Like Kat, i respect Kerry's service and respect his right to protest a war that he felt was wrong after the fact. But his ability to lead a swift boat 20+ years ago does not have much bearing (to me) to how he may be able to lead a country. Same with Bush's record. What can they do for the country now? |
I agree that whether or not Bush was a good pilot is irrelevant. But, to me, whether or not he skipped out on service he had sworn to do, used influence from above to cover it up and then lied about it does say a lot about what kind of person he is and what kind leader he might be. |
I didn't go through all 7 pages to get here but really, CB, would you vote for him even if he had an impeccable record? Aren't you already a Kerry supporter???

Do I win a prize for guessing how long this would go on? Perhaps ... a bottle of Chimay?

Given his stance on the issues, no, I wouldn't vote for him, but there are others who haven't made up their mind and I think that whether or not Bush fufilled his sworn duty and/or whether or not he lied about it should should be considered.

I be more inclined to think he drinks peach wine coolers.... |
With his pinky sticking up???  |
I guess the real question should be, does anyone over 18 drink Busch beer? |
My ex brother in law does  |
My current brother in law does. |
You shouldn't knock the Busch Beer around the native St. Louisan.

JFK and the dems are making both of their records an issue. JFK constantly brings it up and wears it on his sleeve.
I deeply deeply respect JFK's service he served honorably and admirably.
His record as an elected official is disgraceful to me.

at least Mega we can discuss voting records that are public record. You are right we can agree to disagree. But I wish they would talk about issues more. I for one am sick of this military stuff.

Amen brother, that is what I said on page 1. Let's talk the issue for the future not the past.
