8/17 http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/story/222931p-191456c.html Ex-Navy fighter pilot Sen. Tom Harkin ... was infuriated by the veep mocking Sen. John Kerry for saying he would fight a "more sensitive war on terror." ... "When I hear this coming from Dick Cheney, who was a coward, who would not serve during the Vietnam War, it makes my blood boil ... He'll be tough, but he'll be tough with someone else's kid's blood ... It just outrages me that someone who got five deferments during Vietnam and said he had 'other priorities' at that time would say that," said Harkin, an Iowa Democrat. \_ Yep. Where was your war hero Clinton during Vietnam? This whole Vietnam litmus test is a hypocritical joke and a scam. Why won't Kerry release his military records? It's what he's running on. \_ Missed the DNC? Bill came clean and admitted that he, Bush, and Cheney all dodged their duty. And Kerry's military records have been posted on his website. Move on, son, that horse is dead. \_ Yeah now that it no longer matters to his career. And no Kerry's *complete* records are not on his website. Only selected portions. \_ So what has not yet been released? \_ The records behind all his medals for starters. All his medical records. And frankly, we don't know exactly what else but it is known that they're not all released. If we knew exactly what was in every document then no one would ask for a full release, eh? \_ So, what are you saying? That Clinton was as bad as Bush and Cheney for dodging the draft? Granted! They were all utter cowards. John Kerry and John McCain are both worth more as human beings than the other three combined. Ready to vote for Kerry now? \_ "Simply stated, there is no doubt that Saddam Hussein now has weapons of mass destruction." -Cheney (August 2002) \_ Oh yeah, Nicaragua Harkin. A Communist dupe coming to the aid of another Communist dupe and general dork. |

| www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/story/222931p-191456c.html Tom Harkin called Vice President Cheney a coward who dodged military service but is willing to be tough "with someone else's kid's blood." John Kerry for saying he would fight a "more sensitive war on terror." "When I hear this coming from Dick Cheney, who was a coward, who would not serve during the Vietnam War, it makes my blood boil," Harkin said yesterday, elevating an already vicious war of words between the two campaigns and their allies. "He'll be tough, but he'll be tough with someone else's kid's blood," Harkin said of Cheney. "It just outrages me that someone who got five deferments during Vietnam and said he had 'other priorities' at that time would say that," said Harkin, an Iowa Democrat. Team Bush replied that Harkin resorted to name-calling because he cannot defend Kerry's votes on Iraq or intelligence issues. That quote says a lot more about Tom Harkin's character than anybody else's," said Bush campaign spokesman Steve Schmidt. org, meanwhile, airs a new ad today in Ohio, Wisconsin and West Virginia attacking Bush for failing to condemn millionaire Texas GOP donor Robert Perry for funding a group of vets trying to discredit Kerry's Vietnam War record. The 30-second TV ad says Bush has allowed Perry to fund the group Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, which has aired a commercial casting doubt on Kerry's war record. "Here's what a true Republican war hero has to say about the anti-Kerry ad: 'I think the ad is dishonest and dishonorable. I think the Bush campaign should specifically condemn the ad,'" the MoveOn spot says as McCain's image appears. Roy Hoffmann, founder of Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, responded, "We were there. We served alongside John Kerry and we know the history of his service. |
