Doing your duty and going home after fulfilling your military obligation is not quitting.

Quitting is what Kerry did on the battlefield.

We're not talking about walking away from the military while legally obligated to serve. That can't be done.

We're talking about voluntarily enlisting to serve in the future. To make a commitment to serve for a term of years, knowing that Kerry has voted against US military funding over and over again, that he believes the war in Iraq is the wrong war in the wrong place at the wrong time, and that he wants the international community to decide how to deploy the US military in future.

Ask Zell Miller. He'll tell you that dog won't hunt.

And while we're on the subject, ask yourself whether the US military is likely to come to the aid of France or Germany in any future war. They better hope the Canadians and the Kiwis will come to their aid.

Barbra Streisand and Michael Moore can send their kids, mine won't go. I just asked them. They would not volunteer to serve while Kerry or anyone like him is President.

Patriots volunteer for their "post." Just because John Kerry says "that is your post" doesn't make it so.
