Yes,and unlike libs,we are compassionate,and are do'ers not just talkers like the limo libs. I am glad I experienced Broward County dirty politics because I am toughened up to fight against the dirty dems anywhere.

I guess we now know the title of the biographical DVD series Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks will produce on Kerry's war service:

BAND OF BROTHERS REPRISED: How John Kerry became his own one-man-band o' brothers

He did the action
He wrote the reports
He is a HERO

"Mike was knocked out of bed during a mortar attack and bumped and bruised his head, Kerry would have requested a PH."

Oh!!! mystery-ak, how wrong you are again,.......

If that happened to John inFidelity Kerry, he would not have had to request anything, his Superiors monitored his every movement and they were carrying an arsenal of medals, just in case their golden boy might get a boo boo or the slight chance he might be able to finish off a gravely injured gook.

I would never dismiss anyone's service to this country, but I have read at least 2000 pages of info on this asshat in the past two weeks and I have absolutely no respect for John Kerry and I truly believe he joined the Navy for his post Navy agenda.

What John Kerry did when he came back from Vietnam gave a whole new meaning to the term "Back Stabber" or "Traitor" I salute John Kerry for serving, but I have problems with his record and his post war actions, and IMHO John Kerry is unfit to serve as our Commander-in-Chief

"Simple Man"
(To be sung to Charlie Daniels Band's "Simple Man")

I ain't nuthin' but a simple man...Left calls me a redneck, reckon that I am...
But there's things goin' on make me mad down to the core!
I gotta work like Left's dawg...I'm enslaved to DeeCee...
Where crooked politicians sell our Nukes to Chinese,
And I'm madder than Hell and I ain't gonna take it no more!
Reagan told our kids to, "Just Say No!"
But then Ol' Slick Willie jokes, "Let's have another toke!"
Tells us 'bout his briefs, then laughs while his intern goes down.
Well, if I had my way with this Apostle From Hope,
I'd take a big tall tree and a short piece of rope,
I'd hang 'im up high and let 'im swing 'til Ol' Slick steps down!

Well, you know what's wrong with the world today,
People done gone thrown their values away,
They livin' by the "Law of Slick Willie" not the "Law of the Land."
Well, the Good Book says it so I need no more proof...
"A Lie's still a Lie and the Truth's still the Truth."
Bill better watch what he's sayin', Law's closin' in on him,
Can't you Sheeple see it?! Slick's a Felon, man!!!

Now I'm the kinda man who wouldn't harm a mouse,
But if I ketch somebody breakin' in my house,
I gotta 12-gauge shotgun waitin' on the other side!
So don't go a pushin' me against my will,
I don't wanna fight ya but I durn sure will,
So if you don't want trouble you better just pass me on by!
Becuz as far as I'm concerned there ain't no excuse,
For Slick's Rapin', Mad Bombin', and Power Abuse,
But I gotta way to put an end to all that madness...
You just put them Lib'rals back on a boat,
Send 'em all First-class and make sure that it floats,
Send 'em all 'round the world and leave 'em wherever they like best!

Well, you know what's wrong with the world today,
People done gone put their Bibles away...
They livin' by the "Law of Bill Clinton" not the "Law of the Land."
Well, the Good Book says it, so I need no more proof,
A Lie's still a Lie and the Truth's still the Truth!
Bill better watch what he's sayin', we're closin' in on him...
Right's Hell-bent on Justice...Slick's a Traitor, man!!

Bill, watch where you're goin', Slim's just around the bend...
Mudboy's bent on Justice, you're just Hist'ry, man!!

For anyone who has not seen it.....There is an article on newsmax.com that debunks the bush-haters "why has nobody come forward that recalls seeing bush on the base at the time in question" rants. Well, someone has come forward, today.
Stangely the newsmax.com web site appears to be down right now, however not to worry, I had already cut and pasted the article. Here it is:

NewsMax.com Wires Friday, Feb. 13, 2004 A retired Alabama Air National Guard officer said Friday that he remembered George W. Bush showing up for duty in Alabama in 1972, reading safety magazines and flight manuals in an office as he performed his weekend obligations. "I saw him each drill period," retired Lt. Col. John "Bill" Calhoun said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press from Daytona Beach, Fla., where he is preparing to watch this weekend's big NASCAR race.

"He was very aggressive about doing his duty there. He never complained about it. ... He was very dedicated to what he was doing in the Guard. He showed up on time, and he left at the end of the day."

Calhoun, whose name was supplied to the AP by a Republican close to Bush, is the first member of the 187th Tactical Reconnaissance Group to recall Bush distinctly at the Alabama base in the period of 1972-1973. He was the unit's flight safety officer.

The 69-year-old president of an Atlanta insulation company said Bush showed up for work at Dannelly Air National Guard Base for drills on at least six occasions. Bush and Calhoun had been trained as fighter pilots, and Calhoun said the two would swap "war stories" and even eat lunch together on base.

Calhoun is named in 187th unit rosters obtained by the AP as serving under the deputy commander of operations plans. Bush was in Alabama on non-flying status.

"He sat in my office most of the time. He would read," Calhoun said. "He had your training manuals from your aircraft he was flying. He'd study those some. He'd read safety magazines, which is a common thing for pilots."

Democrats have asked for proof that Bush, then a 1st lieutenant with the Texas Air National Guard, turned up for duty in Alabama, where Bush had asked to be assigned while he worked on the U.S. Senate campaign of family friend Winton "Red" Blount.

The White House released pay and medical records this week.

The 187th's former commander, retired Brig. Gen. William Turnipseed, has said he doesn't remember Bush turning up on base, and more than a dozen members of the 800-person unit, including its commander, told The Associated Press this week they had no recollection of Bush. Critics have made much of the fact that the White House had not produced anyone who could remember seeing Bush there.

Calhoun said he contacted Texas GOP leaders with his story in 2000 when the issue was raised just before the November election.

But if Dems Repeat a Lie Often Enough ...

"I got on the phone and got information and called Austin, Texas, and talked to the Republican campaign. They said I was talking to the campaign manager," he said. "I told him my story and said I would be glad to provide information to that effect. At that time they said ... the story is not true. And we don't think it's got enough weight to stay out as a story.' And they said, 'But if it does we'll call you back.' And I never heard from them again."

Last week Calhoun sent an e-mail to the White House offering to tell his story. "I got a response back, one of those automatic responses," he said. It wasn't until his wife contacted Georgia GOP officials that Calhoun's name surfaced.

White House press secretary Scott McClellan said Friday that the White House was not making any effort to locate people who might have served with Bush. He accused reporters of trying to raise new lines of questioning, beyond whether Bush served in Alabama.

Critics have suggested that Bush used his family connections to get the safe Guard assignment ahead of thousands of others. But Calhoun said Bush never mentioned his congressman father while they sat together at Dannelly.

"I knew he was working in the senatorial campaign, and I asked him if he was going to be a politician," said Calhoun, a staunch Republican. "And he said: 'I don't know. Probably.'"

Calhoun has not made any donations to Bush this election season or during the 2000 season, according to campaign finance records

Anyone who has to tout his own record is no Hero. My Cousin (who was more like a brother) joined the Marines in 1967, he was sent to the jungles of Vietnam in April of 1968 and shortly after getting there he volunteered to become a "Forward Observer" or "FO", he stepped on a land mine on Halloween day 1968 while on a "Search and Destroy" Mission. He spent the next 13 months in Guam and Bethesda Naval Hospital and the next three years learning how to walk again.

Yesterday I talked to my Cousin Joe about John Kerry and his post war activities in the group he led "Vietnam Vets against the War". He told me that John Kerry would be wise to stay away from those he slandered in 1971. I didn't know my Cousin knew of John Kerry's actions after the War. He told me that he was just back on his feet and walking a little when he saw highlights of John Kerry's testimony to congress and he said to himself "That PUKE served on a "Swift Boat" WTF would he know about "Raising Villages" or "Cutting Off Heads" he never ventured more than 100 yards from any given shore"

My Cousin said to me.. "Mike, I was just a grunt, I volunteered to serve, I got injured and I have no regrets, but I would rather be rotting in the outskirts of Ky Son than turn on my buddies"
