I agree with those who say this is a preemptive strike to try to keep Republicans away from Kerry's traitorous activities in support of Vietnam Veterans Agains the War.

The simple answer is that if Bush hadn't made up missed meetings, he wouldn't have accumulated enough points to get an honorable discharge.

Thanks for posting that link, backhoe.

I waded through that article and at least I now understand why it all seems so murky. LOL. However, the relevant murkiness seems confined to the final part of his service and it's not clear that he ever actually failed to do anything that was required of him. Or am I missing something here?

[hoosiermama]

Good one...(but isn't it nice we ALL get to talk to him everynight thanks to FR.)

[mystery-ak]

Im so sick of the degrading of the Guard and Reserves...they are fighting and dying in Iraq, Afghanistan and Bosnia...Mike(hubby) has just been extened for the 4th time and will be gone 15mos...some *meeting*.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Imus comments that proof of an allegation is not on the accuser because "it doesn't work that way" speaks volumes to me.

In the American media, it doesn't work that way. Imus is right to point that unpleasant reality out.

[hoosiermama]

I think the GOP should use you two as their "secret weapon" Turn you loose on him! You go girls! Behind ya all the way!

[international american]

"This is the miliary...there's a HUGE paper trail here. Bush is just waiting to dump it all out to make the 'rats look like fools.
I give it two or three weeks..."


If this is Bush's strategy, it is a good one; let the morons hang themselves. Kerry should have never commented on this......ever hear of an officer BUYING an honorable discharge??:)

[jnarcus]

Right o, last time around. Bush didn't attend some meetings at a particular time but made them up later with additional dates..This is so much hooey and unfortunate;y these Rats will run it into the ground like James Bird...unethical slobs who loved the superbowl half time...liscentious and lascivious the lot of em

[kabar]

YES! Back to the play ground...."Well you are too" philosophy!....So much of the dems behavior can be compared to an elementary school playground. Which leaved the adults (R) to patrol it.

The Dems play hardball on the playground. They dropped the DUI charge on Bush just before election day. They tried to steal the election in Florida with the chad scam. They have corrupt political machines in most of the large cities, which commit voter fraud every election. If the Reps deign to get into the political arena and fight, they will no longer be in charge of the playground. It may make one feel good that they are adults and above the fray, but the bottom line is you must win in order to have any influence on events.

"Where are the media stories about that?"

Hopefully, waiting to be drug out after Kash and Kerry has actually 'won' the nomination. That's why they are rehashing the "deserter" charge. Bush should pull a Kerry and tell them that that is "old news."

I am already so sick of this dim campaign that I have to quit watching. It is not good for my health. The so-called debates are a joke and the 24-7 lovefest from the media is sickening. They are NEVER called on their lies about Bush.

For example, perky Katie was interviewing Breck girl this morning and asked him about his attacks on Kerry....which he totally DIDNOT answer and turned the question into a "how wonderful Edwards is and Bush ain't" response and she just let it go....it's nauseating.

"Bush didn't attend some meetings at a particular time but made them up later with additional dates.."

That is what I read. If the NYT scum don't want to touch the story, it speaks volumes!!

[PhiKapMom]

It is the pilot training that he called meetings that I had a problem with. There are other times they are called meetings but not pilot training when Pres Bush was on active duty in the Air Force.

[rintense]

RAT bastards, every single one of them.

I found it necessary years ago to install a Couric "ZOT" in my television.

[PhiKapMom]

They are desparate! The media is really carrying the RAT water right now!

[hoosiermama]

"the bottom line is you must win in order to have any influence on events."

1. Yes and to win...."We must hold them accountable for their actions."
A. Not accept excuses
B. Not give in to intimidations
C. Not allow cheating...call them on it.
D. all of the above and more.

It's time to draw the line_________________________________________________________

[PhiKapMom]

I agree with you that IMUS spoke a fact about the media. I should have clarified it that it spoke volumes about all the media as IMUS is telling the truth.

[Howlin]

Bob Bechtel was just on Fox, claiming Bush was a deserter.

[PJ-Comix]

When is Imus's wife going to leave him for Kasey Kaseem or Paul Harvey?

Actually she has the HOTS for Howard Stern.
