Very interesting.

There is a clear distinction, not only between Kerry and King George, but Kerry 
and Hanoi Jane as well.

Kerry is a well decorated Vietnam combat veteran.  Hanoi Jane was photographed 
sitting on a North Vietnamese anti-aircraft gun while captured pilots were 
tortured beyond imagination

Kerry stood proudly for his moral convistions and testified to a senate 
subcommittee about reasons why we should withdraw from Vietnam.  King George's 
dad pulled strings so that he would stay home and lie about his military 
service some thirty years later.

I know who I am voting for.
