I for one am not a Bush supporter ,but you can bet your a-- im a kerry basher. There are alot of problems with bush, but being a lying, treacherous trader to his country is not one of them.I clearly remember john fonda kerry lying about our men and women fighting in nam,while half the people with him never wore the cloth of service. Now that he wants to be president and that means he will be in charge of our military,I can no longer let my feelings of 30 years ago stay repressed in my body. I will work as hard as I can to never let this sack of sh-- destroy this country. This registered dem. will pull the Rep. ticket all the way down the line to keep all john fonda kerrys friends out of office. NEVER FORGET,NEVER FORGIVE Evil or Very Mad Twisted Evil

At the risk of being called a troll again by a moderator, I want to explain my views. I understand as was stated by the Moderator that this is an Anti-Kerry site. I however, want to point out that if one were to read what is posted on this site, one would think that 90% of all Veterans are against Kerry. While I'll admit we are in the minority, this is not at all accurate.

I do not agree with the War on Iraq... (Our actions in Afghanistan however, were another matter) On Iraq, Bush made a mistake, he had false information and instead of admitting his mistake, and admitting that his administration was already looking for a way to start it up again with Iraq, he changes his comments on why we went to war in the first place.

If Saddam was a suspected drug dealer, living in an apartment complex, and the police had a warrent to search the apartment for drugs, found none, but found child pornography instead, Saddam would walk due to unlawful search and seisure if arrested for that. Does that mean that Saddam is a good guy? NO....but Might doesn't make Right.... And there have to be some common sense rules. We are seen as the bullies now, not the protecters. I like being a protecter better.

When it comes to Politicians, I really don't like them all, and I will not paint any candidate, that I support or not, lilly white. However, I feel that this entire site is doing just that with Bush. Maybe I have missed some material somewhere on it that admits Bush is not completely innocent, however I haven't found it yet. I know before you say it that if I go to Anti-Bush sites, I won't find anything negative about Kerry, however, as a Veteran, someone who served his country proudly, I guess I just expected more.

Thanks for listening, and I do enjoy discussing (not arguing) politics with anyone. I always try to listen to their views and understand where they are coming from. Please try to do the same.


The media won't seek the truth about Kerry because too many journalists are highly partisan Democrats who won't mention anything negative about Kerry unless forced to do so.

Incidentally the only time I ever voted for a Bush was in 1988. I voted for Nader in 2000 because neither major party candidate gave me a reason to vote for him. I would have voted for John McCain but he didn't get the nomination. I will vote for President Bush this year.
