See: http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2004/8/5/183220.shtml Further, he went to Europe while still an officer in the Navy to meet with the North Vietnamese. This certainly seems like "aid" and "comfort" to me. We may disagree on many things, but nothing will convince me that he was anything but traitorous. Further, I see no reason to descend to the levels of profanity that some on this group seem to find it necessary to do. I was taught that the use of profanity often means that the person doesn't have the intelligence, the vocabulary, or the education to use the language properly. This has been born out in my experience.... Regards... Tom
