Quite the contrary. My point is that if you are going to question Democratic presidential candidates regarding 30-year-old circumstances leading to their employers' commendation, you should have the guts to question all recipients of those medals. The same way that candidates traditionally disclose their 1040s, but everyone --- even non-candidates --- can be audited at any time. I suspect there are many people in the Pentagon wearing ribbons they didn't earn, many of whom have been sharpening knives for Kerry since '72.
Is Kerry a shameless self-promoter? Yes. Garry Trudeau said so. 'Nuff said. So? Bush is a shameless self-promoter. Remember, he thinks he did more for human rights than Lincoln.
