Even better - they remembered because there was a battle in
their village.
They remembered the guy Kerry shot, big strong guy in his
mid=20s.
They remembered how the bullets were flying and how they shot
at Kerry's boat, but missed.
Too bad your crummy little Texas ANG washout can't remember
where he spent those months AWOL. Couldn't remember the
direct orders to take his physical. Couldn't remember Ben
Barnes getting his ass in the TexANG ahead of hundreds of
better qualified applicants.
Maybe if your guy had ever been in combat and got show at
he'd be more careful about throwing our troops into a desert
guerilla war without body armor and stretched way too thin
because one of his cronies was in a think tank that thought
that would be really cool.

BUSH MISLEADS ON OSAMA BIN LADEN
At last night's debate President Bush claimed that, contrary
to Sen. John Kerry's assertion, he never said he was "not
that concerned" about Osama Bin Laden. Bush chastised Kerry
saying, "Gosh, I don't think I ever said I'm not worried
about Osama bin Laden. That's kind of one of those
exaggerations."[1] Bush was completely wrong.
At March 13, 2002 press conference, Bush said "So I don't
know where he [Osama Bin Laden] is. You know, I just don't
spend that much time on him...I truly am not that concerned
about him."[2] Watch the video of Bush's remarks:
