The guard of Bush's day was fairly innocuous. Not much to make an issue of. It would be like a the guy who invented the internet putting on his resume that he was involved in the soap box derby as an eight year old. Bush is the president of the greatest super power the world has ever known. What he did as an eighteen year old is of very little interest except to historians. I know you are trying to make a case for fraud but its only a theory at this point and not much of one, imo. Kerry's service, and related activities, are his main claim to fame on the other hand. It is and should be a significant measure of how we view his candidacy. At least until or unless he discounts it as significant.

The media has had trouble documenting that our president actually followed through on his commitment to the Air National Guard. The "media" and you hate George Bush. You WANT it to be an issue, it is not. Why won't the media follow up on the allegations of re-enacted battle scenes? And this new revelation: A new bombshell book written by the man who took over John Kerry's Swift Boat charges: Two of John Kerry's three Purple Heart decorations (#1 and #3) resulted from self-inflicted wounds, not suffered under enemy fire. The startling Purple Heart accusations, outlined in detail for the first time, are found in UNFIT FOR COMMAND, Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry. drudgereport.com Say what you will about Drudge, if he were reporting something like this on Bush, the media would be all over it.
