No Shame??

Well, Senator Joe McCarthy?s career was brought to a halt because someone asked him "have you no shame?" The question probably would not work with Bush, Karl Rove and the rest of their dirtbag team. They clearly have no shame whatsoever.

My first reaction was that the "Swift Boat Veterans for Recovered Memory Syndrome" were at least testifying that Kerry was in Vietnam. No one can produce a veteran who saw Bush there. Can they?? Indeed no one can produce a veteran who saw Bush on a military base in Alabama during the year he was missing either! But they continue to get away with it!


In 1994 Bush told the Houston Chronicle, "I was not prepared to shoot my eardrum out with a shotgun in order to get a deferment. Nor was I willing to go to Canada. So I chose to better myself by learning how to fly airplanes." In fact, the Air National Guard unit he joined was known as Air Canada ? because it was as good as a flight north of border!

Really "committed" and eager to serve his country in "combat" to help end that "war" in Vietnam, wasn't he??? Yeah, right!

The two guys on the republican ticket have no shame. No one would have a problem with them not serving if it weren?t that they had actively supported the war they dodged, and if their campaign did not have a sleazy record of attacking the patriotism, not just of Bill Clinton for not going to war, but also for impugning the patriotism of McCain, Kerry, Cleland and others who did go. This is hypocrisy at it's worst, and I think the prime duty of any citizen made aware of it is to attack hypocrisy in public figures and elected officials.

So, I will continue to voice my objections to their continuing charade and revolting record from the time of the Vietnam war through the current mess they have got us into!

From the very beginning, George W. Bush has made his own credibility a central issue. On 10/11/00 during the 2000 campaign for President, then Governor Bush said: "I think credibility is important. It is going to be important for the president to be credible with Congress, important for the president to be credible with foreign nations."

It is apparent to everyone that Bush and his cronies have NO CREDILBILTY at alll!
