" " I signed that letter because I , too felt a deep sense of betrayal that someone who took the same oath of loyalty as I did as an officer in the United States Navy would abandon his group here ( points to group photo ) to join this group here ( points to VVAW protest photo ) , and come home and attempt to rally the American public against the effort that this group was so valiantly pursuing . Statements made in two articles that appeared in the Observer-Reporter , the newspaper from the nearby town of Washington , Pennsylvania , after the ' front porch ' meeting support the e-mail 's claim of the street 's being closed all night to traffic : " The 200 block of West College was shut down for the visit " and " On Sunday morning , the Rhomes and Kerry campaign workers went door-to-door on the street , alerting neighbors of Kerry 's upcoming visit .

In this I see a potential echo to the " John Kerry ate my pizza " story — did Senator Kerry chow down on the pizza knowing it was meant for the pilots , or did he operate under the belief that it had been thoughtfully supplied as a snack for him , a visiting dignitary ? Senators and Representatives might vote against a defense appropriations bill for any numbers of reasons — because they object to the presence or absence of a particular item , because they feel that the government is proposing to spend too much or too little money on defense , or anything in-between .
