Connecticut and Vietnam

From The New York Sun, an editorial about Connecticut senate candidate Blumenthal: Connecticut and Vietnam.
What's intriguing to me is the Sun's recognition of, well, something I never thought of before, the politicians--long term liberals such as Blumenthal, who fought against American intervention in Vietnam but now find it necessary to talk about their "service" during that time.
Fortunately, politicians of all stripes have woken up to the fact that Vietnam vets, and now those coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan, are in need of much counseling and support.
