I was so angry when this Representative can out and attacked Senator Kerry. As a child, I used to attend many American legion functions with my family, and I never thought they were a partisan organization. I even wrote this jackass a letter explaining Kerry,s mistake and asked that he check facts before attacking a fellow veteran.
Now I find out this guy is another chicken hawk. I wonder if her partied with Bush while other soldiers were being killed in Vietnam?

Any way, this guy should resign.

Legion official faults Kerry's war remark

CHICOPEE - Paul A. Morin, of Chicopee, who was selected national commander of the American Legion this year, said recently a pre-election, nationally publicized comment made by U.S. Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., reflected Kerry's "warped view of today's heroes" in the Iraq war.

Morin, in a prepared statement, called on Kerry to apologize for the comment. Kerry initially defended the remark as a failed joke aimed at President Bush, not the military, but subsequently did apologize.

Many critics including Morin viewed the remark as an insult to the troops in Iraq. Morin said Kerry, a combat veteran himself, was suggesting that American troops in Iraq are uneducated.

"As a constituent of Sen. Kerry, I am disappointed," Morin said. "As leader of the American Legion, I am outraged. A generation ago, Sen. Kerry slandered his comrades in Vietnam by saying they are rapists and murderers. It wasn't true then and his warped view of today's heroes isn't true now."

2. I saw those comments, this man has no credibility any longer and should

step down. It is obvious he is to patrician and biased to do a good job.
You know, other veterans should be outraged about all of this. They should speak up also. Morin, is a bad leader and a lier.

I included Morin's attacks on Kerry's war testimony. The post also contrasts the false charges that Kerry lied about his record with the fact that one of his attackers really did.
