"Leadfoot" wrote in message news:yan4d.333258$Oi.89988@fed1read04... Shrub has certainly shown over the last 4 years he is unqualified. I'm not afraid to say Shrub is unqualified. Actually, Bush has shown that he is qualified. Kerry is an unknown to some degree. As a Senator he opposed adequately defending the US. He has committed numerous firing offenses for a president. Such as? Lets replace him and his team with someone else. On defense matters the Bush team has done an excellent job. It's his domestic agenda that is troublesome. |

Correct.
Leadfoot, however, appears to have a reading comprehension problem. The USN IG was very careful to specifically NOT endorse kerry's medals NOR indict the process in place. The only way to do that, and not lie to the public, was to say that an investigation was not warranted (because the administrative side [minor correction] of hte procedures in place at the time were follwoed." The IG specifically did NOT comment on either the process or the specific people and circumstances that led to the approval of the medals. Pretty much not the same thing as saying "kerry deserved his medals" or "kerry was exonerated" or anything of the sort. Steve Swartz "Steve Hix" wrote in message ... In article , "Leslie Swartz" wrote: Hey Leadfoot: Remove the "spin," and what the USN IG said was NOT "an investigation has determined that kerry earned his medals" BUT INSTEAD "their appears to be insufficient reason for an investigation" Bi-i-i-i-i-i-ig difference, homes. It looked to me to be more on the order of "the process in place at the time seems to have been followed...that's all we're saying". |

Find me a vote where it was his vote that was critical. He has committed numerous firing offenses for a president. Such as? Invading Iraq not only needlessly but diverting assets away from are real enemy al-queda. Not being prepared for the occupation of Iraq. These guys have been planning this since 1998. Tora Bora: Using Afghan troops. You think maybe someone who had been to Vietnam might have known better? Lets replace him and his team with someone else. On defense matters the Bush team has done an excellent job. Invading Afghanistan was done very well. The iraq diversion was were he fell apart. It's his domestic agenda that is troublesome. |

That alone doesn't make him qualified. What is his political record? Why does he slam Bush instead of telling us about his OWN glowing achievemnts? Why is he unqualified to defend the US? Show me where I said kerry is unqualified. So is Mr Kerry qualified or not? Doesn't mean your going to vote for him, just is he qualified to be CINC? Give you a hint, Gen Franks says he is even if he is going to vote for bush. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired So you can't back up your assertion I said kerry is unqualified? Where did I say that you said kerry is unqualified? And why are you so afraid to go on record and say if Kerry is qualified or not" Shrub has certainly shown over the last 4 years he is unqualified. I'm not afraid to say Shrub is unqualified. He has committed numerous firing offenses for a president. Lets replace him and his team with someone else. Look above and see where you wrote "Why is he unqualified to defend the US?" which implies I said he was unqualified. Aw poor little baby, were your feelings hurt? I guess I shouldn't have expected a mature response from you. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |

Invading Iraq not only needlessly but diverting assets away from are real enemy al-queda. There was no needless invasion of Iraq, the war on terror was never limited to al Queda. No wmd and no constructive links to al-queda. For that matter they can't even show any terror attack was planned by Iraq agasinst the US. Not being prepared for the occupation of Iraq. Not everything in war goes according to plan. Lame excuse They've wanted this war since 1998, they've had contol since 2001, they didn't plan ahead These guys have been planning this since 1998. Bush has been president since only 2001. http://www.newamericancentury.org/iraqclintonletter.htm Notice the names at the bottom. On defense matters the Bush team has done an excellent job. Invading Afghanistan was done very well. The iraq diversion was were he fell apart. Iraq was not a diversion and nothing has fallen apart. What about the NIE that bush dissed that predict civil war? |
