  • Quote: Originally posted by faust9 I'm a VFW member. They finally let gulf war vets in. I go and hang out with my pop from time to time. Drink a beer and talk. Most of the guys at his chapter feel the smear campaigns of the GOP against vets who s…
  • Quote: Originally posted by faust9 What happened to the other straw men? I thought you had first hand accounts from multiple sources which you used to sway your opinion. I thought you read articles from other GI's wwho made these accounts? …
  • Quote: Originally posted by faust9 Nice diversion. Heaven forbid you address the topic. Did Kerry deserve the medals? Yes, buy all accounts he met the criteria of the purple hearts. The only naysayers are a former commander who did not deny the c…
  • Quote: Originally posted by faust9 Again, links. You can make allegations all you want but your not backing anything with links. I've backed my statements with facts. Kerry was awarded the stars for Valor. If you think a silver or bronze star wou…
  • Quote: Originally posted by ShawnJ Most of us flatly reject "black and white" worldviews such as your own, allowing the possibility of multiple angles for every issue. This adversarial "us vs them" logic seriously limits your understanding of th…

  • Quote: Originally posted by pfflam No see . . . you don't get it shawn . . . Bush was nowhere to be found . . . but Kerry, having to leave, "took advantage of" the military's policy. There is no partisan bias in such an interpretation . . .naw…
  • There is one other difference between Kerry and Bush. Kerry is running as the Vietnam War hero who did his duty when asked. When you make an issue like this a central theme of a presidential campaign and when you basically say that your opponent shi…
  • Quote: Originally posted by pfflam these Bush-lickers are priceless!! Why don't you guys actually respond to a post rather than coming back with a lame and quippy one-liner? Perhaps you find the truth disquieting? Once again we see a …
  • Quote: Originally posted by shetline At least a few people seem to remember Kerry showing up to do his duty. Bush has proven that he did serve definitively. He provided complete records of his service - end of story. He flew one of the most d…
