33. What utter nonsense. They'll be apologizing to Max Cleland, decorated war veteran and triple amputee

for the despicable false smears they spread about that war hero.

And John Kerry, another veteran who was smeared and attacked and had his war record questioned by them.

And Gen. Clark

And WW11 War Hero, Sen McGovern, who was attacked with some of the vilest smears.

Not only did they personally attack all these war veterans, they attacked their Military Records.
