2. Hey - Don't put down Pond Scum

Unlike SwiftVetsLiarsForBush, Pond Scum actually has a function in the ecology.

6. Was he talking about the actual vets that served in Viet Nam?
Does anyone (here or elsewhere) feel that the actual vets who are making their own statements about Kerry (not the O'Neill folks) should not be allowed to have their voices heard in the mainstream press?

7. What do you think of Queen?
You know that song that goes, "Another one bites the dust..."

Off topic, but just curious? :)

8. Of course they may be heard
But like with anyone else who makes public statements, we the public also have a right to hear the truth, not a pack of lies.

It's a simple enough standard. It's just too bad the self-styled Swift Boat Veterans can't quite live up to it, and so besmirch their own reputations in the process of trying to smear someone else.

9. Did they serve with Kerry ??
I'm a Nam vet and I think any Nam vet that supports George W Bush over John Kerry is a traitor. Yes, we are all entitled t our opinions.

10. Come on. You can't point to one post where ANYONE states that.
You can't compare regular vets with their own beliefs to the Swift Vets for Bush using lies to make a case against Kerry.

If they were honest and said they are just still mad at him for turning against the war when he came back from Nam, that would be one thing, but, instead they twist themselves into pretzels trying to impugn his service and integrity while supporting a man who went AWOL from a cushy National Guard job.

11. Only if they explain any earlier positive statements
about Kerry, say exactly when they flip-flopped and how much money was required.

13. Interesting that we're not allowed to hear the opinions of people

actually serving right now, ---if they oppose the President, or Rumsfeld, et. al. Much less see their coffins when they come home as casualties.

14. When they lie, they should be called on it and the swifties
are liars. Maybe liar is extreme, maybe they stretch the truth to fit their twisted interpetation of the facts and the other 10 fellows that actually served on the swift votes with Kerry and under his command are not being honest. NOT!

Bottom line, Kerry volunteered and served in VietNam.

The clown-n-chief was appointed to 2nd Lt because his daddy was important and he did not want to go overseas. He didn't even finish his committment - he was AWOL.

17. Like Teresa said, 'John Kerry Showed Up'
John Kerry reporting for Duty....little bush hiding under his mother's skirt dead drunk.

16. Pond Scum...
Edited on Tue Aug-10-04 05:00 PM by NervousRex
I like the analogy...but the image I've always had in my mind concerning this squadron of Bush-butt suction cups has always been that of the crew manning the Tidy-Bowl Man's "swift-boat"....which is what I thought they meant when they said they were "in the shit".
