George W. Bush is not running on his military record. John F'n Kerry has made his entire campaign on his Viet Nam record. That is the difference.
Kerry has made his military records germain to this election and campaign. Again, Bush has not. Tit for tat is irrelevant here.
What else has Mr. John F'n Kerry done besides Viet Nam?? A un acceptable Massachusetts Senate voting record.
By the way, the picture of the rifle he is handling I saw a few days ago, looking like he was in favor of gun rights. He tried to get that same weapon banned. He was responsible for the writing of the bill, not just voting for it.
It appears we have reached the phase of the election where the media has devolved into "felons with typewriters"
