I can't believe that the Republican machine would attack Kerry on his war record. I know, you right wingers will all retort back "it wasn't us, it wasn't Bush, he discredited those ads" but the fact of the matter is that those ads were funded by Republican soft money.
How hypocritical. Those unpatriotic and traitorous Republican assholes asking "well, exactly how DEEP does a wound have to be to qualify for a purple heart" whereas at that exact same time, what the f*** was Bush doing?! Flying jets over Houston to counter the impending VietCong attack on Texas? Getting drunk at night, and then getting arrested for hitting the highways of Midland under the influence.... all the while Kerry is spending that same night a continent away, in uniform, as a VOLUNTEER and not a conscript, in some mosquito-ridden bayou in Vietnam?
Bush = No Credibility, after those swiftboat ads against Kerry. Disgraceful.
Oh puhhhleeeaase!
You want to talk about Soft Money Gardner???? Which party has the 527's out in FORCE rigth now??? Which party is taking FULL advantage of surrogate attack groups?
Ever heard of The MediaFund?....MoveOn.org?......Americans Coming Together?....JointVictoryCampaign?....Need I continue?
How about the full length feature film made by a man PROVEN to distort facts and twist reality and who's self described only purpose for existence is to defeat GW?
How about a party that takes millions and millions of $'s from a radical leftist like George Soros? You know, the guy who thinks all drugs should be legal. The guys who openly prefers a socialistic form of governance over a democratic one...
I don't see John Kerry disavowing ANY of the distortions these groups are flooding the airwaves with...At least thew Bush camp is willing to disassociate itself with the Swift Boat vets. I actually think they shouldn't, but that's another discussion.
You know, if you really paid attention you'd see that the questions the Swift Boat guys have about Kerry's wounds aren't about how deep the wounds were....it was about WHO made the wounds in the first place. Their position was that at least two of the wounds happened because of his own stupidity (accidentaly self inflicted)....Medals can not be awarded for such wounds according to MILITARY REGULATIONS.
I personally don't give a sh*t about his medals or how he got them. What I care about is the fact that he's bullshitted us about what and how he did things in Vietnam and now he has the nerve to foist his service as the primary reason we should elect him....all after telling the whole world what War Criminals his fellow service men were in Vietnam. A LOT of the things he participated in when he came home from Vietnam CAUSED the disgusting and comdemnable treatment of our soldiers on thier return from the same place.
Republicans didn't bring his service into this election....JOHN KERRY DID. If you don't think he should have to defend that record, then I suggest you contact his campaign and tell them that his service so long ago should not be a made a highlight of his campaign.
Me personnally??? I'd like to see him defend his Senate voting record....that by itself is enough to get him tanked in the election. Problem is, HE KNOWS it, and will avoid his Senate record like the plague. Mark my words.
