Contrary to what some republicans seem to believe, you can have both big balls and credibility. You don't have to choose between 'tough' and 'smart'.
The difference between the USA and Nazi Germany are that we have people willing to stand up to our leaders and hold them accountable. (like Kerry did) If Germany had citizenry like that in 1940, maybe Hitler wouldn't have gone so far.

he had what, 3 medals he threw away during a protest? if he was so proud of his service when he returned, he would of never done that. oh wait those were his friends. now he's proud to be a vet and playing the hero roll which is bullshit. you cant have it both ways. i wasnt compairing nazi germany to the usa, but my example is still valid. you cant complain about something and protest againsnt and then use it on your resume as a great moment in your life. if he wasnt proud of it when he returned home, he shouldnt say he's proud of it now and hope it gets him votes.
