patgund"No good deed goes unpunished, and these days that certainly includes John Kerry's service in Vietnam.
I'm sure this young Yale man could have found a way to avoid going over there, but Kerry signed up.
He volunteered to serve as skipper on a swift boat flushing out the enemy along rivers and canals. He rescued a soldier and earned medals for valor and for combat wounds.
Now this band of bothers turns up in books and television ads saying they served somewhere near Kerry in 'Nam and they think he's a no-good liar and an unworthy soldier. And, oh yeah, vote George W. Bush for president.
"I just think it's wrong."
- Republican State Rep. Terry Musser, chairman of the Wisconsin Assembly Committee on Veterans and Military Affairs, and the co-chairman of Wisconsin Veterans for Bush.
