When you serve in wartime and put your ass on the line for me I will take you somewhat seriously, since you haven't served one day with your ass in live combat you are just a chicken hawk like your leader.

I am not a Kerry fan, there were not nose plugs strong enough to keep the stench from my nose when I voted for him, but the stench coming from GWs name on the same ballot was even worse. At least Kerry served his tours in Vietnam, all you do is pounce on someone for misspeaking, which Bush has done so many times they have entire libraries filled with his idiocy.


Now all I have to say for this post is Mission Accomplished. Ooops, wrong, nothing has been accomplished in Iraq but a complete boondoggle. I will be a very happy camper when GW has to wipe his ass off the floor when the democrats sweep congress next week, and if they don't.. no biggie, I am an independent that does not think much of either party anyways

Kerry's words are the best evidence yet of an Illuminati organized political system. How else can you explain a leading Democrat providing the best "October Surprise"?

Let's see, he's got the American Legion (http://www.breitbart.com/news/2006/10/31/204-10312006.html), Democratic Congressman (http://abcnews.go.com/WNT/story?id=2619383&page=1), mothers of soldiers from Boston (http://www.thebostonchannel.com/news/10204420/detail.html), and every political pundit in the US pointing to the Democratic party as the party who believes you must be stupid to be in the military.

And what a GREAT time for him to be assertive! (http://apnews.myway.com/article/20061031/D8L3SB884.html) Blaming the White House for his stupidity is as amazing as him pointing to President Bush's college records when it turns out he had lower scores. Amazing. How hard is it to do what he and his party want the President to do; say he made a mistake? Of course now he's trying to explain. Calling the White House full of "policial hacks". Well, some of us, even if we disagree maintain respect for the office and what it represents. Disrespect of that nature gets more "old folk" pissed and out of the home. Basically the feathers are out of the pillow and scattered. Good luck trying to repack them in the case.

What was a bad idea for a joke is now mobilizing millions to vote against change. Unfortunately most of the voting population won't ever know that was the case.

What about poor Phil Angelides? He may get less votes in the general election than he got in the primary. By my philosophy of voting anyone in office out, I have to vote for him! I guess it will be me, his wife, and him. But I hear Arnold's working on his wife.

Another 4 years of Arnold in CA.

Good news for the Democrats, John Kerry's 2008 re-run is officially over.

    It was a stupid comment and his refusal to apologize just makes it worse. 

    I also resent the "limosine trash" remark.

Too bad it's also often-times true.
How many men came back in body bags from Vietnam with PhD's in their pockets?
The military sends recruiters to shopping malls and places where kids with nothing but time on their hands hang out. They entice them with the idea of "money for college"...and then turn around and send them off to a foreign land to die for a questionable cause.
For some kids, the military offers the only way out of a dead-end, minimum wage situation.
Don't think for a second that military recruiters don't use that to their advantage. They are salesmen who just happen to work for the armed forces.

 
Not.  I spent several years getting very up close and personal with nuclear weapons after going to school for 6 months, courtesy U.S. Army.  While I wasn't being shot at, those several years up close and tinkering with fissile material and a half ton of high explosives almost daily were not risk free in any context.  But that 6 months and several years also became part of a college degree which was paid for courtesy U.S. taxpayers.  The experience not only launched me into a splendid career but remains on my resume today and is readily recognized for its value.

One thing about the service - every member gets equal treatment one way or the other.  Some get lucky while some get un-lucky but all under the same circumstances of chance.

In 1999, The New Yorker published a transcript indicating that Bush had received a cumulative score of 77 for his first three years at Yale and a roughly similar average under a non-numerical rating system during his senior year.
Kerry authorizes release of his full military and medical records. A7.
Kerry, who graduated two years before Bush, got a cumulative 76 for his four years, according to a transcript that Kerry sent to the Navy when he was applying for officer training school. He received four D's in his freshman year out of 10 courses, but improved his average in later years.
