so Hoffman, who's been described a guy straight out of Catch-22, is pissed off at Kerry for taking his three purple hearts and leaving. So what? What's the point? That Kerry didn't want to be in Vietnam anymore? I don't think anyone's arguing that, least of all John Kerry. Hoffman's been attacking Kerry since 1971 for his opposition to the war.

As for John O'Neill, he was sicced on Kerry by Nixon (O'Neill said Nixon was the greatest man he ever met) back in the '60's to try to counteract Kerry's anti-war efforts, and he was rewarded with a clerkship under Rehnquist to start off his legal career. He's a right-wing political hack, and has never been anything but a hack.

But of course, from the conservative viewpoint this is a groundswell, rising TOTALLY ON IT'S OWN, of anti-Kerry sentiment among veterans.

Just more slime and bullshit from the right. They're counting on people not checking the source.
