Delegates to the Republican National Convention found a new way to take a jab at Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry's Vietnam service record: by sporting adhesive bandages with small purple hearts on them.
Morton Blackwell, a prominent Virginia delegate, has been handing out the heart-covered bandages to delegates, who've worn them on their chins, cheeks, the backs of their hands and other places.
Every veteran who has ever earned the Purple Heart for being wounded in action is being slapped in the face by this party, just so they can make a few cheap political points among the already-converted.
If you have a father, mother, brother, sister, spouse, friend, or casual acquaintance who has ever served in the United States Military, please be sure they see this article, so that they know what the Republican Party thinks of their sacrifice. Keep in mind as you send this article out that most of the people doing this are those who never served.
