As to the spin doctoring that these men, the Swift Vets, are making things up, well I ask you, why would they? What do they possibly hope to gain? Nothing, they are just American veterans who happened to have served with Kerry and they are telling us that he is not the right man for the job.

Why would they? Maybe because they don't like Kerry? There are Veterans (also Swift) as far as I know that state the direct opposite of what the Swift Veterans tell you. Why would they make things up? Because they like Kerry and not Bush? Who is right I don't know but it is IMHO a bit far-fetched to say that either of the Vets are objective in their opinion, not subjective.

And if history has ever taught us anything, its to listen to our vets.

I'm no Amercian so can you give me an example where the Vets said something that was not done and that got awfully wrong? Anyway, just being someone who has been in a war doesn't make a person more reliable or wiser then other persons IMHO. I would trust my mother any day with her opinion but she surely isn't a veteran. I have seen my fair share of cruelty, suffering, blood and death as a Paramedic but this doesn't make me more reliable or wiser then other people who haven't. You see my point of view.

The majority of our military and are veterans, as well as their families, support Bush. This tells me two things, one he has their confidence, and Kerry does not, and two, they would rather have a man of proven character in office over that of a man who's character is in question.

Why is it that important that the President has the majority of vote from the military personal? How many people of the police, medical stuff, fire fighters and - most of all - persons who don't get their pay check from a government organisation - prefer Bush over Kerry and vice versa? Why is the job of these persons so important and - for example - not their social standing or something else? Why is the opinion of these persons more important then opinions of other persons? I'm just curios.
