It's become so petty it's almost pathetic in a way as I listen to these
things. You know every — (Rep.) Chaka (Fattah) was telling me a minute
ago he keeps hearing these commentators, Republicans all of them,
saying "well John Kerry was only in Vietnam for four months blah blah
blah." Well, I was there for longer than that number one. Number two, I
served two tours. Number three, they thought enough of my service to
make me an aide to an admiral. And the Navy 35 years ago made the
awards that I made through the normal process that they make. And I'm
proud of them and I'm proud of my service and I'm proud that I stood up
against the war when I came home because it was the right thing to do.
I've been 35 years now involved in foreign policy one way or the other.
From being at the tip of the spear when leaders made bad decisions to
trying to oppose it when I came home as an act of conscience. And you
can judge my character incidentally by that. Because when the times of
moral crisis existed in this country I wasn't taking care of myself, I was
taking care of public policy. I was taking care of things that made a
difference to the life of this nation. You may not have agreed with me but
I stood up and was counted and that's the kind of president I'm gonna be.
