The relevance should be obvious. Dubya missed some guard meetings and made them up. He received an honorable discharge. RAT b*st*rds are calling him a deserter. One of the great political ironies of all time is that those who are attacking our president's service in the National Guard are the same people who defended a draft dodger who loathed the military and who led demonstrations against his nation during wartime in which the American flag was burned. I think there is some relevance.

Bringing up Clinton serves no useful purpose. Defend the record of GWB on its own. No one really cares about issues from a long time ago - let it go.

Ironies will get no where. Defending something by saying its better than something else is far to obtuse for most folks, anyway.

Compare W's record with his current (likely) opponent, not the record of someone who beat his Daddy.
