4. What is the big deal?
I'm not sure what is meant by "going after." As far as I know Kerry's record is private. There's no way anyone can get "it" unless Kerry releases it. I don't understand the concern.

14. The point is that all Republicans are A-Holes.
There's no argument about that around here. We all understand that, and we understand that there is no slimy rock that the Republicans will not slither beneath in their quest to steal yet another Presidential election.

2. Most of them who trash Kerry
never served in the military. I had one tell me that winning a medal was nothing. I told him about my brother's Silver Star and asked the freeper how he had served. Never got an answer.

3. How about: Bring it on - It's Sure to Backfire
Edited on Sat Apr-17-04 08:01 PM by Feanorcurufinwe
They'll attack Kerry for serving his country,



they'll attack him for having a conscience.

5. Dig another hole for Bush, ha!
Tell the troops in IRAQ that Republicans are trashing a fellow decorated soldier.
While chicken-crap George ran away, John Kerry stepped up to the plate..
Republicans do NOT support soldiers who fight for this country.
They mock their heroism!

SHAME ON THEM

************ Republicans are UnPatriotic *************

6. Obscene...
...since I can remember during Clinton's campaigns, we heard nothing but complaints about how he avoided the draft.

8. They are contemptible....
In the same breath that they attack Clinton as a draft dodger, and "question" John Kerry's service to his country, they defend AWOL *. It defies all logic and reason. Just think - one day, one of the tens of thousands of troops risking their lives on a daily basis for *'s lies will be attacked by a right wing smear campaign. :eyes:

7. It's typical ultra-right wing slime
And I also detect some jealousy by Bush and co. that they aren't a war hero like Kerry, so they want to cover up their weakness.

9. When John Kerry stands to publicy debate Liar George,
he should be sure to proudly wear ALL his heroism medals.
In your stupid face George!

11. Close, but it's not jealousy
It's a tactic. It's better to argue about Kerry's record (even if there's no substance) than argue about AWOL's (because there IS substance)

Just watch! If you know any Freepers, bring up AWOL and watch them start asking about Kerry's PH's

10. It's a good deal.
It makes AWOL's record (or lack of one) fair game all through the campaign.

13. That's THREE Purple Hearts, and one Silver Star
Most military personnel would bow at your feet if you walked by with those medals.

15. Kerry's Record
Well, Cheney was deferred out of eligibility for Viet Nam, we all know about Bush, many others with (R) after their name avoided the war, McCain was a POW, but I wouldn't lump him in the same category as the other scum. The point is that they, who never served under any combat conditions, willingly place the lives of others in jeapordy and ridicule the service of those veterans who did sacrifice for the country.

16. Rove has to distort his record...so Kerry can't use the AWOL, 9-11
Iraq war tragedies, etc...as issues, if Kerry is smart (which he is) he should never respond, it's Rove's stinking bait!

17. A distraction for sure.
Real issues are Incompetence, poor decision making, ulterior motives/agenda, selfishness, and desire for Control/domination for nefarious reasons.

The Pubs are definitely not benevolent to America.

18. I voted "fair game"

Fine. Let them dig away,they aren't going to find what they are looking for,rather the opposite.It's a losing battle for them and something for them to waste their time and resources on.

19. Going after Kerry's Purple Heart is the most...
stupid statement I've ever heard. They tell us to support our troops then go after one of their own. That should tell any military person something. Going after the Purple Heart is easier than trying to explain the Bronze and Silver Star. The military writes good commentary along with the Stars. Someone needs to leak both of those to the media. Stupid desperate bunch on the 'Hill.'
