I think Bush is toast. Kerry I think, won the Medal of Honor, a service record doesn't get any better then that. The fact that he opposed the war is not a big deal since very few supported LBJ's war that LBJ refused to fight to win. Even since Truman, we've stopped fighting wars to win them. Look at Iraq today, we should have 300,000 troops on the groud and they should be blowing away any and all resistance. War is not nice, war is about killing your enemy. Once the enemy is dead then you can be nice. Anyway Bush is going to get ripped to pieces from the left over the budget deficet, jobs, trade and the Iraq war. He is going to get ripped to pieces from the right over new entitlements, pork barrel spending, CFR, pariot Act, NEA and amnesty. His militray record is the least of his worries.

I think this guy might actually have a few functioning brain cells, because except for the insane stuff he said about war, I can't find anything wrong. Things aren't looking good for the national mental midget.

1. I don't agree with what he said on the war...
Because I don't think that we should've gone in the first place but his opinion is shared by a lot of those who don't like Bush.

11. militray was my favorite!
anyway, I found some good posts there yesterday:

"...I'm not saying Bush is going to lose, I think he's going to win. It's just not going to be easy, because IMHO he's the most polarizing figure to his enemies in the history of the republic, and his enemies ... which I'd imagine, in this divided country, would be a solid 45 percent of the electorate ... will crawl naked over broken glass to vote against him. What we felt toward Clinton, what the left felt toward Nixon is nothing compared to what Bush's enemies today feel toward him."

This guy gets it!!!

6. A few comments:
It is a mistake, regardless of their political leanings,
to view all people of different beliefs as "all the same".
We all do this because it is part of de-humanising the
opposition.

I've "lurked" at Freerepublic for over four years now
and there are (or at least there used to be) a wide
assortment of people from the low I.Q. followers to
the educated and wealthy people "in the know".

This writer's opinion about war is not about the Iraq war
but all war.
He is correct; war is a very nasty and serious business that
should not be entered into lightly.
When you do make the decision to fight, it should be all-out
until your opponent is completely vanquished.

To give this cabal in D.C. a resounding defeat, we must hold back
on the "I told you so" line that we all feel.
We need to accept people who now see the error of their ways
and join with them to send Bush* and his gang out of Washington and
(I hope) into a court to answer for their crimes.
