...with Bush's war record.

The Bush regime expects us to get all flustered everytime one of their supporters question us Kerry supporters about John Kerry's war record in Vietnam.

I've done all this research and realize that all of this anti-Kerry war record crap is all another well funded organization from right-wing neo-cons. They learned their lessons back in 2000 when Bush ran against another decorated Vietnam war veteran John McCain. Knowing that Bush could never compete with someone like McCain when it came to his war record, the Bush campaign strategists instead decided to pull an Atwater and question everything about McCain's record whether it was true or not. And what we got from this tactic is one of the most disgusting primaries in history when the Bush campaigned used this strategy to help pull a win for Bush in the state of South Carolina in the 2000 primaries. That primary helped turn the momentum around from McCain to Bush and ultimately gave Bush the nomination.

Well, once again the Bush regime faces the same exact issue with John Kerry. Decorated Vietnam War Veteran vs. a guy who got a free pass to the guard and then failed to show up. And in this tactic, the Bush regime knows it is better to get us Kerry supporters on the defense then to have us out there questioning Bush's dismal wartime record.

So please, everyone - do me a favor. When someone bad mouth's Kerry's record - don't even waste your time defending Kerry. Just roll off the list of what Bush did during his wartime record. The free pass to the national guard, the skipped physicals, the failure to even show up for such a cush job. And if they then bring up Bill Clinton - ask them if Bill is running. Take what they are doing and slam it right back into their faces.

And then walk away!

Nuff said
