John Kerry gets a response from Vietnam vets.

[mburbank]

Tiger force and winter soldier and Mai lai for that matter, are proof that Americans regularly committed atrocities during the Vietnam war. Kerry claims he saw such things. So do a number of Vets I've worked with. Where is the 'proof' he didn't? We know those events were there to see. How do you know what happened with units and in places Kerry was?

I challenge you to find a single contemporary report of someone spitting on a returning US vet. Even one. You won't. It's a shiboleth.

"that's why vets are angry at Kerry. And that's a fact. "
No, that is an opinion. Some Vets, certainly. How many? I have no idea, and neither do you. Six? Sixty? Six hundred? To my knowledge, no one has done a survey of Vietnam vets and how the feel about Kerry. I believe you are certain in your heart about how the majority of vets feel. That's nice, but it's not a fact by any definition of the word I'm aware of.

"Maybe, but they don't blame Bush."
Thank you, Psychic Ronnie.

"Kerry might be able round up a few for a photo op. The vast majority will be against him. "
Thank you, Psychic Ronnie.

"The fact is that it hurts the left and exposes them for who they really are. "
Confuse the word 'fact' for 'opinion' again and I'll be force to confuse you with Vinth. That would hurt me.

"Bush isn't claiming that he "owns" 9/11. I don't know what you are talking about. "
So if Kerry were to use footage of bodies being dragged out of the wreckage of the twin towers in his adds, that wouldn't be a problem for the RNC? Or would they be too busy threatening frivolous law suits to tie up our courts and frighten people. Where's torte reform when you need it?
