My favorite defense of Bush's "service" came from a guy who reminded us that the jets Bush was flying--were they F-102's or 106's?--were pretty dangerous...further proving W's unparalleled bravery.Capt. Tex said:Bush did serve his country with dignity.
Hey, I recognize that insignia. I was in the 6th.bart said:I spent a year and a half in Central America as a "reservist".
I guess the problem I have with this whole thread is the idea that if a politician served, then they are better qualified on military issues.
This is clearly not the case. I have no time for any politician that does not support going after terrorists, the states that sponsor them or have sponsored them or will sponsor them. The fact that Bush will do exactly that gets him my vote. The fact that all the democrats will lay down and toady up[ to the allies of this countries attackers means they will not get my vote, plain and simple.
The dems may have served at one time and that is great, thank you for your service. My question is why has military spending declined in every dem administration since LBJ? Why were attacks against national interests allowed to go with no serious response?
Maybe there is philosophical disagreement over how to deal with violence. I believe you meet it with such resounding force and violence that is almost outside all believability that leaves the attacker wondering what they were thinking messing with you in the first place. I think you will find alot of Al Qaeda leaders in that category at Gitmo these days.

It is not about me, me, me...it is all about them, them, them! You know, those folks that have been and are still in harms way to make your life comfortable and secure.

For the rest of us...take pride in what you have accomplished, active, reserve or guard...it is worth it, regardless of what the couch potatoes think...they know not of what they speak. Forgive them!
