Edit: btw. learn to post a link properly.

Sorry I confused you with the link problems.

I was just showing a different point of view as to a candidates history. Do with it what you like. If it disagrees with your preconceived notions, you are free to disregard.

From a classic T-shirt back in the days of Watergate (if you can remember back to that election then the joke is more apparent):

"*Expletive Deleted* you. I'm from Boston."

I doubt Bush or Chaney are much looking forward to the debates. I'd say why, but then I'd get called the L-word.

It's a bit funny to see how interested some people are about Kerry's service records in Vietnam but no'one of those are interested to talk about Bush's "records"...

oh well

bush isnt making being a fighter pilot a reason to reelect him. kerry is saying that his heroic deeds in vn make him more fit to be cic. your comment about bushs "records" show what a robot you are. no controversy to anyone who actually bothered to check. but who am i to take away your conspiracys?

Course not. Bush is not a combat veteran where as Kerry is. You can bicker all you want about his medals and accuse his superiors of giving them away but its hard to refute his 15 kills of the enemy. I'll tell you one thing, if the Airforce spent all that time training me to fly jets, I can guarantee you I would go out of my way to make sure I saw some action.

MrCoffee,
He has more then the one kill of the wounded VC on the beach?

MrCoffee · « **Reply #98 on:** August 02, 2004, 07:08:05 PM »

I read somewhere that his official military record shows 15 confirmed enemy kills.

Those events and facts were never proven according to what I have read. I need to research that more because I dont know enough about that. Anybody?

Kerry is the real deal as war hero. I have read all of his service records, and he did the deal. That doesn't mean anything else, there are heros in war that rot in jail in peace, all the way up to being hero's throughout life. Kerry's problem is not even that he opposed the war, it is just the manner in which he did so (for me).

He is a true-blue Vietnam War Hero, though, don't disrespect him in that matter.

No. My only combat experience is video games.
