You quoted it and still missed it somehow. She's not saying ALL Vietnam Veterans have mental problems, just ALL the Vietnam Veterans she knows.<BR/><BR/>And how do you know that's not true unless you know all the Vet's she knows? Impossible.<BR/><BR/>Anywho, McCain didn't even know what a gallon of gas COST until someone told him. In his world, you don't even look at gas prices driving past them on really huge signs. Because in his world, gas is paid for, it's just not something he has to worry about - not even on behalf of his cash-strapped constituency. Anyone that far removed from normal every day life should NEVER be President. Which is why Republican presidents SUCK because they thrive on elitist crap and shun every day people, including the ones who worship them while staying dead broke doing so.<BR/><BR/>Anyone even considering voting for McCain is either a bigot, stupid or both. And that's my own opinion, not Skeptik's so please don't blame her.ThatDeborahGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02235918238595525061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28461742.post-88972395477893448512008-07-31T17:15:00.000-04:002008-07-31T17:15:00.000-04:00Oops, you forgot that people who call themselves l...<B>Oops,</B> you forgot that people who call themselves liberal are supposed to <B>pretend</B> they don't have prejudices. <BR/><BR/>One of your prejudices just screamed off the page: "Everyone I know personally, and I mean, everyone, who came back from Vietnam was messed up in the head..." <BR/><BR/>That's like saying "All black people are ...", or "all women are ..."<BR/><BR/>I thought prejudging people by one's self-contrived viewpoint of a group based on a lack of knowledge went away with the last lynchings done by the KKK.<BR/><BR/>I thought prejudgement of all Vietnam War veterans as being crazy went away after the trite movies and TV shows that depicted *us* vets that way faded into history. <BR/><BR/>Maybe all the men and women I know who are normal people with degrees, good jobs, and stable family life who claim to be Vietnam War veterans are lying to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
