1. The $6,000,001.00 Question For Robert Dole

Were your wounds self-inflicted so you could get out of combat duty and use them for your political aspirations?

2. His first Purple Heart was the type of injury he now has a problem with

He got a piece of scrapnel in his arm from a buddy's grenade. But that's OK. He has shown his disdain for all vets now so he must also hate himself.

3. It wasn't from a buddy

Dole himself threw the grenade. It hit a tree and bounced back.

Self Inflicted.

6. So could someone please pass this info on to the media

so they can point out just how ridiculous Dole's comments were? He needs to be called on his bullshit immediately! Where is the Kerry rapid response team on this one? If the GOP is going to question JK's records than they had better be prepared to have any attack dog they trot out records attacked too. I know it's not pretty and it's allowing ourselves to stoop to their level but if we don't, we're going to lose. These bastards will stop at nothing and it's high time we learn how to play hardball with these folks and let them know that we will hit them back just as hard as they are hitting us and that we're not playing by the same old rules anymore.

last night. Here's hoping they USE it! :toast:

5. I Pity Bob Dole....

Every time he show flashs of being a decent guy he reverts to his previous petty partisan personnae....


I won't say some of the things about him that others here are saying because of the grievousness of his injuries... Hell, half his upper body is useless...

But why he had to piss on Kerry's wounds is beyond me....

My dad, God bless his soul, took shrapnel in the right eye during the North African campaign and it blinded him... If he was a bit closer it might have killed him...

The only thing that stands between being grazed and being seriously injured or killed is the grace of God...

Mr. Dole... Your beef ain't with Mr. Kerry for not being injured enough.... It's with someone a bit higher in the chain of command...

7. Ask him if cigarette smoking is addictive. :)

[Jacobin]

9. LOL. I remember that!

He's a very reliable source for all kinds of issues. :-)

[TheRovingGourmet]

13. That was Day One of the end of his campaign. He might as

well have started ranting about the world being flat. :)

8. Bob Dole

Is a political hack. He is just as mean spirited as Cheney, only having the experience of being a Senator, he knows how to put up a charming front. Behind his facade is a scheming, vitriolic puss-fill blighted soul.

11. Bob Dole's recklessness killed his radioman

and his first Purple Heart was for a superficial wound.

[NewYorkerfromMass]

14. Really? and Bush's dad needlessly killed his 2 crewmen

by bailing too early.

[gratuitous]

12. Dole has been a reliable hatchetman all his life

He briefly seemed to have a change of heart during Stupidhead's administration, but I think that was just so he could have SOMETHING to show St. Peter when he tries to get into Heaven. He has reverted to form, however, and is faithfully carrying poisoned wormwood water for the GOP, as he has all his life.

The other question, of course, is who in the White House sent him out, armed with his bogus talking points? You know he didn't do this on his own.
