I never said anything about his length of service, just his time in Vietnam. And it wasn't a lie, I was recalling from my memory, which, if wrong, was wrong. Just like most of your assumptions. Regardless, there is little difference between 1 1/2 months and 4 months.

I don't recall anyone saying that Kerry is a "hero" but he did go to war for his country and got shot at and his opponents did not.

I don't recall anyone saying he was either, I merely stated I wasn't defeding Bush, nor approving Kerry.

Your upset that Kerry volunteered to fight in a war for his country.

No, I'm not. I live in the same country and am a veteran myself.

When he found out if was a bunch of bullshit he became disillusioned with the war and the government leaders that were leading it.

Wait, He became disillusioned? So he IS wrong? I think what you meant is that he changed his feelings / opionions of the war. That is fine, I can respect that. But to this day he flip flops more than the stations on my TV during football games on Sunday.

So what is the problem?

My problem was with the hypocriscy of people slamming Bush for his military service when they themselves stated they would run if there was a draft. If you haven't, then this thread wasn't even meant for you.
