Forget what kerry mis-says or says, or puts on his website,...what is most clear is his shady military ethics and conduct, and his deranged voting stances...
Sorry, RAN, but the other candidate is the one with "shady military ethics." Kerry served with valor according to everyone who served WITH him.
Yup, bravely volunteering to serve in Vietnam is more shady than being coked up in Alabama! What color's the sky in your world?
What shady military ethics are you referring to? Do you mean risking his own life to Save the life of a Green Beret? That's what Kerry did. There isn't even any dispute that that's what he did. That makes him a hero, no shady. Do you mean Kerry seeing an enemy on shore with a grenade launcher and turning his boat ashore, leaping off the boat, chasing the combatant down, and then killing the man? Or do you mean following the orders to participate in free fire zones which common at the time, and Kerry later believed to violate the Geneva Convention. When Kerry did those things he was following the orders of commanders who praised soldiers for cutting off civilians escapes in those free fire zones and then killing the civilians. By the way, the commander who praised that kind of activity is one of the people in ad against Kerry.
... Many in the crowd laughed when Bush struggled to answer a question about what tribal sovereignty means for Native American tribes in the 21st century. "Tribal sovereignty means that; it's sovereign. I mean, you're a -- you've been given sovereignty, and you're viewed as a sovereign entity. And therefore the relationship between the federal government and tribes is one between sovereign entities," Bush replied. ... http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20040806/pl_nm/campaign_bush_dc&ncid=2043
Bush embarrasses himself in New Mexico during an "Ask President Bush" event with a chosen audience... he can't even keep quiet about the staged questions... (He also appeared at a corporate jet factory to symbolize the success of entreprenuership.) ____________________ Q Mr. President, I would like to know what your administration has done to help women and children in domestic violence situations. THE PRESIDENT: Well, we've said to the Justice Department, work with states to make sure that the states have got the resources necessary to bring people to justice. That's what states are supposed to do. Supposed to -- states are supposed to pass laws that make it easier for law enforcement to be able to do its job when it comes to domestic violence. And when I was the governor of Texas, we made it easier for an abused spouse to be able to call her spouse into account without facing retribution. We had notification laws when a spouse was released from jail. In other words, we stood on the side of the abused person. We had the law stand side-by-side with the person, as opposed to making the environment such that many people were afraid to turn in an abusive spouse. And two, if the abusive spouse had been punished, they were afraid of the consequences after the spouse had been out. This is -- the truth of the matter is, most good policy -- or policy is made at the state level under state laws. And what the federal government can do, the federal government can help on grant-making to help states with those type of laws. Q And what about the Family Justice Center Initiative? Didn't you announce that last year? THE PRESIDENT: The family -- Q -- the pilot program -- $21 million? THE PRESIDENT: Oh, I did, so thanks for reminding me. (Laughter.) How quickly we forget. It was a loaded question, wasn't it? http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2004/08/20040811-6.html
