you can tell when the bush babies need their diaper changed because you guys whine about everything someone says bad about bush.




Everyone knows? No need for facts here...we just "know", we can make up the documents to fill in the blanks eh?
BTW, the acceptance rate for ANY officer candidate (even ones that took out loans for college) applying for national guard in that era was 30-40%. No big miracle that any college kid gets in.

Whine? This whole tread is about the FUN...no whining here!
Rather & Kerry got caught together with pants down around the ankles..its not anybody ELSE'S fault that this little aahhemm..indiscretion..with documents is taking the focus off uf Kerry "the great closer"s comeback. The loudest whining that I recall came after swiftboat vets...as did threats to sue any station playing the add, to sue the vets as well. There was some first amendment in action! We will see if Kerry has the guts to follow through with the suit and go up against these 260 vets under oath in a court of law. My bet is all he does is WHINE.

Documents.. reminds me, any further word on the National Archieves documents that Clinton security adviser Sandy Buerger (aka Burgler) stuffed in his pants as he was preparing his 9/11 commission testimony? Media has been hush on this..
