The best bet is if the Bush campaign goes after this. They have been passive so far. I'd be surprised if the GOP does anything significant. I would certainly suggest that the best thing to do is to let the blogosphere go after it as the GOP looks on benignly. No need to dignify the issue by talking about it. Let the Dems waste their valuable time on issues on which the public's mind has already been made.

<<The best bet is>> Ask for forgiveness... and move on. Please realize that whether it is God, alcohol, or drugs, this guy requires plenty of outside stimuli. We knew it 4 years ago (or should have). My heart tells me that the Florida Bush will once again save his brother.

Not just CBS, but "60 Minutes". ...White House officials dismissed the latest criticism of Bush's service as partisan attacks in the midst of a heated campaign. In an interview with "60 Minutes," White House communications director Dan Bartlett said "partisan Democrats" were "recycling the very same charges we hear every time President Bush runs for reelection" and added: "It is dirty politics." But he did not contest the authenticity of the documents, which could not be verified independently by The Washington Post. A spokeswoman for "60 Minutes," Kelli Edwards, declined to say exactly how the new documents were obtained other than that CBS News understood they had been taken from Killian's "personal office file." In addition to the order to Bush to report for a physical, the documents include various memos from Killian describing his conversations with Bush and other National Guard officers about Bush's attempts to secure a transfer to Alabama. Killian died in 1984. washingtonpost.com
