This don't sound good.

[ServesURight]

"I was a Bush supporter in 2000 BUT...."

"I'm a lifelong Republican BUT...."

"I voted Republican all my life BUT...."

"I'm a military veteran and fought in 3 wars BUT..."

This article is as phony as the "peaceful tomorrow" commies who slammed Bush's 9/11 ads (paid for by Teresa Heinz).

[Recovering_Democrat]

Well, how about it, military families? Are you mad at the President? Or do you support him?

Frankly, I can't see how a military man can vote for any Democrat Party Operative...

[EggsAckley]

It doesn't sound too credible. Sour grapes. JMHO.

[Recovering_Democrat]

A bipartisan poll of likely voters conducted in September found that Bush’s approval rating among relatives of military personnel was only 36 percent.

I would love the details on this bipartisan poll...

[metoooo]

and some military voters may turn to bush

[Kuksool]

Veterans need to be reminded that the RATS denied them the right to vote in 2000.

[Cannoneer No. 4]

The plan is working.

This don't sound good

It wasn't written to sound good. You do know something called media bias don't you. You have only been registered here since November 2000

BTW, just one example of media bias. This article does not mention Kerry's anti-miltary activities when he came back from Vietnam, his association with anti-military Jane Fonda, or his anti-miltiary votes in Congress.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Some of my own research...war-times.org says "A bipartisan poll published by Business Week in December showed approval for the president at a mere 36 percent among soldiers, their families and veterans."

So, Business Week published this in December....but still no info on the specifics...

[BlessedAmerican]

So are they just going to sit this one out? I can't believe that if this were my career or if my enlistment was not up for 4 more years that I would rather have John Kerry as my Commander!!! Just not believin' this article....

[BlkConserv]

Is this the best the Left can do? Scrounge up one measly, probably-paid-to-say-this-by-the-Rats military veteran to say he doesn't like Bush and spin it that the entire military is against him?

How much lower is the lamestream media going to sink?

[squidly]

Proposed cuts in veterans’ benefits.

That's the misleading part. A few ideas were kicked around Congress and the Pentagon, but none of it was enacted. However, a lot of press coverage was given to the discussion that went on, so much so that there are many people who actually believe such cuts happened.

I think this is TOTAL HOGWASH. This article parrots another article out of the Atlanta Journall last week. It seems whenever Kerry's record on his lying, treasonist, military history pops up on the campaign trail, we get another of these garbage articles. I wish an enterprising freeper would research this organization, to see if they're similar to the Peacefull Tomorrows group.

[E=MC²]

The demonrat media uses BOTH Bush and kerry equally: it accuses Bush constantly and excuses kerry on everything.

[Nick Danger]

Another hilarious example of media dweebs scraping the bottom of the barrel to come up with the Bush Hit of the Day.

This is only March. By September, we'll have news stories like "Dog with ESP tells owner to vote for Kerry... 'for the animals'."

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

This don't sound good.

Hint: THEY all don't sound good. Dude, you've been a member here for almost 4 years. FR should have educated you in Liberal Media Spin 101 by now.

Seems this guy is a SUPPORTER OF WES CLARK!!!!!!!!

Here

I am a 24-year retired Coast Guard warrant officer who is 100 percent disabled," said James McKinnon, a former state commander of the New Hampshire VFW who has agreed to co-chair Clark's veteran outreach effort. "I've lost faith in the government and in this country. Why Clark? That's why."

[JennysCool]

PUH-LEASE!

This is so transparently obvious as a pre-emptive strike to mitigate the withering comments yet to come when our men and women in uniform are asked their opinion of John Kerry.

I have NEVER seen the press so desperate.

They're not even trying to hide their Democrat/Liberal leanings anymore.

There is just no shame left at all in the mainstream media.
