				| I think the controversy is beneficial.  Let Kerry try to ride that horse and build a history of riding that horse.  When the dawn finally rises on the speciousness of that dodge, it will be all the worse for his credibility, what's left of it. |  |

				| I agree.  The DNC definition of "served with" would exclude two infantrymen in one platoon from different squads from having "served with" each other.

 John Gipson on BOR's No Spin Zone & Sean Hannity on Hannity and Colmes both nailed the Democrats talking robots tonight.  Would not let them slide on the "not on his boat" bs.  It was great!

 Why?  Remember.......the SBVT is about the truth, not about spin.
 
 Using nuances is Kerry's forte.  I say "tell it like it is".

				| Don't forget either, it was Kerry himself who first posted the picture of himself and the 19 other officers saying "they served together." _________________
