good one.
I expect that if one of our Navy cooks, serving food to our pilots (who are engaging the enemy in Iraq) runs for president one day, spinning how he "fought IN violent Iraq" (as opposed to "being in the Iraq war") that he get the same treatment that Kerry is getting here.
No offence to Navy cooks out there. . . just don't go bragging, and giving the impression that you were
immersed in the violence of directly engaging the enemy. That only provides a dis-service to the real risk-takers.
There is a significant difference .. . especially when that Presidentail Nominee is using his "war experience" as a central part of his resume.
