I feel Kerry had a right to protest the war but he didn't have to trash his
former comrades while doing it.

If your white, and you see a white guy beating up a black guy, do you
turn you head just becaue the guy doing the dirty deed is the same
color as you?

Substitute nationality for skin color in the previous example. Does
it change what you do?

Bad things happen in war. And just because your country sees itself
as the "good guys", doesn't mean you all are. Take any random sample
of 100 people and your bound to have a few bad apples, otherwise, our
prisons would be empty. And we sent tens of thousands to Vietnam. So
the idea that none of those tens of thousands did anything wrong is
ludicrous.

I think being an American means standing up for what's right,
regardless of who that puts in the wrong. Kerry did what he thought
was right, and I personally think that what he did took alot more
courage then simply ignoring the atrocities.
