Kicking Yang's ***** Snorting Fairy ***** ==> Kerry MUST be Kidding, right? |
Kerry MUST be Kidding, right?
This is oh so transparent. You've heard about that letter that John
Kerry sent to President Bush, haven't you? Listen to this: Kerry
wrote Bush saying "Over the last week you and your campaign have
initiated a widespread attack on my service in Vietnam, my decision to
speak out to end that war, and my commitment to the defense of this
nation." What B.S.
What prompted this letter? A statement from Georgia Senator Saxby
Chambless saying "When you have a 32-year history of voting to cut
defense programs and cut defense systems folks in Georgia are going to
look beyond what he says and look at his voting record."
No look again at what Chambliss said:
"When you have a 32-year history of voting to cut defense programs and
cut defense systems folks in Georgia are going to look beyond what he
says and look at his voting record."
And look again at what Kerry wrote to Bush:
"Over the last week you and your campaign have initiated a widespread
attack on my service in Vietnam, my decision to speak out to end that
war, and my commitment to the defense of this nation."
You did notice, didn't you, that Chambliss' statement made absolutely
no mention whatsoever of Kerry's service in Vietnam or his speaking out
against the war. Chambliss' statement was directed at Kerry's voting
record. Kerry knows it, and he knows that his voting record on defense
is indefensible. So ... the game plan here is to turn every single
criticism of Kerry's voting record in the U.S. Senate into a slam on
his service in Vietnam and his antiwar activities.
The Democrats want you to believe that if you go to Vietnam, suffer
three minor wounds, two of which don't even take you off the
battlefield, and then head back to the United States with four months
of Vietnam service under your belt, you are forever inoculated against
any charge that you have a weak voting record on national defense.
That's the Max Cleland approach. Cleland goes to Vietnam, suffers
greatly as a result of an accident that did not occur in battle, and
then becomes a United States Senator who believes that he can use his
Vietnam service as a protective cloak while voting repeatedly against
homeland security measures until government employee unions are
satisfied that they will be essentially running the show. If your
political opponent happens to mention this pandering to government
employee unions, you are assailing his patriotism.
If you have any rational and logical thought capabilities at all ... in
other words, if you don't vote Democratic .... you can easily see how
John Kerry formulated his game plan for seeking the presidency.
When Kerry first started dreaming of a run for the candidacy he knew
that he had some pretty tough things to overcome. His protests against
the Vietnam war were going to be somewhat of a problem at a time when
American soldiers are fighting terrorism abroad. Kerry knew that his
Vietnam protests problem would be compounded by his association with
Jane Fonda and the statements he made to congress about the actions of
American soldiers in Vietnam. He also knew he would have a problem
with that event staged for the media where he claimed to throw his
Vietnam medals over a fence at the Capitol. (It was later revealed
that Kerry actually kept his medals, but threw away the medals of
another Vietnam vet.).
Then there was Kerry's voting record in the Senate. It wasn't exactly
the voting record one would want to bring to a campaign at a time when
America is fighting a war against terrorism. Kerry has voted against
almost every new Pentagon weapons program since he was sworn in. He
voted against pushing Saddam out of Kuwait in 1991 and voted against
continued funding of our efforts in Iraq in 2003.
Antiwar protests --- an association with Jane Fonda --- slandering
American soldiers --- propping up Saddam --- an anti-military voting
record --- plus a record in Vietnam that isn't quite as gleaming as the
media portrays ... all campaign problems to be dealt with.
So ... here's the plan:
First you start bringing up your service in Vietnam in every single
campaign appearance. Every single time you open your mouth before a
group of people you mention that "Oh, by the way, I served in Vietnam."
After virtually every American with a television set knows full well
that you served in Vietnam, you send your myrmidons out to question
Bush's service in the National Guard. Democratic party hacks and
operatives are enlisted to use terms like "AWOL" and "deserter" in
describing Bush's service. All the while you pretend to take the high
road by staying above the fray, though you do make a public statement
that equates service in the National Guard with dodging the draft.
OK ... the stage is set. You are a Vietnam hero ... and Bush, having
hidden in the Air National Guard, is essentially a glorified draft
dodger. Now every single time your protests, your association with
Fonda, your lies about American soldiers in Vietnam, your strongly
anti-military voting record in the Senate, and your absurd idea that
terrorism is a law enforcement, not a military problem is brought up,
you can bellow that a man who didn't serve in Vietnam is challenging
the patriotism of a man who did.
Do you want to see the Kerry game plan in action? Just this weekend
Kerry told reporters "I don't know what it is that the Republicans who
didn't serve in any war have against those of us who are Democrats who
did."
See how easy it is? His anti-defense voting record means nothing. His
vote against continued funding for our troops in Iraq means nothing.
His vote against pushing Saddam out of Kuwait ..... all of this doesn't
matter because HE served in Vietnam and the people who are criticizing
his votes didn't.
Thankfully, the Bush campaign folks aren't going to be intimidated by
this "You can't criticize me, I served in Vietnam" tactic. Yesterday
the Bush campaign responded to Kerry's absurd and transparent letter:
"Our campaign is not questioning your patriotism or your military
service, but your votes and statements on issues now facing our
country. Senator Chambliss addressed your Senate record of voting
against the weapons systems that are winning the war on terror."
Just watch the campaign ... and see how well the Kerry strategy works.
The media will love it and will prop it up until they look ridiculous
doing so.
