"This administration has overextended our troops, broken his promise to America's veterans, deployed the National Guard indefinitely while leaving their families with financial hardship," Democratic presidential front-runner John Kerry said in a statement. "

And thank you, Mr. Kerry for being at the forefront to downsize our armed forces.

And just who downsized our military to make it so under strength? clintoon/albore is who. Some one repost the amount of troops and hardware we lost under slick willie and albore please!

Mr. Kerry it is called sacrifice, something the regular people understand, to continue our liberty. It is not a social means to further our political goals.

Liberty is my sacred duty, to self, family, and country.

.....bring it on, Kerry and DNC....you won't know what hit you until after Bush and the Republicans win 2004.

[Redleg Duke]

And hey, Mr. Senator Dickhead! Who the hell started indefinite deployments of Guardsmen and women to the Balkans?

Let me give you a hit, that president thought he could play the sax!

Bush made no mention of a pending probe of prewar intelligence.

This is a typical journalism tactic to bring up something negative which has little or nothing to do with the topic. To illustrate: "While speaking to a group of evangelical ministers today, President Bush made no mention of Jim Bakker's time in prison."
