From a Mr. French lackey, reviewing sKeRrY's book spawn, "A Call to Service", on Amazon. Eloquently poignant. Razz

Quote:
The writing is a bit clunky at times, weaving difficult ideas into long complex sentences, but we won't fault him for being intelligent. Plus, the man has better things to do with his time than to become a literary genius. I recommend reading in small chunks - maybe keep the book handy on the back of the toilet. It goes faster than you think it will.


How insightfully appropriate.

Someone at work left that trash on my key board. I opened it up to the preface and Kerry was describing the time he and McCain got to know each other. He said "in my two tours in Viet Nam." Yeah, 5 weeks on the Gridley, and 4 1/2 months the second time. That's 5 and 3/4 months. Kerry doesn't qualify for the Viet Nam Campaign Medal. You had to be there 6 months.

Aloha,
