    His opponent’s service was literally draft dodging. For the war Kerry was honored and injured in. We’re not talking about someone with a better service record dismissing some lesser record as insubstantial.

    That people were making fun of an actual combat injury, regardless of whether his opponent did some air drills back at home, proves that military service isn’t some sacred trait. And John Kerry didn’t just serve, he was an actual war hero who saved people’s lives and took a bullet in the process. Nothing either Kelly or Vance has done remotely compares to that and he was eviscerated for the very thing that’s supposed to be such a gotcha for the Republicans.
