How could Kerry throw those medals in your face? He already threw them in
the

Reflecting Pool.

Oh, wait, those were somebody *else's* medals he threw, weren't they?

At least he had some to throw. The only medals Shrub qualified
for...whoops, no
he didn't. Officers don't get Good Conduct Medals, since one assumes
they're
ossifers an' gennelmens. And he wouldn't have qualified anyway, being over
the
hill for a year.

I just take offense to someone going over there with what appears to be the
express purpose of getting three purple hearts, then getting the hell out of
there so he could get his political career going stateside. I would think
most vets wouldn't even bother trying to get a purple heart from an injury
treated by tweezers and a band-aid.
