i don't think many people have a problem with Bush service. i don't. he served longer duty than 90% of guard units. most were cut to four months active to make more room for regular army training. Bush would have gone over if called up. they stopped using the type plane he was qualified on and his mos (military job training was no longer of any use to the air national guard.) In other words you believe he should have gotten a book and come to a meeting sat in room and collected pay from the state for reading a book. If the guard wanted more flyers they should have discharged him to inactive service and brought in new men to train on new fighters who would have six years to go.

I see.......he didn't have anything to do so there was no point to his going to meetings. It made no difference that he signed a 6 year commitment; that others had nothing to do but they went to their meetings.........instead, a nuisance for Bush and a minor nuance for you.

However when it has to do with Kerry's medals, then its a completely different story. You all will jump on him if he didn't wipe his butt right.

Well, sir, your boy was AWOL.....he should been called up or court martialed.........but daddy was a congressman so instead, Mr. Bush partied hardy, snorted coke and got trashed.

And now jr is president of the most powerful nation in the world and that's okay with you. Well, sir, don't bother to post back because it will be a waste of your time and mine.
