Actually, that is not strictly true. In the period when Bush was in the National Guard, Kerry was an angry Vietnam veteran protesting with Jane Fonda and accusing his comrades of being drug-addled rapists, torturers, mutilators and murderers committing war crimes on a scale surpassing the Japanese and the Nazis. But that's a mere detail. To the media, the contrast is simple: Kerry = war hero; Bush = something smaller, shiftier. Bill Clinton, of course, is smallest and shiftiest of the lot, but, back in '92, John Kerry stood shoulder to shoulder with his fellow Democrat and said, "We do not need to divide America over who served and how." Now, apparently, we do. So Kerry has his supporter Max Cleland, former Senator, fellow veteran and triple amputee, all over the talk-shows, explaining that the difference between giving Clinton a pass on draft-dodging and hammering relentlessly on Bush's National Guard record is that in 2004 "it's the national security, stupid. We want a President who can really be Commander-in-Chief". And the fact that Bush, as Commander-in-Chief, has liberated two countries, overthrown the Taliban and slung Saddam in jail counts for less than whether he bunked off for the weekend in 1972.

The Democrats are INSANE _ and I fear for the country if one is elected Presidetn.

The Democrats and the media should be fearful of the fires of revolution they stoked in downplaying the violent excesses of the "peace" protestors last Spring. The protests were organized by globally connected black shirted socialist-anarchists, some of whom alligned with the communist party, the worker's world party, etc.

WE know what they stood for. The DummyRats saw them as common travellers (and a needed constiuency if you realize that Algore Jr. would have won Florida if only he had gotten the commie vote, forget about the Watermelon Greens).

They may not be so silent this time a Democrat is president. They weren't silent in 1968 and they won't be easily placated. They are the bunch behind the WTO and G8 summit protests. They've been burning SUV dealerships (without the press outrage that would come from an abortion clinic fire).

National Security will be jeopardized by Democrat "leadership" (if you can call someone who would defer leadership to the UN and EU popular opinion; heck, even the Supreme Court doesn't want to tick off foreign nations).
