Kerry to Bush & Smearboat hacks: "Bring it on"
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&e=2&u=/ap/20040819/ap_on_el_pr/kerry_war_critic

Kerry said, "Of course, the president keeps telling people he would never question my service to our country. Instead, he watches as a Republican-funded attack group does just that. Well, if he wants to have a debate about our service in Vietnam, here is my answer: 'Bring it on.'"

Kerry's comments drew boisterous cheers from members of the union that had endorsed him last year at a time his candidacy was struggling.

Kerry's response came as The Washington Post reported that a Vietnam veteran who claims Kerry lied about being under fire during a Mekong Delta engagement that won Kerry a Bronze Star was under constant fire himself during the same skirmish according to the man's own medal citation.

5. I wish he had done it
much sooner - immediately after it was released.

Kerry shouldn't take this shit from these liars.

2. You know, sometimes...
...I think I underestimate Kerry's ability to fight back against right-wing lies, but now I feel very confident about him. Way to go, Kerry!!!!!!!!!

4. John did good on this one
I like his challenge to shrub to "bring it on"
Will shrub debate him? Not a chance, because not only is
shrub the biggest liar in the history of the executive branch,
he is the biggest COWARD in the history of the executive branch.
Shrub is a miserable failure as pResident.

6. Bring it on...
Did you notice his eyes when he said this? Lethal weapons.

If I were Bush, I'd be mighty scared right about now.
