John Kerry, who is rumored to have served in Vietnam, sent an email to
sup****ters over the weekend with a holiday message:
A thought as we head into what I hope will be a great Memorial
Day Weekend for you and your family: put aside the partisan
politics, and on this solemn holiday, no matter what we think
of this war policy in Iraq, let's keep the men and women who
serve our country in our hearts and in our prayers every day.
Two rhetorical questions:
First, what kind of party does Kerry belong to that he thinks there is a
contradiction between "partisan politics" and keeping servicemen in his
prayers?
Second, what exactly does Kerry mean by "put aside the partisan politics"?
His email actually answers the second question:
And when you reflect on the meaning of service and sacrifice
and love of country, consider the young veteran who will give
our Democratic radio address this weekend--John Boccieri. John's
an Iraq War veteran running for Congress in Ohio, and he summons
all our citizens to keep our promise to our veterans. You can
listen on the radio this weekend, or go to his site and listen
to it now.
My fellow Americans, let us put partisan politics aside so that we can all
join together and listen to a partisan radio address!
