Max Cleland talks about his government career and his tough reelection campaign. His memoir Heart of a Patriot: How I Found the Courage to Survive Vietnam, Walter Reed and Karl Rove is about the joy he gained serving his country, no matter the cost, and how he recovered from the wounds of war and politics.
How anybody can read about his story and not cry is beyond me.

It's a sad testament to the morality of this country that the news media, the Democratic party and the Republican party sat back and allowed this veteran to be savaged by Karl Rove, a twisted psychopath, on behalf of his employer, the draft dodger George Bush .
