This crap is precisely the reason why we don't get better candidates running for high office.

Thanks for telling me I didn't realize I had so much influence.

Do you really give a rat's asss about this stuff?

Yes I do. Kerry has promoted his Viet Nam service as a key qualification for his being elected president. If the guy has totally misrepresented his record of service and received at least some of his medals fraudulently then I think that's something that's worth knowing. This is especially the case since Kerry and the DNC have made Kerry's service an issue. Don't most people believe that character counts? If you don't care about don't read about it. Just vote for Kerry.

My you have a high opinion of yourself if you think that I was referring to your influence. I was referring of course to the blatant character assisinations that take place during election campaigns for high offices.

And I was referring of course to the same blatant character assisinations in my statement of giving a rat's asss.

I similarly disregarded the stuff said about W four years ago. The sooner we get this type of thing out of politics the better off the country will be. But as long as people such as yourself so easily latch onto this stuff, I don't hold out much hope for that.
