Natl. Guard Queries Fair Game for "Posturing" Bush

The White House on Tuesday released payroll records from Bush's stint in the National Guard, showing what it regards as proof Bush completed his service. But a Wednesday editorial tries to keep the controversy alive: "Mr. Bush himself also made the issue of military service fair game by posturing as a swashbuckling pilot when welcoming a carrier home from Iraq. Now, the president needs to make a fuller explanation of how he spent his last two years in the Guard."

Democratic President Bill Clinton (who avoided the Vietnam draft and lied about receiving a draft induction notice, yet sent U.S troops to Haiti, Somalia, and the Balkans) was also photographed in military garb. Four years into Clinton's presidency, did the Times consider his avoidance of Vietnam “fair game” as well?
