Asked if he believed that he and Kerry ``served on the same level of heroism,'' Bush replied, ``No, I don't. I think him going to Vietnam was more heroic than my flying fighter jets. He was in harm's way and I wasn't.''...``On the other hand, I served my country. Had my unit been called up, I would have gone.''

Oh my. This is just masterful. Bush here has taken the wind out of any comparison Kerry will try to make in the future. He has benevolently defended Kerry from the Swifties while like a gentleman tipping his hat toward Kerry on Vietnam, this, while not detracting from his own service.

And the Swifties are still gonna try to take Kerry's head clean off.
