Exactly, people are straying away from the issue. The real and more disturbing issue at hand is Kerry’s absolute need to be on both sides of every issue. His addiction to this balance/counter-balance approach to every issue – and his voting record is full of it (no pun intended) – brings up a very valid concern about his credibility. Can he be trusted to take a stand on an issue? Can he be trusted to keep his word both to our citizenry and the governments of the world? Can he be trusted to see tough issues like the War on Terror through to completion? These are all matters of credibility. Kerry’s is questionable, to say the least. And that, dear readers, is not a phony controversy.

Kerry has released his service record. People questioned the award of his purple heart. Everything is out in the open and the questions went away. Now is it not time for Bush to say what he did with his service in the Guards and explain the gaps in his record. I think that is the biggest credibility issue. Not what car a person drives of the Perry Ellis brand of one's shirt. The issue is when they were both of an age that required service to this country what did they do. I repeat, the credibility issue is when they were both of age for service to this country, what did they decide of their own free will. One served, went for duty and the other just used his personal influence to not go to war,IMO. If you want to take the credibility issue further, let us now talk about the past 3 1/2 years of Bush in the WH. As far as the Presidency goes, it has always been "The Buck stops here" How can Bush say the intelligence misled him. Why does he not fire the intelligence chief. Is he afraid that if he does so the truth will come out? Why is it the heads are not rolling on 9/11? These are serious questions we are asking and the American people want to know whom is the President trying to protect? IS it himself that he is trying to protect? Then in that case he should be fired. If not then he should fire those who failed him.
