It is well documented that Kerry was assigned to relatively save duty to obtain "combat" experience, then used his contacts among high ranking Navy officers to manipulate his way out of that duty. There are a couple of things Bush-gashers are overlooking in their zeal to bash Bush. First, military aviation is not a "safe" occupation, in wartime or in peacetime. Ask anyone who's actually served. Second, that famous "Mission Accomplished" banner aboard the carrier where Bush landed in the S-3 has been used to ridicule Bush and the war effort. The "Mission Accomplished" referred to the ship's deployment. How many aircraft carrier deployments, in peacetime or in wartime, have been conducted without loss of life? The Ship's Company had every right to declare its mission accomplished, and would have done so had Bush been there or not. |
