Woah. President Rambo.February 28, 1969:
Kerry and his boat crew, coming under attack while patroling in the Mekong Delta, decide to counterattack. In the middle of the ensuing firefight, Kerry leaves his boat, pursues a Viet Cong fighter into a small hut, kills him, and retreives a rocket launcher. He is awarded a Silver Star.
It's strange we might have a president who has personally killed people.Comment

I meant "personally" as in physically, face-to-face.Originally posted by tranza
Like that would be a first time.... Geez...
Not ordered someone else to do it.
Bush Jr avoided going to war.
Clinton avoided going to war.
Bush Sr was a pilot.*
Reagan may have shot someone in a movie?
... and that's as far back as my age allows me to remember.
Who was the last US President to fight on the frontlines?
*not saying being a pilot isn't dangerous.
But it's not same as having to stare someone in the eyes before you kill them,
seeing the look on their face as they die, and then washing their blood off you.
I looked it up and Kenedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, and Carter
were all in the Navy, but I'm not sure what that meant in those times.
Amazing coincidence, so I'm guessing this was a priviledged position?
Eisenhower was in the army, but a quick search only brings up
vague info like "he commanded" and I don't know if that means
he was actually there, or safely behind the ranks.(?)Comment

Kerry has certainly got some balls.
But personally i'd rather be Bush, getting flown in to date the presidents daughter is kinda cool. too bad he is still an idiot.Telegram PhoenixBrad

Kennedy was a war hero on par with Kerry.
Gogobar, he doesn't get it from his daddy, who got it from his daddy before him and so on and so forth, that's good enough for me.
Marrying into money is just smart. Being born into it and thinking you earned it is stupid.Comment

Either way he didn't earn it. It's ONLY when you DO earn it that it impresses me. He's just as much of a snob as the next oneOriginally posted by dig420

You do know where Kerry gets his money from right?
If I recall right Kerry is married to one of the richest woman in the US.
For sure he is not doing it to steal form the tax payer.SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.Comment

Kennedy's War Story
Eisenhower was a general in WWII, but for WWI he trained troops in the US and never saw combat
Truman served on the front in WW I (at age 33). Prbably killed his share of the enemy then.Somebody stole my damn signture...Comment
