Remember in the 2004 campaign when the band aids were put over purple heart medals? Cheney wore one of those as well as many of the delegates at the convention. They stood for Kerry's war record in Viet Nam as advertised by Swift Boat Veterans for truth.

Well if you don't remember, it happened.

People are being (Dan) rather selective when it comes to pointing fingers of derision at men who wear the uniform.


I see no reason to automatically bestow respect and hero worship on Petraeus.
I will remind everyone that respect is earned and not something that is bestowed by a Republican war profiteer.
