The Unauthorized Randy “Duke” Cunningham Page

Dear Dan
Thank you for renuing my faith in Duke Cunningham. With left wingers like you shooting at him I am sure that my faith in Randall is well placed. I will support him with money and share quotes from your site to my ex-fighter crew buddies. Like Randall I dropped many, many cans of napalm in Vietnam. Wish I had one for you.

"Canisters" of napalm, not "cans."

Sigh...once again we see that when one cannot express idea's and back up what one say with objective fact, then threats of violence and retribution are sure to follow.

It's a very sad day in America when a retired Lt. Col. of the USAF, and "2 tour fighter pilot" feels it necessary to drop a "canister" of napalm on a man he has never met simply because the man posts a website that runs contrary to what he believes.

Oh, but Norm served in the military, so it's ok.

Also Norm, nice piece on how un-American Senator Kerry is and was during Vietnam.

For those of you who haven't read Norm's heavily biased and partisan piece, here is the link: http://www.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/archive.cgi?read=45367

All it really shows to me is you can only be patriotic if:
1. You served in the military
2. You didn't rat on your buddies
3. You vote Republican from then on

That about cover it Norm?

One question Norm: What prompted you to write such a piece? Where you just sitting around one day and said, "Gee wiz, that Kerry is an SOB. I guess it's my duty to set the record straight on that guy."

Let's ask a simple question:

Who is the bigger patriot? The man who serves in agreement with every mission, detail and tour he does or, conversely, the man who agrees with some but not all, but does his duty anyway, to the best of his abilities?

Dear Norm:

Seeing how misguided your renewal of faith in Duke Cunningham has been, did any of the "many, many " cans of napalm you dropped actually HIT anythng?

Just curious. And gosh, I hope you didn't give him enough of your money that you might be suspected of being a conspirator.

Norm —

Why might people be taking shots at Duke, post-Vietnam?

I would think that that would have been "ancient history" relative to your posting. Any thoughts?
