He even let me put up a huge Coakley sign on our fence when in the past the local Dem Party leaders have
asked him if they could put up signs for other candidates and he ALWAYS told them NO. (We are in a high traffic
viewing area)

He mentioned something about Brown's beady eyes resembling W's

5. isn't there only 3 choices?

11. Was he in VVAW?
"And weren't there some revolutionary communists in Vietnam Veterans Against the War at some point?"

And what is your point? VVAW was anti-communist, and against the continuation of an ill conceived war... much like the Iraq mess that Bush/Cheney got us into.

Just because there may have been a few extremist around the fringes does not mean all of us who served in Vietnam and VVAW were communists. Guilt by association is not a valid argument.
