Well, there's at least one redeeming quality.

To go along with the Silver Star, the Bronze Star and three Purple

Hearts.

And all in a war he was opposed to. I find that somewhat redeeming.

Except ther is no silver star.

Are you saying there's no such thing as a Silver Star, or that Kerry
never
got one? In both cases you'd be wrong.


Kerrey was put in for a silver star and awarded bronze.

According to CNN (and numerous other sources), Kerry has been awarded both
distinctions:
"It was in 1971 that Kerry, then 27, appeared before the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee to speak out against U.S. policy in Vietnam.

My mistake then.

Kerry sounds a lot like Davis.
