BuddyLee said:I guess according to you the same could be said about Kerry. Did it not take balls/conviction to stand up in front of Congress thirty years ago and express his opinion of the war? Did it not take balls/conviction to be one of the only ones to stand up for the VVAW?
I guess that is where we disagree oldman. I don't believe anyone should fight a war they don't believe in but like you said you gotta do what you gotta do. Was it un-American for John Kerry to come back and express his first amendment rights? The VVAW's ideals?oldman said:Once again I'll say I'm biased, but I was also involved with Viet Nam. I have to stand by my conviction that any war -or whatever you want to call it- shouldn't be fully supported. I'm not anti-Kerry on this but "I" did not come back and say we were wrong. War is He!! and I do not wish it on anybody but sometimes you just have to do what you gotta do. If my CINC tells me to go, I'd go simply because I'm an American.

I'd never seen that article until I googled it, though. My 'spin' didn't come from a web site, it came from my built-in bullshit detector.BuddyLee said:Just wondering the exact site you got your spin from.
Really? I thought Kerry looked great. And he looked 10 years younger when Teresa came and stood beside him.sleuth said:Kerry looked tired and wore out... as much as Bush did in the first debate.
Seems like the uber-conservative paper of the town.Bogart said:His hometown paper?
Why? Because it tells the truth?BuddyLee said:Seems like the uber-conservative paper of the town.
The Boston Globe = uber-conservative? You're an idiot.BuddyLee said:Seems like the uber-conservative paper of the town.
No because it has a political lean.vraiblonde said:Why? Because it tells the truth?

From a Q & A with the publisher of the Boston Globe.Bogart said:The Boston Globe = uber-conservative? You're an idiot.
Yeah, dude - LIBERAL! Believe it now?BuddyLee said:No because it has a political lean.
How can I possibly make an assumption on the paper as a whole if I don't read the paper? I have read this one article in particular and that is where my assumption lies. Perhaps they are uber-liberal, I don't know. Just revealing what I was able to get from your source.Bogart said:The Boston Globe = uber-conservative? You're an idiot.
