re: #60 HappyWarrior

Nothing makes me happier than seeing the guy (Kerry) whose military record they dragged through the mud becoming Secretary of State. Kerry may never become president but he’s not going to go down in history as an utter failure who made one of the biggest foreign policy blunders by an American president.

Kerry served at NSAD Binh Thuy, (then) RVN. I served with the Navy’s riverine forces there in ‘71-‘72. When I saw the Republicans mocking his service I fully realized just how much things had changed for the worse. It occurred to me then that they’d developed the habit of painting themselves into corners, getting angry about that, and then blaming anyone or anything but themselves. They haven’t stopped. I doubt that they will in my lifetime.
