[QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [QB] So, John Kerry made a short-lived attempt to put off going to war for a year by continuing to educate himself. When they told him, no, he then explicitly volunteered to be shipped to Vietnam, where his service garnered almost nothing but praise from his commanders and peers. And now that people are questioning him, he released all of his records so that everything is in the open. On the other hand, George Bush explicitly did not volunteer to go overseas. He used his family's money and position to get a cushy National Guard spot where he barely even showed up for duty. Then he got out of duty early, ostensibly for education, but really he just goofed off while at school. Regarding the Purple Heart thing... The government awarded it to him. If he didn't deserve it, what are you suggesting their reason was for giving it to him? Has this all been some 30-odd-year-long conspiracy to get Kerry elected president? And even if his first wound was minor, what about the other two PHs he got? Bush has zero. Some "war president", considering he's never been anywhere near a war in his life. Oh, and as far as "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" are concerned, I have little doubt that they're anything but a huge fraud. If they supposedly have this damning letter signed by every one of Kerry's commanders, why isn't it prominently displayed on their Web site? Why isn't it on their Web site [i]at all[/i]? Considering the kind of things Kerry's superiors wrote about him during the war, I find it hard to believe that they've all suddenly gone from "he's so awesome" to "he's the worst person in the world". That, and John O'Neill is a lying Republican shill. [/QB][/QUOTE]
