Ah, one more thing!
This whole John Kerry war record 'thing' is quietly irritating me. You know, one thing is a fact: John Kerry was actually in Vietnam. As I seem to recall, George Bush nor anyone in his immediate administration even went overseas. And what the fuck does it matter anyway whether or not things transpired exactly as they did ...what the fuck does it have to do with anything going on right now? It would seem there is about a metric butt-load of other issues we should be talking about right now, but we're talking about something that happened some thirty years ago.
Wait...*pushes up thick black framed glasses*...I heard an interesting story on NPR. Evidently this is a pretty successful tactic....attack an opponents war record and for some reason this seems to put them in a bad light and they lose. It really bothers me that men, who I may or may not see eye-to-eye with, are finding that their military service to their country is a liability. What does this say to our service men and women out there right now? Or do they care?
Anyhoo...just had to get that off the ol' chest.
