"What happened 35 years ago is mostly irrelevant..."
With the exception of his Senate testimony, imo.
Nice to see who would be part of a Skerry Admin.
Do the Democrats have anybody working for them that aren't thieves, sex perverts, communists, or imbeciles?
It's just about the most perfect storm brewing that I've ever witnessed.
He doesn't have a message .. he has a plan
What is the plan ?? .. You got me .. but he says he has one
"Jano" Cabrera.....
Yep that fruity looking DNC goof is the one slamming George Bush's military record. What a charade.
It's worse than just sleepwalking.
There are magazine articles which state:
Kerry's family says his "sleepwalking" is highlighted by his running around the house, screaming at the top of his lungs and pounding the walls or anything that gets in his way.
Other Kerry family members have said there are times he gets so upset over an issue, he withdraws into himself and will not speak to anyone for days.
I DO NOT WANT THIS FREAK FOR A PRESIDENT. I CANNOT TRUST WHAT HE WILL DO WHEN HE'S UNDER PRESSURE.
This is where they are putting all their marbles:
Bush lost that congressional race, but twenty-one years later, the AP questioned him about the ad. The news outlet had a good reason to do so. Bush had never served in the Air Force. He had only been in the Air National Guard. But when AP asked Bush if he had been justified in claiming service in the Air Force, Bush, then the governor of Texas and a presidential candidate, said, "I think so, yes. I was in the Air Force for over 600 days." Karen Hughes, his spokeswoman, maintained that when Bush attended flight school for the Air National Guard from 1968 to 1969 he was considered to be on active duty for the Air Force and that several times afterward he had been placed on alert, which also qualified as active duty for the Air Force. All told, she said, Bush had logged 607 days of training and alerts. "As an officer [in the Air National Guard]," she told the AP, "he was serving on active duty in the Air Force."
But this explanation was wrong. Says who? The Air Force. As the Associated Press reported,
The Air Force says that Air National Guard members are considered 'guardsmen on active duty' while receiving pilot training. They are not, however, counted as members of the overall active-duty Air Force.
Anyone in the Air National Guard is always considered a guardsmen and not a member of the active-duty Air Force, according to an Air Force spokeswoman in the Pentagon. A National Guard member may be called to active duty for pilot training or another temporary assignment and receive active-duty pay at the time, but they remain Guard members.
The AP report said, "It may be a question of semantics." But today I checked with two spokespersons for the US Air Force, and each confirmed that an active-duty member of the Air National Guard is not considered a member of the US Air Force. "If a member of the Air National Guard is in pilot training," says Captain Cristin Lesperance of the US Air Force media relations office, "they would remain on the Guard books. They would be counted as Guard, not as an active-duty Air Force member."

Can't you hear that three-dollar bill gaybo reading that ?
That's hilarious!
Actions speak so much louder than words.
What MORON (!) would fire our President for such tripe? The same ones who said character did NOT matter when it came to Klinton?
I am so sick of the leftist hypocrisy. These morons are taking over the country. Our declining cultural values have caused it all. It didn't happen overnight. But it DID happen with the help of RINOs. Traitors on both sides. If they want a cultural meltdown followed by CivilWarII, they're headed in the right direction.
Bastards.
I thought someone said they didn't do urine tests, etc., in the 70's? I don't know, personally, but had seen several people saying that on FR.
Don't you just love it when little nasty people (McCaulife) confirm your suspicions? This is WONDERFUL news...imo. The American public is tired of the lies and the cover-ups and will see Hairy Kari Terry as exactly what he is, a used car salesman with delusions of grandeur.
And I suspect our President isn't going to take it very well either. He probably can let a lot of the smear nonsense run off his back--but don't mess with a Texan if you're going after his yellow rose!
(Maybe that will help)
It's time to make Kerry crazy. Play the Dems non-answer game. If this comes up in a press setting it should be answered by:
"What Senator Kerry did 35 years ago in Vietnam has no bearing on making him a resolute CIC in 2004."
McGovern was an honest liberal. Used to be a common type but a vanishing breed today. The Carter-Mondale-Dukakis string of wipeouts persuaded the lefties that they had to lie to win, and they've operated on that principle ever since.
The Kerry campaign is going to be one for the history books - far and away the most inept presidential campaign in American history.
You were still part of the ARMY.
As the ANG is Part of the Air Force.
Both have a duel control.
Notice that the DNC is playing with words.
They say the official said that the ANG is not part of the
ACTIVE DUTY Air Force. The officials did not say it was not part of the Air Force.
The sad reality is that they do wish to proceed with this because they have left terra firma for lala land.
They are literally destroying everything they had accumulated in an effort to satisfy the unquenchable desire to destroy G.W. and those in support of him.
My only question is how widespread this rooted hate is in this country. I know it doesn't encompass 50% of the electorate. So how far does it reach? 15%? 30%? 40%? 43%? I have no clue. We'll discover that answer when the votes are counted.
My initial response to this latest Drudge headline was to check the calendar. I thought I'd gone back in time. After letting it set in awhile, I feel pity for them.
