I don't know why Bush and Kerry can't make an agreement not to bring up their own service or to discuss each other's service (or lack thereof) in the military and ignore all independent ads. Too bad Edwards has to whine & b!tch even after Bush condemned these type of ads, saying that Bush didn't condemn the swiftboat ad specifically.
Bush would like to get back to the real issues, like who's the right man to protect our nation and make it stronger in 2004, not who was the right man to do it back in the 70s. Who was the one who has prevented large-scale terrorism in the U.S. since 9/11? Who took the battle to the terrorists and tyrants instead of waiting for them to take it to our shores? Who built our country with faith, community, education, health care, family, and patriotism? I think the answer is clear. And I think that's why 3 purple hearts is all John Kerry has to run on. I don't think voters want to know that he skipped most of the medicare votes and voted against a partial-birth abortion ban. And it will bite him in the a$$ these next few months.
I guess I answered my own question. Because stuff that happened 35 years ago is all John Kerry has to run on. Either that or negative attacks against Bush.
Look at Bush and Kerry's websites, and tell me who is runnign the negative campaign. You hypocrites.
