If we had listen to Obama we would have defeated them but While we
were distracted in Iraq, a counrty that was no threat to us they grew
stronger.And what is this about sending us candidates? They did not
send the enemy collaborator McCain to us he crawled out of the slime.
Dear Senator McCain
I too am a Vietnam Veteran and I like more than 50 million Americans
watched your heroic story and how you came to be the man you are
today. There is no question of your courage under fire nor your
unbelievable endurance. I watched with awe when you told of how in
spite of knowing that you would be beaten you still would not
sacrifice your Honor by being released ahead of others who had been
there longer. Most of those who have never served under fire do not
understand the need for Honor in our fighting forces. Honor is the
glue that binds us one to another that makes us look out for each
other. Without a Code of Honor it would be everyone for themselves.
Without Honor our military would fall into anarchy. When one member
violates the Military Code of Conduct we all suffer. That is why the
code says that prisoners must be released in the same order as
captured.
I cried when you told of being broken by the brutal beating. And when
you told of how the prisoner in the next cell forgave you and said
that no one of us can do it alone. And like 50 million other
Americans I forgave you too. It must have been an awful beating to get
you to violate that same Code of Honor you took the beating for. But I
did not hear you admit that you signed a confession saying that we,
our troops were “black criminals” and targeted civilians. The same
Code of Honor makes it wrong to take an early release also forbids us
from signing anything against America and our fighting troops.
We all know that the Vietnam war was not lost on the battlefields and
bases of Vietnam but in the streets of America. How many new recruits
do you think joined William Ayers' Weather Underground when the news
reported that a Naval Pilot, the son of the Admiral in charge of the
entire SEA fleets said that we targeted schools and hospital? While
8,000,000 of us came home to the scorn of disdain of the nation in
part because of you. Did you ever ask yourself if you should apologize
to those of us who felt pain of your dishonorable act? While You came
home as a hero the bus the rest of us came home to cries of “Murders”.
When I arrived from 18 months fighting for my country hundreds of
angry communist lead protesters rushed our bus. I tried to convince my
wife returning home with me that they were just glad we are home. But
even Hien, whose english was poor knew what FU and the middle finger
meant.
Without Honor our military will deteriorate and victory will elude
us. There is no one promise that we make when we swear to death before
dishonor more important than another. How can You expect our brave
troops to follow you into battle knowing that when it came to where
the rubber hit the road you traded honor for life. The Code of Honor
begins with, “I am an American fighting man I am prepared to give my
life for my country”. Many have called me cruel for even bring this
up. They say you deserve our honor for what You went through. You and
I know that honor is doing the right thing for the right reason
regardless of personal pain.
Your friend was not totally right when he said that no one could
stand alone because there is a time when s/he has listened to the
generals, admirals and advisers the Commander in Chief must stand
alone.
