if it was fox news and something about kerry people would be demanding apologies and that fox be taken off the air, and there'd be 996 thread on GFY bashing bush for funding fox news, demanding his resignation.

No. I'm afraid my MP3's don't include this news clip you're talking about.
Also my GFY news seem to be malfunctioning, I can't understand the data I'm receiving.
CBS News has documents, memos, from Bush's commander in the National Guard in which he sat out the Vietnam war which say Bush Jr. shirked his responsibilities and used his father's political influence.
the controversy is over the authenticity of the memos, the Republicans are saying they are fakes. CBS stands by their authenticity.

The new papers may or may not be fakes but the fact remains:
Bush did shirk his responsibilities, or as the military calls it went AWOL, when he was in the National Guard.
People did him favors to get in the National Guard when others were more qualified.
He did not perform his duties when the country was at a time of war.
Those new papers, even if real, added nothing to what was already known.

You know what is "funny", is that a lot of the people bashing Bush for his military record, are the same people that said they would move to Canada, or wherever, if there was a draft.
Fucking hypocrits.
I'm not defending Bush, but I'm certainly not going to call someone that spent 40 some odd days in Vietnam and recommended himself for medals, only to throw them in the dirt, (then later pick them up, polish them and have them vacuum sealed for use during his future political career) a hero neither.

yes please im confused.
are you talking about the swift vets ad that was on fox today?
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.
How dense are you exactly? The media made a bigger deal about the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth", who were proven liars. This is proof of a serious crime Bush committed, and it won't get 1/10th of the air time.

He was commander of a swift boat for four month but lets not let a little thing like facts get in the way.
He was against a stupid war and tried to stop it to save more people from getting killed. Wow.
And where was our "war president" at that time. He could not even be bothered to show up for an assignment to guard the Gulf of Mexico against the Viet Cong.
And Dick "go fuck yourself" Cheney. He got 5 deferments because "I had other priorities in the '60s than military service."

Let's see Kerry fought and killed the enemy and the only enemy bush has killed are the animals that he hunts... He's a pussy and Kerry is a man... People get after him for being against the war and that means he was against his fellow soldiers right? Fuck no you retards if you think that. He tried to save more lives and he has saved more lives than bush ever thought about...
Originally posted by Corona Was there a point to your post besides your lie about his length of service?
I never said anything about his length of service, just his time in Vietnam. And it wasn't a lie, I was recalling from my memory, which, if wrong, was wrong. Just like most of your assumptions. Regardless, there is little difference between 1 1/2 months and 4 months.
I don't recall anyone saying that Kerry is a "hero" but he did go to war for his country and got shot at and his opponents did not.
I don't recall anyone saying he was either, I merely stated I wasn't defeding Bush, nor approving Kerry.
Your upset that Kerry volunteered to fight in a war for his country.
No, I'm not. I live in the same country and am a veteran myself.
When he found out if was a bunch of bullshit he became disillusioned with the war and the government leaders that were leading it.
Wait, He became disillusioned? So he IS wrong? I think what you meant is that he changed his feelings / opionions of the war. That is fine, I can respect that. But to this day he flip flops more than the stations on my TV during football games on Sunday.
So what is the problem?
My problem was with the hypocriscy of people slamming Bush for his military service when they themselves stated they would run if there was a draft. If you haven't, then this thread wasn't even meant for you.
