   When he was campaigning against John Edwards, Howard Dean, et al,   
   John Kerry kept bringing up his Vietnam War service, as if his Silver Star,   
   Bronze Star, and three purple hearts should innoculate him against charges   
   that he is weak terrorism and national security - which he is.   
      
   Kerry kept bringing it up, and now the vets are going to shove it up his   
   ass.
