our politics are so screwed. I remember kerry during his run for the presidency. and his "whites" in vietnam. never looked like he worked up a sweat in vietnam for the most part. I asked a family member who spent a year in the brown water navy about that, given the heat/humidity in vietnam. His comment was he understood it, if for the most part you never left an a/c controlled building.
Then seeing tapes of him at paris, while he was still a member of the navy calling our troops baby killers.
the media never did vet him properly.
or that famous picture of al gore with the butt of an m16 on the ground, barrel pointed at h is head. he had a good gig tho, office worker in saigon with his daddy's bodyguards.
