Since Kerry voted to go also based on the same info I guess he lied too.


I don't understand this whole line of circular reasoning... Bush &
Cheney lied to Congress. Kerry (and a lot of other people) fell for the
lies, not having full access to better intel themselves and giving the
benefit of the doubt to President Bush (which is as it should be).


When I worked in a union shop we voted to strike every year when contract
negotiations began. Now none of us wanted to strike but we wanted the "other
side" (management) to believe we would if necessary. Kerry and many others
did the same to hand Bush a weapon in bargaining with Saddam. Had our union
officials put us on strike without pay for no better reasons than Bush had
to attack Saddam we'd have put them on the street next election. That's
what I hope happens to Bush.

That's where you are the idiot, Bubbles. Bush won't attack Kerry's military
record because he is the Commander in Chief, and it does not portend well
for the highest ranking officer in the US military to upend servicemen for
discrepancies in their service records. Have you even once heard Bush
berate an individual soldier for anything? I've heard nothing but praise
from him for the troops, past and present.

That is perhaps one of the greatest reasons why Bush would be a far superior
CiC compared with Kerry, who has been uniformly disrespectful of other
servicemen, virtually from the time he set foot back in the US after his
"tour of duty" in Vietnam.

Give it up, Loco. He can't defend his man, so he attacks Bush. Oddly
enough this whole election is about that: either one is for Bush or against
him. No one seems to give a **** about John Kerry.

Gee Max, glad you finally woke up! I don't know a soul who actually LIKES
Kerry but enough of us are sick enough of Bush to elect Kerry despite that.
That's why attacking Kerry never gets Bush any votes.

I wish the Democrats had put up almost anybody except Kerry but that's
immaterial. If we care for America, we gotta get rid of Bush before he
destroys her!

Except that BushCo apparently used uncorroborated intelligence
information. For example, Powell quoted British Intelligence during
his UN testimony, but it turns out the original report was written by
a grad student in Monterey. BushCo LIED.

No Max, he was critical of a Govt that placed it's military in a
situation where they were ordered to use methods that guaranteed
extremely high civilian casualties and praised those who killed the
most.


Wrong. He impugned the troops for purported atrocities (Winter Soldier),
some of which were accurate, many of which weren't. You are correct in that
he maligned the military hierarchy and the government for the methods you
describe, but he also maligned the troops themselves, and that is not
something one who wishes to be CiC should ever do.

Question: what percentage of the personnel in the US military will respect
Commander in Chief Kerry? Clinton was despised by over 90% of them; Kerry
will be equally despised, or moreso.

Clinton was not dispised by 90% or anything close to that. That's pure
