Interesting how in this election (or in this country) experience works against you. You go to Vietnam, get shot at, fish people out of the water and run and shoot after the bad guys--and you get hammered for doing out of political reasons. You reflect on your experience and decide to be against this war--you get hammered for being unpatriotic. You go and serve in the Senate for decades and run up a long voting record--you get hammered for perceived inconsistencies. In short: better not to have any medals for valor than throwing them over the fence. What a strange country....
Guess what: experience comes over time, and times, my friends, they change. You reflect, and you adapt to change. There's nothing inconceivable about you changing your mind from a vote, say, in the 1970's to one in the 1990's. Just think about your own haircut twenty years ago...
The point is, experience should change you, unless you're God. Of course, that's who Bush claims to be talking to whenever he's not talking to Cheney.
