Hmmmm...... More baseless opinions stated as fact. <font color=blue>"30 years ago he dodged to sign up for Vietnam and joined the National Guard instead."<font color=black> Based on what credible facts? Never mind.... here are a few that contradict your faulty POV...... ....George Bush joined the Guard for a SIX-year term. If you are drafted, you only have to serve TWO years. Bush probably did not need to pull strings to get into a jet fighter unit. Jets required a greater time commitment than normal Guard postings. <font size=4>Pilots from the unit that he joined were being sent to Vietnam.<font size=3> All the publications that have researched this have concluded that there is NO evidence that he used any influence to get into the Guard. The liberal publications will say that there is no evidence, but it is still suspicious..... Message 20497774 ....Bush voluntarily joined a military unit part of which was at that very moment involved in combat in Vietnam. He learned to fly fighter jets. He served honorably and was well-regarded by his fellow pilots. He put in more than his required time of service. And he was honorably discharged..... Message 19647054 <font color=blue>"Then he did not show up later and his flying license was not renewed."<font color=black> Was Bush "AWOL"? You can follow the links on this one if you doubt him Message 19647054 billhobbs.com <font size=4>Bush Guard Service, The True Story<font size=3> Message 20497774 <font size=4>Bush’s National Guard years Before you fall for Dems’ spin, here are the facts <font size=3> Message 20502721 <font color=blue>"In the past 4 years, he has shirked from taking responsibility for the intelligence failures...." <font color=black> IZZAT so? Apparently you too have not read the Senate Intelligence Committee's or the 9/11 Commission's report. Perhaps you might cite a few specific failures so we can discuss them.
