Establishing Priorities

In order to get anything accomplished in moving toward any goal, it is important to set priorities. Based on the current news in the media, I see the Democrats priority is to, once again, to undermine President Bush by once again bringing up his military record of serive in the Texas Air National Guard. I could accept this as a priority is it were pertinent to the problems currently facing our nation. President Bush entered, served and was honorably discharged. President Bush was elected to the most important office in the free world and has served us well. I think this should overshadow anything in his past military, business and gubernatorial history.
John Kerry made his service in Vietnam the center of his campaign because he evidently thought this demonstrated his finest hours in service to this nation. That was his choice to make. He has been very unhappy and, in fact, outraged that someone dared to say it wasn't quite as dramatic as he has boasted and he has had to revise some of his claims to fame. He has labeled the Swiftboat Vets liars. Now he is trying to compare his military record with that of President Bush to somehow prove he is the better man. I say, bring it on. Let John Kerry sign the form 180 to release all of his military records and then let us compare written record to written record.
Since this is Kerry's obvious priority to prove who was the greater warrior over thirty years ago, let us see the records--all of them. Not fair to demand release of all the President's records and then have Kerry pick and choose just those pages he wants to share with us. If you do not sign the 180, you obviously are hiding the beam in your eye while magnifying the speck in the president's eye
