It's also worth noting that George Elliott, one of the main guys interviewed for "Unfit for Command", has since retracted his statements.

"Archeologists near mount Sinai have discovered what is believed to be a missing page from the Bible. The page is currently being carbon dated in Bonn. If genuine, it belongs at the beginning of the Bible and is believed to read, 'To my darling Candy. All characters portrayed within this book are fictitous, and any resemblance to persons living or dead is purely coincidental.' The page has been universally condemned by church leaders."

Re: Kerry wimped!
Crash, Kerry likely thought he had what it took to be a swiftboat officer, but by his wimpin out, it only supports the claims of the Vets, that he used minor scrapes (cashed in these chips)to get out of service.
So... was the guy who decides whether or not you get sent home just out taking a whiz the whole time Kerry was in service?
Last I heard, it was kind of hard to leave the army, especially during wartime. They don't let you go on the basis of having an owie.
Seriously, are there any vets around who could tell us how many people Kerry would have to bamboozle in order to pass off a minor scrape as a reason to be discharged from service? (Especially when you throw not one, not two, but three purple hearts into the mix?)
Because as it stands, this whole "wimpin" theory sounds like a good reason to break out the tin foil hats.

Re: Kerry wimped!
I don't believe Kerry was discharged from the service, it was his ticket out of Vietnam, to a cushy States job.
Okay, but either way... he was taken out of active combat? So once again, was the guy who sizes up injuries just out taking a whiz?

Re: Kerry accused of heresy,
Its obvious that Kerry is pro abortion, and that he lied saying he is against abortion
I am against you saying stupid things.
I would never, ever try to make it illegal for you to say stupid things.
Try and understand how these two statements do not contradict one another.
how can any Catholic in America, that believes in the Catholic doctrines, in good faith vote for a Candidate that's an enemy of the Catholic Church doctrines
As a protestant, wouldn't Bush be more of an enemy of the Catholic Church doctrines?

Re: Kerry accused of heresy,
It means he is not being truthful about his stands, whether its his personal life, like his first marriage, to the being unfaithful to his first wife wedding vows, while married, and then wanting an annulment from the Catholic Church, etc... Kerry is quite unbelievable, you can not take both sides of an issue, yet the media is letting Kerry get away with being a contradiction, etc...
How is it a contradiction to divorce and remarry?

Re:
I'm not sure if he got his annualment, but that would be a contradiction to say you were married and that the marriage never happened
Whatever, are you aware of what "contradiction" actually means?
I think what you mean is "lie". They're not interchangable words. And even then, he's not saying that the first marriage never happened, in the sense of saying he never lived with the woman and had children with her, he's going through church procedure to have the first marriage no longer recognized by the church. That's what an annulment is.
GWB is married to the same woman, and publically honoring his marriage, his righteous standards actually are more in agreement with the Catholic Church
Except for the whole "not married by the Catholic Church" thing.
Kerry was the one joining the Catholic Church, and is the one responsible for breaking their fundemental doctrines
If the Catholic Church granted the annulment, then how is he going against the Catholic Church? Seems to me like they okayed the whole deal.

Re: right on.
I don't think you can call someone stupid for voting for Bush. That's not nice lol.
Is it okay to call someone stupid for stabbing themselves in the throat?
Just trying to figure out where the "nice" line is drawn.

Re: right on.
Committing suicide and voting for a president are slightly different
Heck, maybe it's a non-fatal stab wound. It's just gonna hurt like a bitch and generally impair your quality of life from then on. Is it okay to call someone who does that stupid?
This is not a rhetorical question.

Re: right on.
I dunno isn't it a little messed up to call a guy stupid who messed himself up
Very simple message, MessenjaH. Someone stabs themselves in the throat. Is the person smart for doing so, or stupid?
A direct answer would be much appreciated.

If he's not stupid, then why aren't you stabbing yourself in the throat? Apparently, it's the smart thing to do.

Giving your dicking about on this thread, I'm inclined to agree.

Re: right on.
Well sir, I don't like dishonesty or hidden intentions when posting barely-comprehensible analogies.
Asking a related question is not dishonest. Being asked a straightforward question and dicking around on answering it is.
As for barely-comprehensible... yes, if that's how you feel, then I think we do have to assume that you are in fact stupid.
Knife. Neck. Smart or stupid. What's so incomprehensible about that?
Don't be upset I didn't get caught in your trap.
Wow. If you acknowledging that stabbing yourself in the neck is stupid will somehow trap you into agreeing with me, then your point must be really freakin' weak.
