It's funny that the only boat to report heavy enemy fire when Kerry got his Silver Star was Kerry's boat. The other boats all just reported that a boat hit a mine, and there was no enemy fire, hence his Silver Star was not earned as there has to be enemy fire. Think about it, why would Kerry lie back then(we all know that answer), but why would all the other boats lie about being under enemy fire at the time? They wouldn't! Kerry did not earn the Silver Star, he wrote up a false report much as Frank Burns got his purple Heart for getting an egg fragment in his eye while peeling a hard boiled egg.

"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion . . . Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." ~John Adams
