I think what he was implying was Bush was not smart and ended up in Iraq. Unfortunately for him and good for us he did not fill out the statement and it came out as an insult to the people in the armed forces.
I think he was implying Orange Co. lets convicts choose between time & .mil service.
That's a stretch worthy of the MSM spin machine. I'm not buying. No question he meant to mock the troops.
"I think what he was implying was Bush was not smart and ended up in Iraq."
I don't think he meant that at all. I think he meant just what he said- just like all elites he has disdain for the military and can't understand why anyone would serve. Remember, the only reason he joined was that he thought he was about to be drafted.
I disagree, doubled, though I'm sure those who support Kerry will try to spin it that way. He is talking to students, about their future. I'd have to use some pretty twisted logic to think that he was referring to President Bush.
On a side note, I'm one of those folks who believe that when someone is referring to the President of the United States, we address the office with respect. Liberals refer to him as "Bush" out of a lack of respect. He's PRESIDENT Bush to me.
You mean he meant to say that if you don't work hard and do your homework in college, you'll be too dumb to graduate and end up being President of the US instead?
