Any profits, meaning they will take 99 percent as "expenses" and give a token amount to some charity. I find it strange that you mix questions about rasiing the price of oil, with questions about treason. I'm curious what kind of emotions accompany your accusations. Vehement extremist hatered? That is what shines through.

Re:
If you're wrong then you have called a courageous soldier a traitor. There is no coming back from such an error in judgement to regain your credibility, your words would mean nothing anymore, to yourself also I would imagine. I mean do you really believe what you yourself say about John Kerry? I doubt it.

Re:
I read it, all it says that there is some debate whether or not Kerry actually received the wound from enemy fire, and how he got awarded the purple heart for it.
About 3 million people violently lost their lives at the hands of other people in the war. Fact is Kerry saved more lives then most any vietnam soldier, by his political activities after the war. Mostly Vietnamese lives, but some Americans as well. The awarding of purple hearts was instrumental for that activity. What's also important is that he saved a lot of people from being any more complicit in murder as well, and I think some of his detractors might well be some of those whose innocense he kept, despite themselves.

Re: Kerry Wimped!
It was a burning hot piece of metal, clearly that guy was exaggerating to say it was less then a thornprick. It appears to me you want to start the Vietnam war again tomorrow, since you don't seem to support Kerry having helped to stop it. 3 million not enough for you?
