Why do conservative republicans lie and claim that john kerry awarded himself his Purple Hearts?

They only support the troops that agree with them. The rest are "phony soldiers" according to Rush Limbaugh.

Why do conservative republicans lie and claim that john kerry awarded himself his Purple Hearts?
Prove its a lie, I mean come on you are such an expert at lying, you have lied so much you do not know the truth, you lie about being a Vet you lie about being a FLEO, officer fluffer, come on everyone knows Kerry nominated himself for at LEAST two of those purple hearts, a senior officer to him told him reference the first incident to FORGET it and carry on forget about the scratch he had. But tell us how many purple hearts do you have brave boy, you hid in Nebraska for four years hiding under a desk tsk tsk what would you know about earning medals?
Reply:He was an officer, he faked at least 2 of them knowing that if he got 3 he could go home early. Don't let facts get in your way tho. I know how liberals hate that.
Reply:Do you know what it takes to receive a purple heart? Its not quite as easy as John Kerry wants to make us all believe.


Do your own research, you'll see what I'm talking about.
Reply:Others awarded them, reluctantly or without full knowledge of the circumstances, but John Kerry wrote up his own papers to get them, based on trivial injuries.





MANY knowledgeable people that WERE THERE stated that the injuries were self-inflicted due to Kerry's own carelessness and incompetence, including his own bullet splinter that bounced back aff a rock while he was in a panic and firing at harmless native peasants. The other soldiers knew enough to hold their fire. The splinter was removed with tweezers and the tiny injury secured with a Band-Aid.





Don't bother knocking the "Swift Boaters" who endorsed the book that reported these facts. There were MANY of them, high-ranking officers and the grunts who served in the same boat with Kerry, and MANY PAGES of the book were needed to show all of their names.
Reply:Prove us otherwise before you call us liars
Reply:Because the were pretty much paper cuts...just schrapnel. He was back on duty with a bandage.....only 1 of his injuries caused him to miss a couple days of duties....





And for those who have given me a thumbs down...these are true facts. I'm not a Kerry basher, but do your research.
Reply:John Kerry,,,, didn't he run for President and lose to George W. Bush? If that is the John Kerry in your question, I think at this point the veracity of his claims that he was wounded 4 times during combat operations in Vietnam can be explained as no more than band aid wounds that a engaged combat veteran would dismiss as being minor.
Reply:Because he reported minor injuries.





Why do libs lie and claim that Bubba was impeached for a BJ?
Reply:Real soldiers didn't report the kind of sissified injuries that he did.
