Jason, I am going to respectfully disagree with you. Before you start siding with a lying poop dispenser like Bill O'Reilly, you should call your therapist or your priest.  This winner of phantom Peabody Awards has no credibility, and you know it.
To equate invoking 9/11 with bringing up Kerry's Vietnam record is beyond silly. To be sure, I think Kerry has way overplayed that Vietnam hand, but for different reasons. But what O'Reilly and you seem to be trying to do is to equate both men's actions. More fair would be to equate Bush's actions during Vietnam with Kerry's, if you want to go there. But to say that a president who squandered the good will of the world toward Americans in this time of crisis, got us into unnecessary conflicts and made some rather questionable, if not suspicious, moves in the aftermath of 9/11 is OK because Kerry is bringing up his Vietnam record is positively nonsensical.
Refer back to my earlier post on this. There are so many questions surrounding Bush's response to 9/11 and his failure to heed the warnings of the intelligence community before the disaster that one has to wonder just what kind of reality he and his minions are living in. I mean, how stupid is it to invoke 9/11 when you know within hours the families of the victims are going to be reacting in the press? When you know that the families are extremely disillusioned with the way the administration has handled the investigation and its callous disregard for the truth surrounding the tragedy?
I still want to know why the bin Laden family was allowed to fly out of the US when American citizens caught away from home when 9/11 happened were prevented from flying home to their families at a time when being with your family was about the only comfort for many of us. Don't you?

You just saved me a whole lot of typing. Thanks!
BTW Bush is pulling the 9/11 ads. The survivors and their families were outraged by them, as they should be.
