::Marvelous.  So you have no problem with the edit.  Lord knows why it took you a few days to say as much, or why you felt the need to drag Noam Chomsky, Virginia Tech, and Mary Cheney into it, but thats as may be and I suppose its my fault for not predicting this kind of behavior here.  I'll be making the change later. when I have more time.  --[[User:RexMundane|RexMundane]] 17:28, 23 April 2007 (EDT)

First, I'm going to disagree with RexMundane's beliefs on Kerry.  I don't think Rex was ever in uniform in the service of his country at all, and if he was, he would know the basic difference between "soldiers" and "sailors", of which Kerry was one.  Second, he has no idea of the basic requirements for the awarding of the Purple Heart Medal, and he has tended to ignore the fact that Kerry's military documentation on this medal was the very ones he attempted to hide from the general public.  A Purple Heart is not a prize to be won at the fair; it is the only military decoration that NO ONE WANTS TO GET, and John Kerry is the only man on record in the history of the Armed Forces to have actively campaigned to get one.

Then there's the third reason.  In one of the Swift Boat adds against Kerry there is shown everyone involved; many of them are highly-decorated, and one wears the Medal of Honor.  Are they to be maligned simply because they have had an experience with an incompetant man and did not want him leading the military as Commander-in-Chief?  One of these individuals is retired Captain George M. Elliot, who not only was Kerry's commanding officer at PCB-11, but was my commanding officer onboard USS ''Samuel Gompers'', and I know him personally.  I will take Elliot's word over Kerry's any day.

And yes, I'm going to change this article. [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 01:21, 29 June 2007 (EDT)
