Bush totally had my vote this year. I didn't see any big difference between him and Kerry. Nothing worth changing presidents over. But after this week, I have changed my mind!
This week the Republican party started attacking Kerry because he "might" have done bad stuff with his war medals. He really wasn't pro-Vietnam war at the time, and he may have done stuff to his medals, as a means of protesting the war. Apparently the Republicans don't like this, and they are using it as political fodder to make Kerry look unpatriotic and unAmerican, and almost as bad as a draft dodger.......
These Republican tactics are absolutely deplorable! How dare they even go after a man who was actually there! This is an American who WILLINGLY, went to a place where there were bullets flying! Real live ammo!!! Now I know this is no where as cool as flying fighter plains over Texas during a war, or as cool as wearing a flight suit after a war and showing up on the deck of an aircraft carrier. Trust me, I know what Kerry did is no way as cool as what Bush did. I mean Kerry was around live ammo, while Bush was flying over cow patties in texas. But still, Kerry actually went to WAR! WILLINGLY!
Does Kerry waffle on policies? YES! Does Kerry support pro-choice? YES! Does Kerry support raising taxes? Probably. But that is no where as near as deplorable as attacking someone who served their country willingly, and went to war!
So why am I not voting for Bush? Because he belongs to a party that thinks it's all right to smear a man who went to war for this country! They can smear all his bad policies all they want, but when they start attacking his patriotism, in the manner they are doing it. In light of the fact he actually WENT! All I can say is PITY on the Republicans. That is a deplorable party that can attack a man like Kerry in the way they are doing it. Kerry served our country with HONOR! He willingly saw combat. He EARNED medals. And to turn around and attack him and make him look unpatriotic...?!! Shame on the Republicans! How can anyone support a party that treats our veterans like that? I pray to God none of our Iraqi freedom soldiers ever go into politics and run against the republicans. The honor they show in serving our country will be smeared as bad as they are doing to Kerry. Frankly, no one who belongs to a party that treats a real war hero like this, they should in no way be elected to the highest office in our land. If Bush had any real honor he would leave the Republican party NOW!
Kerry waffles, just like any politician, but he served this country with honor. He went when many did not want to go. He wasn't in some non combat role like Gore or Bush. He was in the heat of action! Did he say controversial stuff when he came home after the war? YUP, he sure DID! Does that make him unpatriotic? Does that make him an American hater? Does that make him a Jane Fonda liberal? NO! Why? Cuz he actually WENT! Kerry would be unpatriotic if he hadn't of come home and spoke out! He saw what his fellow Americans were doing over there, and he spoke up! That is very honorable in my book! Did he deface his medals? Lets say that he did.. Let's say he took all his medals, and burried them in cow manure, and lit them on fire, then burned an American flag, and wiped a pigs butt with it. Does that make him unpatriotic? NO!!!!!!!! Why? Because he willingly saw combat, and dodged bullets. He isn't unpatriotic one bit! Protesting in any manner as a means to save Americans lives, is frankly the MOST patriotic thing one an do! If burning his ribbons and medals saved Americans lives, or was done with an intent to save lives, I say that's one patriotic man............
