I think there are some confused Vets, who are angry about the pension pay vrs. disability pay issues, but I don't know that they were ever Republicans in the first place.

This issue was misrepresented (read lied about ) in the National News Media and frankly by some major Vet's organizations who now feel the need to become hand out recipients rather than true Veterans' Organizations. Any vet voting for Kerry is fool at best.

I don't really know the ins and outs of that issue. I personally wish we could make life comfy for all Vets, I think they deserve it. However I know that isn't realistic, and I understand your point.

Of course you know more about it than I do. I am not a Veteran. I only mention it because it is the only thing that makes sense to me re: their support of Kerry.

The Democrats always represent organizations which are full of "hand out" recipients.

That , IMO, is exactly what makes them the socialists they are. They get their power through the continued victimization of, and pity parties for large groups of people. I used to be a social worker.. I know this well.

Keeping people from excelling is their main concern. So I agree anyone voting for Kerry is a fool, and any Republican voting for Kerry was never a Republican at heart in the first place.

Any Conservative voting for Kerry is a self defeating fool.

Further, a real Conservative is not going to compare Bush to Hitler, or call him a leftist.

People who say those kinds of things were never Republicans, Conservatives or Bush supporters.. there is no loss there.

Some of the others will come back.. you will see.

My main point is that we should make it easy for them to walk back through the doors.
