This "story" was just posted today. More bullshit upon bullshit. Right-wingers are desperate. I heard on the news that the lead Democrats have over Republicans going into this election is historically the largest divide by party lines ever. Can't you just smell the desperation mixed in the the other pungent odor?
WASHINGTON - During a Vietnam-era run for Congress three decades ago, John Kerry said he opposed a volunteer Army because it would be dominated by the underprivileged, be less accountable and be more prone to "the perpetuation of war crimes."
Kerry, a decorated Vietnam veteran who turned against the war, made the observations in answers to a 1972 candidate questionnaire from a Massachusetts peace group.

The Associated Press was alerted to the historical comments by a former law enforcement official who monitored 1970s anti-war activities. snip
Kerry's spokesman, David Wade, said Wednesday the historical document needed to be viewed in the era in which it was written but that it nonetheless raised a "bedrock question in a time of war when sacrifice should be shared by all Americans."
