I will take the position that John Kerry earned all his medals honorably and fairly or not.

I would also like to discuss whether or not the Swift Boat Veterans engaged in slander or not.

At the end I would appreciate a critique by as many DP'ers on both sides of the issue and a ruling as to who they believe carried the day for their side.
