		<description>How dare you question their patriotism!! 

They certainly did a good job of filtering out the Kerry admissions on Apocalypse Cambodia and his Purple Hearts.</description>

		<description>Bravo Professor Bainbridge, and an incredulous gape in the direction of the good David Shaw.  Who promoted him Minister of Truth?  The control of public opinion by selective exclusions of news items is over, and propagandists such as Shaw might well apply for honest jobs outside the communications industry.</description>

		<description>The US Navy and the pentagon have launched an investigation into Kerrys medals because the Navy don't issue a bronze star or a silver star with a combat (V) for valor?  Yet Kerry has them?  And clerical errors do happen but each officer is responsible for making sure their records are correct and that any mistakes are reported to the Navy in order to make those corrections.  30 yrs and Kerry never said anything, you think maybe he didn't pay attention?  Plus the citation for the his silver star was re-issued to him 3 times and each time the the praise for him is more embellished and there are more words than on the previous one?  And all of this is straight from Kerry's website.  When you read "Unfit For Command" and then Kerry's autobiograhpy "Tour Of Duty", it becomes clear that Kerry has a problem.

His own biographer said basically "If Kerrys medals are investigated, it'll probably destroy his campaign"?  If none of this is true, why would David Brinkley say such a statement?

Too many people jump on the liberal bandwagon and start parroting the partys bs before looking at what the charges are.  Anyone who's intellectually honest will see the problem?  But the MSM and most Kerry supporters refuse to look.
Kerry is a fraud and if it hadn't been for internet bloggers who researched charges claimed by the Swift Boat Vets , he probably would've been able to get away with his false war heroism, because the MSM had already said they'd ignore the story.  Why not, they'd been doing that for the democratic party since at least Vietnam.  But now they've been exposed and because they continue to play offense and defense for Kerry, their credibility is screwed with half of the country.  But next were going to target the MSM's advertisers.  Because they have been force feeding us their leftist ideological views for years.  I hope we cause many of them to lose their jobs.</description>

		<description>In fairness to the LA Times, they did not filter out the Christmas in Cambodia story; rather they slipped it into the 72nd paragraph of a story on the Swiftees.</description>

		<description>"Navy don't issue a bronze star or a silver star with a combat (V) for valor? Yet Kerry has them?"

The Bronze Star is issued with a "valor device" ... consider this a homework assignment; the Silver Star, like the Congressional Medal of Honor, is a commendation for valor by its definition. Reportedly there have been sightings and possibly photographs of Kerry wearing his Silver Star with a valor device attached. Admiral Boorda was reputed to have taken his own life (perhaps not the only reason) shortly after being informed that he was not entitled to wear the "V" on his Bronze Star.</description>
