If service in Viet Nam was important for Clinton, why is it not important

[slojim240]

in this election. The Republicans made it a big, big issue that Clinton received a deferement (called him a draft dodger eventhough he was not). Now service in Viet Nam is not important even to Dems since evidence is now coming out about Bush's lies and preferential treatment to keep his butt out of Viet Nam. It's dirty when the smear is against Bush but just mere examination of fitness for leadership if the smear is against Kerry.

1. Silly Rabbit! Consistency is for Democrats!

2. They are just really good at acting outraged and offended

by criticism of their boy while hurling shit at the other side by the truckful.

It works too....sigh....

3. this is something i have a tought ime understanding.

4. it is far more honorable to have daddy get you into theNG

to use millions of tax dollars in flight training and then skip out, I suppose.

5. What's good for Clinton is NOT GOOD for Bush* and Cheney!

Did you hear about the time GHW Bush attack Lloyd Bentsen for getting Bentsen's son into the TANG through preferential treatment?
It's on my blog (with the link):

As long as Ben Barnes kept quite, the Bushmen could behave shamelessly!

6. for 8 years they called Bill a draft dodger

and then they went and installed a DESERTER, and we're supposed to overlook it and concentrate on Kerry's treasonous fullfillment of his duties.

7. George H Bush was a veteran. Clinton's wasn't.

What ever the Republican was, and the Democrat wasn't, becomes very important to the media.

8. The Repubs new answer:

Bush has been a STRONG Commander-in-Chief, so Vietnam does not matter.

9. Bush has screwed up everything he's ever touched. Why is it that the

chaos in Iraq and Afganistan is invisible to those idiots? If what is going on is their definition of winning, what the hell would be their definition of losing?
