THE point is being missed:Service vs. Lying Non-Service
Edited on Fri Sep-10-04 11:12 AM by Panda1
John Kerry SERVED in Vietnam. Smear campaigns headed by Republicans connected to Rove have besmirched Kerry's LEGITIMATE service in Vietnam. Chimpy DID NOT SERVE...he was AWOL from the TANG unit his daddy pulled strings to get him into and LIED about it.

I am of the Vietnam generation. WE helped shorten the war by protesting. I know boys who died. I know boys who avoided service.

THE POINT IS: Those who avoided service and then became money grubbing Chickenhawks and war profiteers are LYING and making money off attacking sovereign nations. The Vietnam generation AGAINST the war did NOT become Chickenhawks and we're just as anti-war as we were then. Thanks to protests the war was ended SOONER rather than later. The current lack of freedom of press has enabled the smear tactics to take hold and dishonor all Vietnam Veterans who served. Rove is guilty of smearing ALL veterans. HE smeared McCain using these same tactics. HE smeared Cleland using these same tactics. All lies lead back to Rover.....look up each and every name of Swifties and now the POW lying ad group...they ALL lead back to him. He, who never served, is at the root of ALL smears.

The Republicans lied and the ads from SwiftBoatLiars are PROVEN to be lies. Kerry did NOT extend anyone's tour of duty in Vietnam by joining HUNDREDS of Vietnam Vets in protesting a war where atrocities DID occur. Rove is a proven liar and smear whore. He isn't finished yet. It WILL get worse. His goal is to get his boy another false four years in OUR White House....at any cost.

These new ads from POWs who are claiming that Kerry alone was responsible for their 2 extra years in captivity are also LIES. More Rover smear tactics and the sheep are buying it. We need to pound the drum.....service vs. non-service; War Hawk vs. NON War Hawk.
NIXON AND KISSINGER et al extended the war....NOT the protesters. Those of us opposed to Vietnam helped to SHORTEN that war!

This isn't about who served and who didn't. It's about who pulled strings to LIE about getting OUT of serving and became WAR PROFITEER CHICKENHAWKS willing to send more of our men and women to die for oil when NONE OF THEM SERVED IN A WAR! FACT: Chimpy did NOT fulfill his obligations to the National Guard. Nobody has come forward but one Republican who saw him eating a sandwich and he had some dental work done.....and the Republicans claim that justifies an honorable discharge.

The rest of this is bullshit. The typewriter "diversion" is just that. A DIVERSION. Stay focused. The BFEE DID NOT SERVE IN ANY WARS. THEY ARE PROFITING FROM WAR! THE BFEE LIED.....BUSH LIED.
ROVE IS A PROVEN DIRTY SMEARER.

AGAIN:The typewriter is a diversion...don't let it distract from the FACT that nobody can show where Bush fulfilled ANY service other than having his teeth worked on. He did not serve and he lied. He is still lying. He is a liar now and he lied then. He got out of the National Guard on "technicalities" and Poppy's influence.

EYE ON THE BALL: Those who did not serve invaded a foreign nation under false pretenses (LIES) and will do ANYTHING to distract from the deaths occurring there now and the money they are making.

What happened to Afghanistan and the Saudis? They are successfully diverting all the attention away from the true culprits who have taken BACK power in Afghanistan. In the meantime, they are making money while killing thousands of innocent Iraqis who HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH 9/11. FOLLOW THE MONEY!



Osama who?

2. That won't work in time.
We have to keep the focus on the FACTS...we don't have time for a congressional investigation of any kind. Congress is run by Republicans. When would the "results" come out? 2012?

They are diverting our attention from the TRUTH. Bush didn't serve and LIED about it. BUSH is profiting from war. This is all about smears against Kerry who DID serve and making a nation of fear-filled nationalistic sheep vote for a CHICKENHAWK mis-administration.

Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11, remember Chimpy said he wanted Osama Bin Laden, the true culprit, DEAD OR ALIVE!!!

In the meantime we are killing thousands of Iraqis, we've lost over a thousand U.S. troops for a war over oil and Afghanistan is back in the hands of the Taliban. The BFEE has a "catastrophic success" in Iraq and it's only going to get worse.

FEAR...that's what they're using and getting away with. The "war on terror" is the same as the "war on drugs"....it ISN'T winnable. Not using these tactics.

FACT:Kerry served. Kerry didn't want to invade Iraq.
FACT:Bush didn't fulfill his TANG service requirements and got a "technical" honorable discharge. HE wanted to invade Iraq and IGNORED Al Qaeda. Deliberately.

FACT:This election is the most important one in our history and a typewriter is being used to divert attention from the WAR CRIMINALS who had a coup and "occupied" our White House.


Osama who?
