That the general who'd just hired himself a new pilot trainee would send a letter to his dad is just, so..... SO WHAT?

The worst interpretation that can be put on this is that the General was sucking up to the Congressman... not an unheard of thing. Which may dim the General's luster but not Bush pere's, and certainly not Bush fis's.

Don't worry. Ever since NASCAR allowed vehicles that were not produced with a rear wheel drive, V-8 powertrain to run in NASCAR races they have become irrelevant.

If you just remember that there is NO substitute for cubic inches, you'll go far.

Now that I've seen where it came from, I had friends back then who were into it. I think that's what they were quoting. About all I remember was, "One large pizza, no anchovies." "No anchovies?" And this is where my memory stops, cept that there was more to it than than.

I believe they White House said that " all the records we recieved or something to that effect. Not all the records that exist. We went through this same thing with the Gore campaign. They don't have anything on Bush or they would have used it.

I swear when I say this, I thought it was fake article meant for humor purposes. This is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. The Commander thought a lot of Bush and wrote his Father, "the shock and horror", Bush was good enought to be put in what sounds like Air Force PR releases, "wow thats a smoking gun". To put in the Kitty Kelly reference is very small

Three decades later, a new book by Kitty Kelley has alleged that Bush used cocaine while he was a student at Yale University and later at Camp David while his father was president.

With no named sources to back up ANY of her new claims (which she ADMITTED to Chris Matthews)

As I mentioned to someone else, my husband's commanding officer sent letters to all the parents of the new recruits.

The White House has said repeatedly that all of Bush's Guard records have been disclosed, only to be embarrassed when new documents have turned up.

No they said that they have been released.

They were not all sitting in one big file in a vault somewhere.

They are in dribbles and dabs all over the place. Finding them is the reporters job. You know, research. That thing that reporters used to do before they became fat and lazy.

I don't know if you have ever met any fighter pilots while they were still flying the planes, but the few that I've met at the time were "cowboys" to a man.

That GWB's demeanor is similar is not likely a coincidence.

If you want to win anything, why not pick a former fighter pilot as a leader?

"No anchovies? You've got the wrong man! I spell my name DANGER!" Hangs up phone. Voice on other end: "What?"

Well, the AP clearly wants its credibility to go the way of CBS's. Buh-bye!

I actually get that cubic inches deal. The gearhead drag racin guy I dated talked & talked & talked about his car. He was pushing a 302 as far as he could take it. Nitrus Ox enhancing, oversized bore... When his driveshaft busted on one run, the flames following behind him looked pretty cool. lol

NASCAR... Nanny or some other named dojobby thing to even the playing field, right?

What answer will Kerry give should he be asked in the debates if he has siged Form 180 enabling the release of all of his military records?

"The Pentagon sued to get more documents released. I think this is part of what they got:"

I thought that the AP sued the Pentagon.
