Did any of the media outlets who are now calling "Enough" about Vietnam talk utter a peep when Kerry made it the central issue of his campaign, and his convention? Or when the libs spent six months calling W AWOL? No. It's just that Vietnam is no longer the slam-dunk issue for Kerry that it once was that they want to cease the talk.

No they didn't. They're crying UNCLE now, just like the "cleric" at Najarif, but they're liars just like he is.

NOTE TO MSM: How can we change the subject when you have yet to engage the subject? When you deem the subject appropriate enough to investigate it, then you will have moral authority to suggest the subject needs changing.

They really should keep the kids out of the editorial department until they are old enough to buy a clue.

This has been answered over and overm but here goes again. Kerry made his military record the centerpiece of his campaign...his raison d'etre for running, why he's qualified to lead our sons and daughters into peril. The writer, as well as the rest of the country, is sick and tired of rehashing Vietnam on MSM terms. This time, however, men who served with Kerry and whose reputations were smeared and sullied, demand that the truth be told and that the country listen.

Kerry's an empty suit and always has been. There's no one inside whatever expensive threads he's put on. If we let this Swift Boat controversy slide, or allow the MSM to bury it, Kerry and his pals will fog it away. They will then smear Bush with the talking point of the day, meanwhile saying they want to debate the issues. Kerry doesn't have a game plan, remember? Everything's secret with him. He can't tell us until he's elected. Then, God help us, he'll RAISE OUR TAXES through the roof and hand what's left of the country over to the UN. Swift Boat Vets deserve their day in the sun. They're doing God's work. Don't doubt this for a minute.

Laughable. The cries of "Enough is enough" from the same media that went digging for President Bush's dental and driving records as a teenager only to find out he didn't go AWOL. Hypocrites.

Debate? Here you go:

Which candidate is more qualified to bring our involvement in Iraq to a safe and satisfactory conclusion? - Bush will win the war. Kerry would surrender to the French Girl Scouts

Which candidate can best spur our economy on to greater things? - Bush will with tax cuts and reduction of regulations. Kerry would raise taxes and burden industry with Kyoto and other dumb liberal crap.

Which candidate has a better solution to the country's growing health care crisis? - Bush will promote moving more of the solution to the private sector. Kerry would tax the people to death and cripple our health care delivery systems by shifting it even more to government.

Which candidate has a better plan to fix social security? Bush will propose privatizing as much as possible. Kerry would break the back of the tax payers.

Which candidate is better for the job of keeping us safe from terrorist attacks? Bush obviously. He's a proven fighter. Kerry is a coward.

Which candidate has better ideas for bringing this country closer to energy self-sufficiency? Bush promotes energy independence. Kerry is an extreme envronmentalist and will cripple America and destroy our ability to compete in world markets.

And, perhaps most important, which candidate has the leadership to make these things happen? Bush obviously. A proven leader. Kerry is a jerk who couldn't even "command" a six man boat crew.



"Government is not the solution. Government is the problem."

Please, please, enough already with the 'Bush lied'. Hey, Kerry said "Bring - it - on", well, he got what he asked for.

These angry nasty times seem to have become so contentious that we can no longer find the opportunity to discuss our future.

These times are not just angry. They're not just nasty. They're angry nasty!
