From an AP Story on the NG Records

"Allegations of suspect conduct during the Vietnam war also have been leveled at John Kerry (news - web sites), who won three Purple Hearts, a Silver Star and a Bronze Star in Vietnam."

This implies equivalence. It isn't.

"A group sponsoring television ads challenging his wartime record contends Kerry's own gunfire caused the wound that brought his first Purple Heart. Navy records and other veterans do not support the charge. "

Hello? Does supporting testimony and official documentation mean anything? Or are all incriminating documents suspect when they go against Bush, and bogus when they support Kerry? This is the blinkerville hypothesis.
