Oh wow!, another new development in the all-important story of what our candidates did during the Vietnam era! That reminds me, has the number of poor Americans, and the number of Americans without health insurance, gone up or down during the past 3 1/2 years? Anybody know? |

It's almost as high as it was in 1998, AG. What does that have to do with the Presidency? (hint: almost nothing) |

Probably the same direction as the number of insured Americans has gone... |

All of which has nothing to do with the topic.
Be nice if we could all stay on it, wouldn`t it?

Hey, McQ, when are you going to bash Fox for making up quotes about Kerry? Where is the outrage McQ? We're waiting.
Compare the treatment in the MSM between rathergate and Camerongate.
Can we finally put the myth of liberal-bias to sleep?
The hypocrisy. |

Fox retracted and appologized to its viewers and Kerry for the quotes.
When is CBS, Rather and the DNC going to do the same.
All I remember is that quote, "Fake but accurate" coming from those bozos.
ooh, you are right, such hypocrisy
Again the response: Look Space Aliens!! |

Space aliens? Ok, I promise not to comment on Camerongate until McQ posts about it. Well, we're waiting.
As for apologizing, big deal. The problem is that it is meaningless because Fox is continuing to lie. They said the story ran because Cameron was fatigued.
Huh? What? First, since when does fatigue cause one to tell flagrant lies? Second, Cameron does not post his own stories. There were others in on the process. Were they all fatigued too?
An apology accompanied couched in a lie is no apology at all. It is a lie.

Character counts; just another of the numerous examples of Kerrys lack of character. Im seared I tell ya Seared. If you hold Rather down mk I'll give him the pills. |

Well, we're waiting for you to say similiar things about CBS and rather.
You should post them on your blog.
Space Aliens is because you guys were trying (as usual) to change the subject.
The subject was Kerry and his mal truths. |

Hey, MKUltra, when is AP going to apologize for making up audience reactions to the announcement of Clinton's hospitalization? You loved repeating their lie.
By the way, how many Afghans are registered to vote? |

One thing I am curious about is how leftists can justify this article by the Guardian.
It says that there is no problem in Sudan and that this is all a US ploy against the Sudanese government.
Mkultra, Danny boy, what do you think?
Is the guardian doing a dis-service? |

RE: health insurance...the PERCENTAGE of citizens lacking h.c. has gone up. According to the Kansas City Star (10/3/2004):
"Some 45 million Americans or 15.6 percent of the population do not have health-care insurance, according to a recent U.S. census report. Although that may be a temporary situation for many, the percentage of uninsured has increased from 14.2 percent just four years ago. Even Americans who have coverage are seeing double-digit premium increases, often with reduced coverage."
If Bush were a REAL leader, he would have instituted a nat'l healthcare system! (sort of a Nixon-in-china thing...you know, with the Repubs controlling all 3 branches of government). Even my Repub dad (a small bus. owner) thinks we should have nat'l h.c. because he sees firsthand how his business is hurt by our broken system. Of course, he also think that instituting nat'l healthcare just cannot be done. But I say: don't tell me that we (as a country) cannot figure this one out, with all of our mind-power. It's a moral issue to me, and although the Repubs act like they have a monopoly on morality, I'd say they really have failed us on this huge issue. Yes, I know that Clinton, Bush, Reagan, etc. also did nothing, but then again, I didn't call them great leaders either.
If Bush were a LEADER like some delusional people think he is, this problem would be on its way to being solved.
Can Kerry do it? I doubt it, but we have to at least give him a chance. Bush had his chance, and he blew it. |

RE: Fox news...the left fell right into their trap! It's really very clever...post a fake story 'accidentally,' then apologize and quickly take it down. But the story is pounced on by the left, who publicize and distribute it. They just can't help themselves - "Look, proof that Fox is partisan!" End result: the story is widely circulated, and everyone laughs at the (obviously, to me anyway) fictional Kerry quotes. (I thought they were pretty funny, too..) Fox News was just being Fox News. Nobody *really* believes they're "fair and accurate" or whatever ..even that slogan is just a device to raise the left's hackles! |

I would also note that the uninsured level was 16.3% in 1998. At the height of the 90s boom. So, let's not go pretending this is some Bush-related problem. |

"Mkultra, Danny boy, what do you think?"
Don't get me into this mess. I don't believe in media bias whether on the right or left. Like someone posted before, if you look you'll find stories that'll support your side.
But to throw some gas in the fire...McQ, why still bothering w/ this story? You're trying to discredit someone who actually had the balls to go, period. Whether he was a mile away, five miles, whatever, the dude went. Speaks volumes over Bush's service. And yet, you're okay with his, your WAR president. I think we're in the final days of this godforsaken administration. You can tell, the postings and blogs are losing content, the partisanship is at full throttle. |

I know a lot of people who love to complain about snow during winter, but never think to move to warmer areas. I know a lot of people who think we should have a national healthcare system who've never lived under one.
Average guy, why don't you move to Canada or Great Britain long enough to experience a major medical problem, and THEN decide whether you want that kind of system here.
Kerry, with 20 years in the Senate, has had far more opportunity to craft such legislation, but so far has been unable to do so. What makes you think he deserves to be President? |

AG, the reason people care about what John Kerry did vs what he claims he did in Vietnam is that HE has held up his service in Vietnam as one of the key character-building experiences he has had that the President has not. So, when people surface questioning or refuting his exploits, it becomes a character issue. Character IS a relevant issue when selecting a President, right? What amazes me is that in approx 120 days of service in Vietnam, John Kerry managed to become one of the most decorated veterans of the war. I am truly not a conspiracy theorist, but consider this . . . John Kerry goes to Vietnam; he quickly realizes it's a nightmare and wants BADLY to get the hell out of there. He's smart enough to know about the 3-Purple-Hearts-ticket-home clause and manages to expediently capitalize on that provision, after which he goes home and launches his anti-war campaign with greater political aspirations in the works. The only problem is if the Swifties are NOT some Republican puppet liars but are telling the truth about what really happened. |

Over the last 40 years, the United States has bombed Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Panama, Grenada, Sudan, Libya, Iraq, and Yugoslavia. We have killed literally millions of human beings in small impoverished third world countries who were no threat to us. |
