The difference is there are people who actually SAW Kerry in Vietnam. People actually SAW Kerry engage the enemy. People actually SAW Kerry's wounds from ENEMY fire.
Yes, there is irony. A vet criticizing another vet for doing his duty in wartime.
BTW whats on the menu beside potatoes and crow, Chesty?
reguardless he left after 5 months after recieveing 3 PHs scrathes from combat that he probably put himself in for.
THEN he had the balls to come home and lie befor congress about attrocities "HE HIMSELF COMMITED" then later recanted. His recorded testimony was played for POWs still sitting in the Hanoi Hilton for psycological punishment.
he hung out with the same people that would spit on me for my uniform and referr to me as a "baby killer" just because I stand a post.
so reguardless of his service in nam I see him as a disgrace. He disgraced himself and EVERY vetran past present and future.
Protest the war...sure go ahead.
Betray your fellow servicemen...WHO ARE FINISHING THEIR WHOLE TOURS (if they are lucky enough)...and you are a disgrace
dont confuse me with a major BUSH fan. I voted Mcain last rep. primaries. I see BUSH as the lesser of two evils. BUT at least bush sticks to his principles and doesnt need a gallop poll to decide an opinion on the subject.
1. if Kerry were republican candidate we wouldnt be hearing the end of how great his military record was.
2. He came home and he challenged what he thought was wrong. He saw good men dying for the wrong reasons and he did his best to stop it. Has Bush* ever done anything that wasn't in his self interest?
you mean automatically flip flopping overnight to hop on the protester band wagon to help further your political carrer isnt self serving? OH I forgot he shot VC so he has a right to say whatever he wants.
3. There has never been any question that Kerry served his time, did not desert, and was decorated for his service.
he never finished his services. his wounds required a little bactine and a snoopy bandaid and he used those to get out early. DO YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE MILITARY officers put themselves in for stupid medals all the time.
4. WHat if? Are you saying that Kerry left Vietnam without orders?
did you ever see any document that bush ever missed any type of role call? reguardless he left early while real GIs were getting wounded and killed. Not only that but then went home and drove a knife in there back by spitting on them
5. Bush* deserves the criticism because he was pro-vietnam war. In other words he supported the war but just not to the extent that his bellybutton was on the front line.
i've never heard this befor. Did you know not everyone served in vietnam???????? our last president didnt!
Irony doesnt begin to cover it. Its straight up hypocrisy by the RW. Denigrating Bush* record we are warned not to belittle the national guard, but the RW jumps on Kerry and Bush* isnt warning them that they are insulting the Navy!
"the navy deserves to be insulted at any and all oportunities" -Marine training manul Pg 65 para 5
JK on that.....I sitll find it ironic that the Dems kick and scream for bush's records then shut up when they get them. THEN when we ask kerry for the same its all HE"S A WAR HERO LEAVE HIM ALONE
the same hippies that protested the war to begin with are critisizing bush for not going?????i still dont get it
