a film out recently (forget the name) that hilights the anti-war surge within the ranks during the war that also debunks that little myth

the president was in the reserves.
with no personal experience and being an age too young to comprehend what was really going on; i have no respect for your comments.

take a trip to a VA hospital and talk with some of our people. then get back to me. i can give you a list of names of men that were spat on if it were proper in this forum.

PS; there is news footage of soldiers being spat upon as they got off the plane. i was there.

ok, lets assume that this did happen. i think we would agree that there are some asshole out there. and i do not believe these mentioned assholes should represent the entire anti-war community

I guess my years of studying history and political science doesn't make up for my not being there. I'm sure my liberal-tree loving professor was just spinning the events of Vietnam anyway. I guess you're too old to comprehend what my generation is going through now in Iraq, but at least my generation is smart enough to respect your opinion and your right to free speech.

history? HISTORY????? history says the indians attacked the soldiers at wounded knee. history didn't recognise the buffalo soldiers until recently. history is only as accurate as the person who wrote it.

i don't think you know what free speech is. ever hear of slander? let's test free speech; call the white house and threaten to kill the president. let me know about free speech when you're out of jail.
I am simple astonsihed that John Kerry's comments would get this much attention. It's not like the man walked around Arlington National Cemetary spitting on graves. Was it a stupid comment, yes but we are talking about John Kerry here. Who the fuck cares what he said, the man isn't even up for re-election.

Trust me, I have a great idea of what free speech is. In a perfect world with perfect free speech, we would be able to call the White House like you mentioned, but we can't.

like hippiemom said, they weren't operating in iraq until we invaded.
we need to get out of there.
That's hilarious! Why should Al Qaida have a right to be in Iraq and we shouldn't? Why on earth would you want to just give a country to a terrorist organization that plots to destroy your county???? Are you serious?

if you look back; someone mentioned moore's movie F-9/11. which claims he knew everything.
He was still there. Where was our president? Who's apparantly tough on terrorism?
i'm a fellow freak myself. we were freaks because our ideals were different.
where were you?
let's see in 1968 I was -14...

i cant believe people are still buying this shit
*newsflash*
iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 (repeat 10 times)
and over 1,000,000 million south asians were buried as well. and Kerry (and like minded folks) saw that to be unjust
think about it. destroying an entire fucking area of the world. for what?
for a few years, I guess you didnt know who we were fighting over there.

? i do not understand ?

being a vet (i assume) i would hope you would be more respectful of free speech and the right to dissent and disagree?
the president was AWOL. and his VP was filing deferments
which i cant blame them since it was an unjust war that slaughterted many on both sides. for what?

firstly, on the bottom of the page it says the factual accuracy of the content on this page is disputed.
bush used 9/11 as a pretext to invade iraq. he mislead the public.

funny how every generation says the same thing. paging thru history; the world is flat and the sun revolves around the earth.
saddam paid the families of the 9/11 hijackers before we got there. that in itself shows involvement or at least conspiracy.
