26. Ah, more misleading, this time in the form of an LTE by someone from Veterans for Peace

RE "NO counterparts to the young Kerry at war hearing" (Page A1, April 22): Senator John Kerry should be ashamed of himself. His finest moment was in 1971 before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. If he will recall, many in 1971 said that Vietnam was a threat to the United States because of the domino theory that the Communists were coming to get us in Harvard Square. Yet Kerry justifies the continued killings, bombings, and destruction in Afghanistan by saying that Al Qaeda is coming to get us.

...

Kerry does a disservice to veterans by not inviting Iraq Veterans Against the War to testify to his hearing. He should remember his roots and his words: "How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?"


So I hallucinated seeing Corporal Reyes? Groups that lie about things really aren't helping their cause.
