"You don't see Korean veterans or World War II veterans or Grenada veterans always talking about 'I served here and I served there,'" said Eubanks, 67, a Bush supporter.I don't hear GWB doing it either! J.F'n.K is the only one doing it.

In my twenty plus years of service I never served with a muslim. I never met or saw one who was a militray retiree. I think the whole article is DNC liberal lies, deception and propaganda.

I know some muslims have served, but I wouldn't be at all surprised that this whole thing was garbage.

Lots of pics of that scumbag hugging the enemy. Same as Jane Fonda in my opinion.

If you check B.G. Burkett's exhaustively researched book--Stolen Valor--he says Rather dodged the Korean War by joining the National Guard. There were no college deferments then. When the war ended and Rather graduated from college he enlisted in the Marine Corps. He lasted a few weeks in boot camp before getting a medical discharge. Rather's explaination was that he had rumatic fever as a child and this enabled him to whimp out. I think he pulled an elaborate scam to end his military obligation. I spent 13 months in a Marine rifle company (C-1-5) in Vietnam but I have always respected the guardsmen. I don't resent anything George Bush did then. And Bush never called me a rapist or a murder.

When it becomes well known (and it will) that these documents were forged as a political dirty trick, this will backfire big time on the dimwits.
When CBS first aired the story I noted the contents were not harmful to Bush. Once it became clear they were fake, one must think they tried to achieve spinnability and not get too far afield from authentic documents, but from these comments no harm done. People either had their anti-Bush feelings confirmed or they were apathetic.
Backlash is coming.

DNC garbage non-collectable. This reminds minds me of an aids activist a few years back. He was dressed in a US Army greens(Dress uniform) wearing the Medal Of Honor.He was shortly exposed and had never even served in the military.This is the typical DNC psych/opns in progress.

I talked about this with a Democrat at the office yesterday. He said it was turnabout for the SwiftBoat Vets "lies" and we should not complain.I would have replied with a firm "The Swift Vets are not lying but CBS and the democrats are about GWB" and left it at that.
Repeat as necessary if the lib goes on an insane rant.

Does anybody think that Rather thinks his bio precludes him from being President??
I mean, he already thinks it qualifies him to be God.
To: Cincinatus' Wife
Dan Rather, according to STOLEN VALOR by B.G. Burkett, joined the national guard in college to escape the Korean War. This was before college deferments. When the war ended, Rather quit the reserves by enlisting in the Marine Corps. He lasted a few weeks in boot camp before getting a medical discharge, thus ending his military obligation. Burkett's book says Rather's medical problem related to him having rumatic fever as a child. Since medical information is confidential, this explanation must have come from Rather himself.
