We're not gonna get into this "missing the point" conversation again, are we?
My comment was to Bilmore, recalling an earlier thread about how the Conservative Smear Du Jour vacillates between Sissified Wimp ("Only 4 months in Country? Barely wounded? That Pussy!") and Crazed Killing Machine with Little Care for Human Life.
Bilmore didn't believe the Kerry-as-Thor comparisons, and your helpful little article (thanks for that) contains wonderful little quips like "The evidence shows John Kerry was a ruthless operator in the field, with little regard for life." Coming from the Washington Times? You don't get much more Establishment than that, baby.
So, let's keep 'em coming, kids. Red America can't connect with someone from such a privileged background, but they CAN connect with military service. What a twang, multiple failed oil companies and an stride apparently borne from excessive time on a horse can accomplish for one candidate, images of a bloodthirsty Vietnam veteran razing entire villages with a Zippo lighter can do for another.
