This unfortunately is my other huge problem with Kerry and why some people are so in favor of him. It seems lots of people - not necessarily you liz - refer to Kerry's military experience, his knowledge of what it's like to "send men to death," etc. But that's an awfully short-sighted way of voting for the leader of the nation.lizard said:not particularly...but there's one thing I do know...Bush is a pansy who checked the box "I do not volunteer for Vietnam", after the military spent hundreds of thousands training him to fly jets...some people object to kerry's actions when he came back, but he waxed by most accounts at least 30 godless communist bastards.
Yes, Iraq and global issues are a big deal right NOW. But what about everything else that's important? Suppose we vote Kerry into the White House, and the Iraq war fizzles out. Then what? They we have a military veteran with no clue about how to fix the nation's domestic problems, right? Not that Bush does, but I'm just saying. I can't just vote for change for change's sake. That's a terrible way to go IMO.
