Better yet...as a Veteran, am I allowed to question a Presidential Candidate, Will?
I have seen Kerry's type a handful of times! They pushed a Bronze Star reccomendation when they should have been put in for an ARCOM at best. Bullet to ballistic armor? Give that man a PH!

This is why, short of McCain making a serious run for the presidency, he should at the very least PUNCH BUSH IN THE FACE!

I personally have no problem with people avoiding service in Vietnam, if I were around back then, I would have tried to get out of it too.

That's EXACTLY my point. What the hell does Bush's record have to do with Kerry Reenacting war scenes?
By the way, Bush NEVER questioned Kerry's record. Kerry needs to be scrutinized as a potential leader of this nation.
What I want to know is why so many people won't even look into it, but simply point the finger at Bush. Don't you think there is something wrong with that?
Under scrutiny, Kerry's record seems "atypical." Don't you want to know who might be the next president?

Of course YOU wouldn't find anything wrong with Kerry's service...

Actually, one does not have to search very desperately to find this out. There is no hypocracy... the truth is that Kerry owns Bush on the issue of past military service, and if I were Bush's campaign manager, I would avoid this subject at all costs.

Scoob that would be cool and all, but Kerry's campaign is the one that started the mudslinging on this topic.

And I'd really like to see you walk into a guard unit and call them draft dodgers.

Please take your condesending tone and personal remarks elsewhere. Lets have a constructive debate.

OK my point is that Guard service is service. Joining the Guard and volunteering for a unit that was currently operating in Vietnam is not draft dodging. Using that term for Guard service is disrespectful to current and former Guard soldiers.
My other point is that the Bush campaign did not introduce this into the campaign. It was Kerry who brought it up. This is well documented.

You will note that it's the troops who served with Kerry who are bringing that to the table. Unlike the troops who served with Dubya who for the most part have backed him up. It's telling IMHO.
But as I said in another thread - the same military that gave medals to Kerry also gave an honorable discharge to Dubya. We accept one or we accept neither.
