A very moving piece, thanks for sharing SNDY. Can't wait for this madness to get over. John Kerry may have screwed up many things in his career but I am reminded of the famous question he posed before Congress in the 70s: "We are asking Americans to think about that because how do you ask a man to be the last man to die in Vietnam? How do you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake? " If the polls are to be believed, many people, even those who would never vote for him, probably agree with Kerry on this.
