I'm sorry, but the complete and utter disrespect being shown to Veterens by Republicans (you included, Starhawk) is disgusting.
Regardless of the injury, how it happend, where it happened, or how often it happend, at least he had the balls to volunteer. What he saw in Vietnam horrified him (and many others), and because of that he spoke out. Until you've walked a mile in that man's shoes, you are in NO position to question, degrade, or insult his Service.
My Grandfather served over 2 Years overseas during World War II, and if I ever degraded someone's Service the way you and the Republican's are (ie: those stupid purple heart bandaids) I would fully expect him to have taken out his WWII pistol out of storage and shoot me dead.
Republicans... I've never seen a more disrespectful and disgusting group of people since a dumb *** KKK supporter tried to march in Ottawa.
