Thanks for posting this my friend.

Kerry's slam against the Guard vets is a slam against millions of us who served in the reserves as well as the various guard programs.

In the recent Iraq war, we saw Marine reservists doing incredible jobs along with the regular Marines. I know of several Naval Reservists from Commanders to Petty Officers who were called up for duty. They went into harms way or did their job wherever.

In Desert Storm I, reservists and guardsmen served their country and did the job. Ask Fedex about how many of their pilots, co pilots and other flight officers who were Air National Guard people got called up in Desert Storm I. I know of 6.

MSNBC received an email from me yesterday after the embedded ditz they call a reporter with the Kerry campaign came on to rah rah for Kerry and claimed he has stayed away from the National Guard issue.

I provided documentation for their perusal that he most certainly has talked about it, and in fact lumped in those in the National Guard with those who went to Canada.
