We hear a lot in this Presidential campaign about 30-year-old events. People change a lot in 30 years, we're told, and that is true, although liberals certainly don't want us to think it's true about Bush. So let's have a little fun looking 30 years into the future, shall we?
Let's say that 30 years in the future, Pfc. Lynndee England, the girl in the Abu Ghraib photos, were to be a candidate for President. Would you consider supporting her? Or does Abu Ghraib reveal character failings that are disqualifying?
If your answer is that you would not support her, then why would you support John Kerry? The things he has admitted to doing -- cutting off heads, burning villages, and the like -- are far worse than anything Lynndee England has done. Yet liberals seem to regard Pfc. England as a vile person who must be stomped upon, but regard John Kerry as a hero.
More liberal logic.
Thank you.
Nah, I think that's conservatives who consider her vile. Liberals think she's a victim/scapegoat of Rummy's schemes, and was just doing what she was told.
Of course liberals view her as a vile person. She's in the U.S. military, and the only dcent person who has ever been in the U.S. military is John Fn. Kerry
