Senator Kerry's military service and President Bush's do not even begin to compare IMO. Are you old enough to remember Vietnam? The questions about President Bush translate into his present day character. His constant refusal to be accountable for his behavior had early roots.
"Character"....sounds a lot like the argument about Clinton from the right during Monicagate. The left didn't think that it mattered that much then...

And, I am sure most people with political ties, both Dem and Rep., tried to pull strings to get out of the war.

I don't think Kerry fighting in Vietnam qualify's him for anything. I think his past voting record is more of a relevant issue. Same for Bush. I hate all this digging into how a candidate acted when they were 20.

I am scared to have Kerry as the head of our military. Didn't he vote against the first Gulf War?
