1. Kerry and Max Cleland deserve Bush?

and Wes Clark?

That brush is very, very broad.

4. I know what you mean
The media elevates these guys into some kind of sainthood. the truth is, the stuff that Kerry said later about raping, cutting off ears, etc. no one talks about, because everybody knows it happened. He wasn't making anything up.

6. I don't deserve Bush.
I served in GWI as a M1A1 tank gunner. When scared Iraqi's surrendered (tried to. We couldn't take them) to us and said fearfully "George Bush!" with a fearful smile and a hopeful thumbs up my loader said:


FUCKA GEORGE BUSH!


I concurred, as did the driver. The LT had no objection. We gave them water and some MREs and went on.

I thank the gods I didn't have to serve/suffer under the dim son.

7. No one deserves Bush. Least of all vets. Hard to stomach all the
crap going on. I think people need to take a deep breath and think about what they're saying. Don't need to be dividing ourselves like the repugs are.

10. Not this Vet!
If Bush has been prez during Vietnam, I would have avoided the draft and moved to Canada. Johnson and Nixon were bad, but at least they had a brain.
