Kerry can't have it both ways..

Kerry spent the entire Democratic convention convincing us that he is a war hero. Yet right after the Vietnam war he tells us that he committed war crimes. So is he a war criminal or a war hero? Because in my mind you can't have it both ways.
It seems Kerry wants it both ways on just about everything. Being for the Iraq war, being against funding it. Now he wants the swiftboat ads to be censored. You didn't hear the Bush campaign whining to have Michael Moore censored and this is a movie that made TONS of cash for those involved. Yet the NY times didn't seem to feel a need to find a "web of connections" from that movie to the democratic party. None of us on the right liked the fact that Michael Moore had this movie out there with its lies and distortions, yet we understand the meaning of free speech in this country. Obviously Kerry does not.
After Fahrenheit 9-11 came out many pundits came on Fox and disputed the claims made in the movie. (Thank God for Fox News) So the public could see the movie, hear the other side, and make an informed decision about what they believe. The same should happen with the swiftboat ads. Let those involved argue the fine points, and the public will decide. Trying to blackmail the TV stations that run the ad, as the Kerry campaign is doing, by threatening lawsuits for slander if they run it, is unbelievable! Just answer the charges for heaven's sake!
Kerry is hoping that by blaming Bush personally it will look like Bush actually had something to do with the ads. Bush is, as always, taking the high road and not answering back in a mean way. He simply says he condemns all 527 groups on both sides. ( I don't agree with that, but that's another blog) Kerry and his "Bring it on!" comment just made him look stupid.
Maybe Kerry should start running his campaign the way he wants to run the war, in a more sensitive manner.
