I also find it ironic that the same man who now says "I was a Lt. in the vietnam war" was actively protesting the war he was fighting to win, while he was in the service. Not to mention they have the picture of him and Hanoi Jane at the same fucking rally. Just the shear fact that Kerry rallied with that bitch he should not be elected.
Anyhow its amazing that when Matt Drudge a reporter known to stretch the truth comes up with something like this he is a joke, yet the BBC can continuously make shit up and no one says a word. Only recently has anything even been done about the BBC. Take all news reported with a grain of salt, read it , then research some more and form your own opinion.

OH I could agree with you on alot of this.
Our news has turned into tabloid-gossip mongering. Pros know how to spin that. People love gossip. News had to accomodate or lose readership.
In the old days if you didn't have 3 verfiable sources it wouldn't hit print.
That's slacked off so much over the past 20+ years thanks to Rupert Murdoch. UK press for the most part. Their sales skyrocket with the latest gossip.
In Drudge's case he brings up news no one will tackle. Jeff Rense and a few others do as well. Usually months or even years before the mainstream.
In this case we see both Bush and Kerry getting hit with gossip. When both are asked to defend themselves they use sometimes similar means. Yet when the public makes up their minds it don't matter if you tied them to a lie detector.
As for Bush's military record there's no telling where he was or what he had to do. Military records are never exact. Guys are sent on certain maneuvers, training etc. that aren't supposed to be logged. Missions or surveillance. Bush as a pilot and political intrigue with big ties to the intelligence community only had to say he was on special assignments and that was that. It's nobody's business where he was unless he was committing some crime or something.
Pilots are a different breed. They often have to consult and test and dig through machinery to troubleshoot. Most of that classified. It's obvious he trained and did whatever but trying to get all the nuts and bolts ain't gonna work here. If he hadn't trained he wouldn't have been allowed to fly multi-million dollar aircraft and do million dollar training. Plain and simple.
As for Kerry, he said he didn't, she said she didn't. Unless someone comes up with something solid to the contrary everything else is just speculative bs.
