All the Bushies can do is smear. Defending
their hero's record is beyond them. Well nigh
impossible, come to think of it..........

Not only can't they defend Dubya's record as (p)resident, but they throw up
anything they can find to blow smoke up the asses of the electorate to divert
attention from this God-awful presidency.

I can remember many on the Left questioning Bush's motives with respect
to the war, his alcoholism, gaps in his service in the Nationa Guard,
WMD, invasion of Iraq, as they defend this as a right to question the
actions of the President, as being "American".

question Kerry's actions, and somehow this is wrong.

Be sure that the President is behind these charges about Kerry's service
before you implicate the President.

President's motives, then others can question Kerry's motives too

Try to put things in balance.

I am proud to say I voted for McCain in the 2000 primary.

Other than his support of president *****, McCain could be my president

McCain: Hanoi Hilton Jailers Used Kerry Speech Against Us

Sen. John McCain attacked a group of Vietnam veterans on Thursday for
their appearance in a campaign ad condemning Sen. John Kerry for
betraying his fellow soldiers, calling the commercial "dishonest and
dishonorable."

But McCain himself complained about Kerry-led anti-war protests when
he was released from the infamous "Hanoi Hilton" 31 years ago.

McCain does not actually complain about Kerry at all in the quotes you
provide. Doesn't mention Kerry once even. Not one single time.

In piece he wrote for the May 14, 1973, issue of U.S. News & World
Report, the POW-turned-senator charged that testimony by Kerry and
others before J. William Fulbright's Senate Foreign Relations
Committee was "the most effective propaganda [my North Vietnamese
captors] had to use against us."

"They used Senator Fulbright a great deal," McCain wrote - a reference
to Kerry's 1971 Senate testimony that U.S. soldiers were committing
war crimes in Vietnam as a matter of course.

Um, no. It's a reference to Fulbright's committee's investigation of
which Kerry's testimony was a part.

He said Kerry political ally Sen. Ted Kennedy was "quoted again and
again" by his jailers at the Hanoi Hilton.

Ted Kennedy was quoted. And since he and Kerry come from the same state,
this some how implicates Kerry? So because Ted Bundy and George W. Bush
both come from Texas, Bush is a serial murder?

"Clark Clifford was another [North Vietnamese] favorite," McCain told
U.S. News, "right after he had been Secretary of Defense under
President Johnson."

Another person who is not John Kerry.

"When Ramsey Clark came over [my jailers] thought that was a great
coup for their cause," he recalled. Months earlier, Sen. Kerry had
appeared with Clark at the April 1971 Washington, D.C., anti-war
protest that showcased his testimony before the Fulbright Committee.

Another "guilt by association." Ronald Reagan once met with Ramsey Clark
too. Guess that makes Reagan a traitor too.

"All through this period," McCain told U.S. News, his captors were
"bombarding us with anti-war quotes from people in high places back in
Washington. This was the most effective propaganda they had to use
against us."

Kerry was in a high place?

McCain biographer Paul Alexander chronicled the Arizona Republican's
anger toward Kerry during their early careers in the Senate together.

"For many years McCain held Kerry's actions against him because, while
McCain was a POW in the Hanoi Hilton, Kerry was organizing veterans
back home in the U.S. to protest the war."

In his 2002 book, "Man of the People: The Life of John McCain,"
Alexander says that the two Vietnam vets finally reconciled in the
early 1990s after having "a long - and at times emotional -
conversation about Vietnam" during a mutual trip to Kuwait.

Seems like McCain came to terms with it. I think a lot of other people
need to also.
