In fact, what do you expect from a guy who claimed under oath that he
raped,
pillaged, and burned, Genghis Khan style, whole villages, shot babies,
made
necklaces of human ears, and cut off fingers?

Funny thing is, he never caught any of that on the movie camera he had with
him to re-enact his heroic exploits.

“Mr. Memphis, believe me, it would be a lie if I didn’t tell you some years
back, Bob Lee had a problem with the bottle and had some wild times. He’s
always in pain, you know, because of the way he was hurt in the war. But I
believe Bob Lee has found himself in some way. All he wants from life is
freedom and to be left alone.”

“What about medals? Has he ever said anything about medals? Are medals
important to him?”

“To Bob Lee? Let me tell you something, son—were you in the war or
anything?”

“No sir, I wasn’t.”

“Well, son, the only people that are interested in medals are the ones that
are fixing to run for office some day. I went from one side of Burma to the
other with General Merrill’s Marauders in 1943 and 1944, and the only man I
ever saw who wanted a medal or cared about a medal later became the only
governor of Colorado to be impeached.

Wow! Sounds just like the job description for a polititian (regardless
of party affilliation)!

In fact, what do you expect from a guy who claimed under oath that he raped,
pillaged, and burned, Genghis Khan style, whole villages, shot babies, made
necklaces of human ears, and cut off fingers? Must be interesting to explain
that to your wife: "Well, we were young and out just having a little fun.
Boys will be boys, you know." But then he testifies under oath that he knew
all the other GIs were doing it, too. Such omniscience! A guy like that
might even order his minions to forge some documents discrediting his
political opponents, though it is more likely he expects them to come up
with stuff like that on their own.

Are you referring to this kind of rhetoric?




Back in February, President Bush sat down in the Oval Office for an
interview with Tim Russert and spoke about his service in the National
Guard. Bush told us, "I put in my time, proudly so." He said, "And I'm
telling you, I did my duty."

But now we know that Bush dishonored the Oval Office by lying to the
American people.

New investigations from multiple media sources have revealed the truth
about President Bush's service. New military documents show that Bush
disobeyed a direct order from his commander to take a flight physical
and "failed to perform to U.S. Air Force/Texas Air National Guard
standards" -- and was grounded as a result.

New evidence supports claims that Bush missed months of service and
that he never showed up for service with the Alabama National Guard.

New evidence shows that Bush received special treatment. His
supervisor wrote that he felt pressured from above to "sugar coat"
Bush's records.

And Ben Barnes, former Lt. Governor and State House Speaker of Texas,
has come forward to say that he pulled strings to get Bush a coveted
spot in the Guard, which directly contradicts Bush's claim that he
received no special treatment.
Only Bush Can Answer Questions

President Bush has a lot to answer for. Only he can clear up the
questions regarding the discrepancies in his service record, and he
owes the American people those answers. Here are just a few of the
questions Bush must answer.

* Why did George Bush say "I did my duty" when he missed months of
duty in 1972, 73 and 74?

* How did George Bush avoid getting called into active service for
missing months of duty in 1972, 73, and 74?

* Why did George Bush disobey a direct order to take his physical?

* What standard did George Bush fail to meet when he was grounded for
failing to perform at US Air Force/Texas Air National Guard Standards?

* Why did George Bush go above his commander's head to ensure a
favorable evaluation he had not earned?

* Why did George Bush say he received "no special treatment" when Ben
Barnes says he pulled strings to secure a Guard slot for him?

* Who asked Bush family friend Sidney Adger to get Bush a slot in the
Guard immediately after Bush graduated and at the height of the
Vietnam War?

* When will George Bush produce any credible witness who can attest
to his service in the Alabama Air National Guard?

Take Action

You can help us hold Bush accountable. Sign our petition to President
Bush and demand that he answer the American people's questions about
his Guard service.

you sure got that right. Liberalism is a mental disease. The libs are
destroying the country.

The god damn Dems are our biggest enemy. They believe in freedom

we can't fight back as they redistribute what we've worked for

Seems they preach and preach about freedom, but always do their best to

Stop with this garbage about the Democratic party. Those wanting to take
our freedoms and everything else from us come from both parties so cut the
crap and be prepared to defend those rights from assault no matter which
party they come from.

Well Pete I have defended the Constitution have you? VET USMC

Being a veteran does not prove you have defended the Constitution. Your
words tell a lot about you.
Are you so blinded by your politics and religion that you do not see the
danger of your viewpoint?

fighting in the armed forces does not necessarily equate to defending
the Constitution. The contents of the Constitution are not affected by
Americans fighting overseas. What ultimately impacts the Constitution
is what happens in peacetime here in the continental USA.

I saw this on a bumper sticker:

Under the Republicans, man exploits man. Under the Democrats, it is just the opposite.
