On the campaign front, John Kerry’s service in Vietnam remained the top story in the presidential race over the weekend. On Friday, Kerry filed an FEC complaint alleging that a group of Vietnam veterans who have attacked his military were an illegal front group for the Bush campaign. Meanwhile an editor at the Chicago Tribune who served with Kerry 33 years ago came public to defend Kerry’s record in Vietnam. And Former Republican Senator Bob Dole joined in the fray as well. He called on Kerry to apologize for once testifying that atrocities were committed in Vietnam and he accused Kerry of receiving an early exit from combat for suffering “superficial wounds.”
