C'mon Martlet. It's common knowledge Dubya blew off the military when it wasn't "convienient". Admit it.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

I don't see any rebuttal, only more dancing.

Rebuttal?  You haven't given anything to rebut.  Heck, you haven't even addressed my original statement.  You just made a fool of yourself and started parroting.

Bush left the service when it was no longer convienient for him. Working a political campaign was more important. Got a straight up answer or just dance some more?

Some more?  I haven't danced at all.

Kerry left the service when it was no longer convenient for him.  That isn't on the list.  Why?  It's a bogus biased list.

My list, on the other hand, is accurate.

Well, until the President of the US gets direct control over your armed forces, I'd guess you better ask your own politicians.

I'm suprised you hadn't figured that out.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

No defence?  What am I supposed to be defending?  If you'd like to start a completely independent discussion, be my guest.  You've already shown yourself to be a fool in this one.

If you'd like to jump into the middle of this discussion, which you obviously do, then I suggest you go back and start at the beginning to get caught up.

You aren't even on topic.

Or don't, I don't care.  I'm just trying to save you further embarrassment.

let's just start with the first name on the list.

In the list cited, Bush is put in the "bad service/didn't serve column for leaving the service early.  Kerry isn't.


Maybe because Kerry served more than a full tour in Vietnam? Is that what you consider leaving the service early?

Now, let's get back to you establishing the relevance. [/B]


The relevance is in Zulu7's thread about censorship that was deleted. Please read the original post in this thread.

You alluded to inaccuracies in that list earlier. What are they? Or is it accurate?
