Kerry's Jibe at GIs Draws Rebuke by Bush and McCain
in response to reader comment: Kerry speaks out

Submitted by EyeRak Wor Vederan, Nov 2, 2006 06:38

I must say that I strongly agree that Senator Kerry's "joke" has finally revealed the Democratic Party's true colors. As a thirty two year old marine, I have served two very challenging, demanding and life changing tours of duty in Iraq. I am still amazed on how our young men and women who are "stuck in Iraq" operate million dollar tanks and planes equipped with the latest technology, which is not yet available in the civilian world. To operate such technology it is clear that one must posess strong reading, writing and communication abilities. Maybe if Kerry "recruits" help in speech writing and reading he will not have these "botched jokes". You will always be a disgrace to the uniform!!
