How does this prove that he joined the Navy "with the idea he'd be on a
ship at sea somewhere and never have go to Vietnam." Odd how you
consider this article as "proof" when it doesn't even mention the concept.

That Kerry applied for a deferment to study in Paris is not in dispute.
After all, Vice President Cheney applied for (and got) several similar
deferments.



...for which Cheney has taken a lot of heat.

From who? It is occasionally mentioned in passing by some of the more
liberal press. The mainstream media doesn't mention it any more than
they mention that many of the Halliburton no-bid contracts were
overturned by the Pentagon... some for non-performance.

... Just because guys like
Cheney and Bill Clinton were lucky enough (or well-connected enough)

There you go, being a socialist agitator again... do you expect any your
supposed fellow Religious Republican Right-wingers would compare Cheney
to Clinton? You're supposed to be helping Cheney (and Bush) here!


What's truly outrageous, however, is that Kerry came back to the states and
provided propaganda for the enemy...

???

The fact that the Religious Republican Right-wingers fabricated a photo
of him standing next to Hanoi Jane makes Kerry culpable for "providing
propaganda for the enemy"?


... the same propaganda that the Vietcong
tortured our guys to obtain.

???

... For that reason, he's unfit to be called
"Commander in Chief".

In the opinion of many (including this veteran), Kerry is more fit to be
CinC than a rich well-connected frat boy who went AWOL from his cushy
Viet Nam dodging ANG post.

Don't you ever get tickled by the irony of demanding that Kerry "release
his military records" when Bush blandly announces that his are "lost"?
Or is this just more agitprop?
