Club, I am sometimes surprised at the way your posts alternate between thoughtful discussions of issues, or attempts to do so -- and complete drivel.
I don't believe that any intelligent human being can look at those facts (i.e. the Story behind the vote) -- and conclude that Kerry somehow failed to support the war effort in Iraq and thus was not "supporting the troops." That is simple-minded crap, fodder for 15 second sound-bites designed to appeal to the LCD and nothing more.
If your defense of the ads comes down to . . . "Well, maybe its misleading, but he DID vote that way (so he didn't "support the troops" and he is a flip-flopper no matter what the facts or reasons are). . . " just save the electrons.
