How can you be a draft dodger when it's your life at stake but then be a war-time president when he's out of harms way??? How can people think that's ok? wtf!??
Kerry's a Christian and went to war in Vietnam to fight for his country, decided that it was a bullshit war and he's the bad guy.

First I don’t think it is far to call Bush a draft dodger. Truth with regard to both candidates service is required... both served honorably. Many of us who have served are sick of this replacing official records with lies and innuendo. Both served honorably now shut your cake hole.
It seems that some are selective in their criticism of presidents who commit troops to war without having seen the elephant themselves. For instance Clinton most certainly side stepped the draft and yet he received very little criticism from the from the left when he committed troops to Kosovo.
Kerry is not a bad guy because he decide that Vietnam was bad policy, he is a bad guy because of the way he went about it and because he claimed that his peers where war criminals.
