...if you really do care about this kind of thing—and I can’t stop you—then all you really need to know is that Kerry volunteered to fight in Vietnam and then returned home to fight for his country to do the right thing by its veterans and stop asking them to die for an impossible cause. Bush, on the other hand, supported the war, but used his daddy’s influence to stay out of the war, specifically requested not to be sent to Vietnam, and then wasted the government’s million dollar investment in his training by failing to show up for training and forfeiting his right to fly the planes in the unlikely event he would ever be asked to.


Meanwhile, 964 young Americans are dead in George W. Bush's insane war.

Eight of them died just this past weekend. Their names have not yet been released. Eight more families are going to get a visit from the military saying [Python]"Sorry!"[/Python]

How many have to die before WE say "Enough!"?
