It's a fact that Mr. Bush led the country to war on conflicting, shaky, and now false information; that is, it's the basis of a charge of negligence. Had Mr. Bush been in combat himself and understood what it's like to hunt and be hunted by other men, to see your friends and acquaintances screaming while they die, to know how parents, spouses, and siblings feel when they're told their loved one is dead, he may have been more careful before he committed those troops. Mr Kerry has that experience. As Mr. Kerry has pointed out - you must be able to pass an "all encompassing" test that shows that war was your final and only option. Mr. Bush's decision has failed that test. And this may be because has no idea what combat means. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Purchase from House of Fusion, a Macromedia Authorized Affiliate and support the CF community. http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=36 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:133476 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
