John Kerry barely waited to leave the Vietnam War Memorial, before declaring to an audience in Virginia that Bush "has not learned the lesson" of Vietnam. Of course the lesson was that if America is going to undertake a just war against an evil empire, they should go in to win it. Seems to me Bush has learned that lesson.
Why will no one call Kerry on this? He is politicizing tragedy and remembrance for political ends. If Bush were to do it, the press would be all over him. This Memorial Day, remember the countless men and women who gave their lives to make and keep this country free. Remember especially, in your prayers, the men and women who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan so that not just we, but others in this world, could live in freedom. "Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."
