I totally agree Dawn, I find the hypocrisy about these two events absolutely disgusting.DawnCt1 said:Obviously we know more about Dick Cheney shooting his friend than we will ever know about John Kerry shooting the Vietnamese kid in the back.
So what if Kerry volunteered to go to Vietnam. The fact that Kerry was awarded a Silver Star for gallantry only proves how our government is unfairly biased towards people who exhibit signs of honor, bravery and self-sacrifice in times of war.
What about all the men who didnt join Kerry, stayed safely at home and let others do the fighting for them. When do they get their medals? You heard the Vice-President on Fox last night. It wasnt easy for him to shoot an old man in the face. So wheres his Silver Star?
I just hope Bush doesnt kowtow to the liberals on this issue. Cheney deserves some recognition for what he accomplished in Texas.
And for all you Kerry-lovers, dont even think of complaining. If Kerry wanted the kind of respect we reserve for true heroes like Dick Cheney, he too would have dodged service in the 60s and shot an innocent man in the face instead. When will those liberals ever learn?
