If the allegations...

You are only fooling yourself. The "allegations" you speak of could be anything. One falsehood one day, another the next. Falsehoods deserve NO consderation -- except to the foolish.

"White Power!" -- if yelled, then by a Democratic shill, most certainly.

Are you coordinating?

No, you are the one obssessed with insignificant minutia! One, W has an honorable discharge and, two, he has served as CinC for 4 years and done a wonderful job.

Whether he attended a drill or not has meaning only to to the kerrorists who have to be able to scream, "He lied!" Kerry has nithing to speak for his candidacy; his post-Nam service is dirty, he is lazy and has NOTHING to show for 20 in the Seante. His only hope is to attack W and, if he has to manufacture stuff, so what.

It doesn't matter what he did in the ANG 30 years ago. What matters is the attacks on Teheran and Damascus. Oh, and they will be executed by a coalition, mostly airborne and marines.

Kerry and his traitorous, anti-American forging weasel have to find points to scream "He lied" about to divert attention from Gigilo John's shady background and the large pile of negatives we haven't talked about yet.

You puke this up after being here one whole day?

I think the possession of his DD-214 would satisfy most legal needs as to fulfilling his requirements. especially as it was prepared by another, not by himself, (As in F'ns case)

You list the curriculum of the Dan Rather Correspondence School of Journalism. However you have not given the location for those who wish to attend.

The Dan Rather Correspondence School of Journalism is located next to:

The Teddy Kennedy Institute for Sobriety and the Teddy Kennedy Driving School.

Next Door is the company that makes the Natalie Woods water-wings.

Next door, on the other side, is the Benedict Arnold/Judas Iscariot Institute for Loyalty.

Across the street is the Bill and Hillary Clinton Institute for Ethics in Government.

What son and what "new" documents speak you of?

Tell us -- have all you all adapted and learned to create better forgeries? Good for you! Yet bad, too -- fraud and lies are arts best avoided, they endanger one's soul. Your own words the clue there. "New" documents, indeed!
