I did a search for "kerry purple heart" and got nothing of significance.

Google quotes Wikipedia as saying:
:Hibbard and Elliot have alleged, respectively, that Kerry's first Purple Heart and Silver Star were undeserved."
I don't see how this justifies creating a vote on "swift deletion" or whatever they call their proposal to let 3 admins collaborate on deleting a page.
1. There are too many admins. It would be very easy for a politically-motivated clique to abuse an "admins only" vote and eliminate political information merely because they don't want anyone to read about it.
2. The best way to deal with political bias is to LABEL IT POV and WRITE ABOUT IT. If Kerry opponents make an issue of his Purple Hearts, then include some info about this in an article, or write an article about the [[Kerry Purple Heart controversy]].
We have the ability to write neutrally on controversies. Deleting stuff that one side doesn't want mentioned, is not the solution.
By the way, this is the 2nd "delete what makes Kerry bad or Bush good" issue I've uncovered today. I see an unsettling trend.
We can write articles about Bush speeches or Swift Boat veterans' claims, without censorship. Just as we can write articles about Bush drunk driving or using privilege to evade combat or doctor's appointments, or assigning huge contracts to his VP's former company -- without censorship.
