Its not easy to get 216 swift boat veterans to stick to the party lines all the time. Regardless, they showed:
1.) Kerry deliberately and forcefully lied in Congress about his presence in Cambodia;
2.) Kerry was writing himself up for all sorts of medals, at least one of which he certainly didn't deserve, and at least 2 of which were used in his quest to get out of combat duty early;
3.) Vietnam veterans, as a group, hate John Kerry... and the public should understand they, as a group, are offended by his whole "reporting for duty" bullshit.
