Reply #38: Its still bush's fault

[CTLawGuy]

but you won't admit I believe that because I also blame your beloved Captain Electable for his part in the war. Bush used the IWR as a means to go to war, with congress' approval. It is as simple as that. I'm sorry you won't understand that.

Bush is pure evil for starting this war. Everyone here knows that. I don't have to say that on this board. It would be a waste of bandwith. What I do have to say on this board, because it is more controversial, is how I am displeased with Kerry (and the other Dems who voted for this crap)

Would it be wrong to be upset with a teacher who saw the same child coming into class with bruises over his body every day, and decided it wasn't her business? How should that child feel about her? No, she didn't beat the child, but she was in a position to AT LEAST TRY to do something to stop it.

Kerry didn't even give us that. If he were the teacher, then he gave the abusive parent a stick, but told them not to beat the child. What a mixed message.

It's the same with the IWR. "I'll give you the authority to go to war, but just please consider not using it." That is unacceptable to the families of the 1800+ soldiers who will never see their children, mothers, and fathers again. Didn't Kerry owe it to them, as a military man himself, to do SOMETHING to help ensure their loved ones didn't get sent to die for a lie (at least not enabling it)?

Despite serving in Vietnam, Kerry is a coward of the highest order, and will remain so until the moment he apologizes for voting for IWR. How dare he put his own "electability" over 1800+ human lives. He should know about wars that are a mistake. He voted, in a sense, for the modern Gulf of Tonkin Resolution.

He testified passionately against the last needless war that he served in. Why did he forget that lesson? Was it because he wanted to be president so badly?


It's a brave act to admit one is wrong. I hope someday he will realize that fact. I am waiting to forgive him, but first he must realize how he was wrong. His continued defense of his vote during the campaign doesn't help matters much.
