Irish: Let me get something right out of the way up front: I did not vote for Dubya in either election. Moreover, I find his conduct in avoiding service during Vietnam reprehensible. I served in the Army for five years, and I consider his conduct cowardice (as I consider Bill Clinton’s as well). That being said, John Kerry grossly inflated his service record, claiming credit where he should not have. Additionally, the comments he made about American servicemen and their actions in Vietnam, were and are unconscionable.
