Well, since most of the troops who've gone to war in Iraq are not
"enlisted men and veterans" I'd venture a guess that Bush will lose big time among active troops. Second, I'd also venture a guess that veterans would probably cotton to Kerry before Bush. Kerry went to war and fought gallantly while Bush enjoyed his exclusive status as a political scion. I expect most veterans can feel that in their bones. NOT THIS VETERAN!!!!!!!! I am absolutely 100%,dyed-in-the-wool, Pro-Bush, all the way!!!!! You want to talk to two of my brothers-in-law? They were over in Vietnam and fought, survived, and came home. There were countless stories going around among all the services. I can tell you this... Kerry is *DESPISED* by Vietnam vets!! Like I told good ol' Harry... Kerry will loose, and Bush will be in for a 2nd term. Then, the "queen bee" Hil-LIAR-y Clinton will make a run for POTUS in '08. Butch Ammon |

"enlisted men and veterans" I'd venture a guess that Bush will lose big time among active troops. 70% of the troops are enlisted and when the come back from Iraq they are veterans. Second, I'd also venture a guess that veterans would probably cotton to Kerry before Bush. Kerry went to war and fought gallantly while Bush enjoyed his exclusive status as a political scion. Why would veterans "cotton" to Kerry? I expect most veterans can feel that in their bones. Huh? |

Kerry is *DESPISED* by Vietnam vets!! Yeah, especially the thousands of them who support his candidacy. |

Yeah, regardless of what is good for the economy, the environment, the joblessness, and the country as a whole. Again, the republicans just can NOT think anything but Bush, those blinders, you know. Actually, if this NG is any indication, it is the liberals who show intolerance for anyone disagreeing with their liberal views. Many have also stated that they hope the economy goes into the crapper just before the elections and have vowed to vote for anyone else but Bush, apparently regardless of their qualifications. On the other hand, I have found several conservatives in this NG who have admitted they have problems with some of Bush's actions. I think that you often paint with too broad a brush basskisser. |

One of the resident Bush cheerleaders, John H, claimed "Bush did a superb job of providing leadership to the country during a time when panic could have reigned supreme." Bush is commander in Chief, but in a very dark day for this nation, he turned into commander in Chicken. John H's claims about how Bush acted are outlandish. So you say it's worse if the victims say it's worse? Ok, then let's apply your logic and apply it to what these "victims" have to say: http://www.usvetdsp.com/jf_kerry.htm You want to use a lunatic right wing fringe group web site to back up your argument? You may buy into it Nobbie, but the public isn't. Bush has used 9/11 shamelessly to prop up his failed administration and it looks like the citizens of this country are getting a little tired of it. Let's just see the way enlisted men and veterans vote in November...

I expect most veterans can feel that in their bones. Most of the troops who went to war in Iraq *are* enlisted men. A high percentage of them *are* veterans of one conflict or another. This veteran, and those with whom I associate, place John Kerry right up there with Jane Fonda on our list of despicable people. Your comments display a lack of knowledge of active forces and the national guard. John H On the 'Poco Loco' out of Deale, MD on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay! |

news ![]() This veteran, and those with whom I associate, place John Kerry right up there with Jane Fonda on our list of despicable people. Possible trap - please step in it: 1) What labels do you have for Henry Kissinger during the time when Kerry was doing the things which you feel made him a traitor? And, could you please refresh me on what activities you feel made him a traitor? 2) What labels do you have for thousands of other vets who came home from that war totally disgusted with our government and its policies? 3) What labels do you have for the parents whose political viewpoints were radicalized by the foolishness of that war? |

None of them are running for President. I've never labeled Kerry a traitor. Where did that come from? Kerry made implications about soldiers serving in Vietnam. I performed none of his claimed atrocities. None of my soldiers performed those atrocities (that I'm aware of), and I know of none having been performed in the division to which I was assigned. I found the My Lai massacre atrocious and think the officer in charge should have been hung. Kerry indicates that "free fire zones" allowed the intentional killing of women and children. Bull****.

John H Perhaps they exaggerated based on an emotionally charged climate. And, I used the word traitor because I believe it was pivotal earlier in this thread. But, let's replace that with "despicable", so you can answer the 3 questions I posed for you. Whether someone's running for president is irrelevant. Unless you subscribe to the deity mentality, they are people who are equal to you and I. |
