I had no idea we were bumping heads. At any rate, I am not falling for all of the Kerry PR blitz BS either. What irks me is that Bush backers are doing the very same thing that they were accusing the Kerry folks of doing a number of months ago concerning the presidents record as a reservist.

Bottom line concerning their military service, Kerry was in-country, under fire. That much, I admire. As for that crap he spewed afterwards, he needs his butt kicked for. Bush on the other hand was in the Texas Air National Guard. It would be like me trading war stories with an Indianapolis survivor.

"Bush on the other hand was in the Texas Air National Guard. It would be like me trading war stories with an Indianapolis survivor."

My point still stands. Bush has never said he was a hero. He joined the National Guard. The National Guard did and still does get activated. The thing that probably really kept him from going to Vietnam is that the aircraft he was qualifies on was obsolete.

Kerry continues to wrap himself in his self proclaimed heroism. Any good he did in Vietnam, and I question that, he threw away with his actions after the war. You can not separate them. You can not pretend they did not happen. And those actions border on Treason. LT Calley and/or his men may well have done heroic things prior to the My Lai Massacre. That act alone wiped out everything else they ever did.
