So to make things right he decides to exascerbate the situatin by denying them the armor and then blaming the whole thing on Bush. Makes sense to me! Oh, and he voted for the "badly planned" war, just a reminder.
"Hey, I'm now against war now that the poles aren't 80% in favor, so I'll put more lives in jeapardy by denying them the equipment that they need now that the occupation is not going as well as we thought it would." How very compassionate. Thats the type of person I want as President.
As for his comments on Vietnam, I'm not saying those are my opinions, but the opinions of the military people I know. They consider it a fraternity and what he said afterwards hurt them greatly. They also belive that Kerry went to Vietnam, yes by choice, but they believed it was very contrived. They belive he went there for political reasons, and point to the number on cameras that seemed to follow him around as evidence. By the way, Kerry is also an admitted war criminal and his fellow troops don't like that he implicated them for the same crimes. Once again, not my opinion but that is what much of the military (that I know of) feel.
