Most of the union guys I know, guys my age who never had the
opportunities college offers and who worked physical labor for 40 years,
also speak English better than Bush. And read it better, too.

This is even spookier: All the news sources interview people from China and
other countries whose languages are as much like English as potatoes are
like celery. They all surpass Bush in their command of our language. The
sheep here will respond that the news media CHOOSE people to interview based
on their ability to communicate, but that's a silly argument. I don't care
if someone from Beijing had the richest parents on earth and attended all
the best schools. They still grew up in Beijing, while Bush grew up (?)
here. What a joke.

Bill,
I did not know Kerry accused the soldiers of raping, stealing and killing
innocent soldiers.


I don't know that he ever did. In his congressional testimony, he
referred to soldiers who had confessed to war crimes at the Winter Soldier
Investigation. He did not accuse soldiers of war crimes. If you read the
complete transcript, he comes across as a well spoken, young man.

You two make a great M.A.S.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but you seem to be using the Texas thing as an
excuse for your leader sounding like a dolt. That's an insult to the rest
of
Texas. Are you sure that's what you want to imply?


You're wrong. I'm damn sure of what I want to imply, when I want to imply
anything.

I use "... the Texas thing..." (as you so quaintly put it) as an example
simply of why GW doesn't sound like another New England Prep School Kennedy
clone. You seem to be implying that anyone who doesn't do the Kerry/Kennedy
impersonation sounds like a dolt. Are you sure that's what you want to
imply? :-)

I didn't think it was possible for someone to be dumber than Basskisser, but
Don has done it.

Be careful not to take anything of his, because the law requires him to shot
you in the face.

Hmmm. Records of Bush's Purple Hearts, Silver Stars, Bronze Stars, DSC
and Medal of Honor seem to be missing.

How about you, Bertie? Got any real medals?

Bertie isn't running for President or portraying himself as a war
hero. If you think we need to know about him -- how about you? Got
any real medals, Harry? It doesn't matter to me, I am just curious
because I don't know, were you in the military? This stuff apparently
matters to you.

OK. I'll take that as a "no."

You know, the silly thing about all this records flap is that some of the
records are meaningless if you don't know how to interpret them.

snip

The other thing about FitReps that bears understanding is the fact that they
were not necessarily objective. In the military of the fifties and sixties,
and into the seventies, any evaluative mark less than "outstanding" was a
potential career breaker. A rating of Excellent to Outstanding could have
meant that you were Excellent to Outstanding, or it could have meant that,
while not particularly valuable, you were a nice guy to have around, and
were not a danger to anyone.

I was discussing this with my wife as the same thing happened in the
80s. When I was in the Air Force, airman performance reports had
rating from 1 to 9. "9" being the top. I don't recall how many
catagories there were but getting all 9s was pretty much the norm. It
was not uncommon in my unit for supervisor to have an APR sent back if
he/she gave a subordanate more the one "8" on an APR. Nobody I ever
worked with, got a 7 anywhere.

Contrast that to reviews we do in the large corporate environment
where I work now. We have "DN" Does not meet requirements, "IN"
Imrpovement needed, "M" Meets expectations, "VE" Very Effective, and
"E" Exceeds Expectations. If you show up for work and do you job
you'll get all "M"s from me. When I as in the Air Force that would
get you "all nines" (which was not uncommon at all).
