so he went AWOL his last year to run a Republican campaign in Alabama.

According to Tony Snow, Bush was never AWOL. His unit never saw combat. This is a typical falsity the libs like to spread.

I heard Tony Snow yesterday saying, with a little self satisfied chuckle, that those who say that Bush went AWOL are "...mistaken."

The way he said it was as if he had said "...idiots!"

I love Tony Snow!

I believe there is documentation online that proves Bush was AWOL. His unit may never have seen combat, but he was called up.

He was never punished, as a regular soldier would have been, and even got an “honorable” discharge.

This is the gulf between the wealthy and powerful and the average American citizen. It's a fault of Democrats (like the one from Tennessee) and Republicans. I don't think damning details like this should be swept under the rug. I was actually stunned to see Bush do the flight suit photo op, as all the dirt from his past will soon be dragged out.

Not only that - but according to Tony Snow - Bush's unit was in a "combat ready" status during his last months. Bush could have been called up at any time.

I'm sorry, but you cannot get an "honorable" discharge from the service if you are AWOL - NOT POSSIBLE - and I don't care who you are.
