So why are you judging Kerry? He has been hung, drawn, and quartered Any judgement of mine about Kerry has little to do with his
actions as a swift boat commander. I just don't find them heroic or
exceptionally outstanding. My over all thought of Kerry was that he was a Trojan
Horse. He was being billed by the Democratic Party as a war Hero and military
man tested by fire ready to lead. I smelled a fish immediately. The democrats
have no respect for the military. They try to whittle it down every chance they
get and they have a reputation of being soft on defense. But since America had
been attacked on 9/11 they knew they had to shed this image or never regain
power again. Thus the military hero. Kerry, from my point of view was supposed
to trick voters into thinking they would be safer with him as president and then
the democrats could raid and sack the military budget once again for social
program funding. Kerry would have pulled us out of Iraq just like in Vietnam and
then begged forgiveness to whoever took power. <As for Bush hiding in
the Guard, Yeah I would say anybody that joined the guard probably did so to
avoid the draft and probably service in Nam. However that was not considered
draft dodging back at that time. Neither were any legal deferments considered
dodging the draft then. Draft dodging was not reporting for your induction
and or going to Canada to avoid it. I would say any military service is
admirable but actually going to war deserves an extra measure of respect. I
wouldn't call flying a military jet whether your being shot at or not an act of
cowardice nor would I call seeing action in a war zone an act of heroism.
I think both men served their country well while in the
service.
