Producer Raney Aronson is the producer, writer and director of the new PBS Frontline documentary, The Jesus Factor (April 29, at 9 p.m. on many stations). It examines President Bush's evangelical Christian faith, how he became a born-again Christian and the impact it has on his politics. Also, Wayne Slater, Austin bureau chief of The Dallas Morning News. He's followed Bush's political career, and appears in the documentary. He is also the author of the book, Bush's Brain: How Karl Rove Made George W. Bush President.

In May 2000 a story by Walter V. Robinson in the Boston Globe raised questions about whether George W. Bush completed his military service in the National Guard. The Boston Globe reported that "there is no evidence that he appeared for duty for a year just before his 1973 discharge from the Texas Air National Guard".

The Globe reported that "based upon extensive records of his service and interviews with former Guard officials, disclosed that Bush, who was a fighter pilot, ceased flying in April 1972 - 18 months before his discharge in October, 1973." While Bush returned to Texas in November 1972 he did not return to his unit.

The day after the Globe broke the story, Bush told Associated Press "I did the duty necessary . . . That's why I was honorably discharged".

The Biggest Goddam Crook and Liar This country Has Ever Elected To The White House!

The whole story about him not flying for the final 18 months was that they began to test active pilots for drugs. He never took a drug test.

I don't find it the least bit difficult to believe that a C student cheerleader from Yale who couldn't even get into the University of Texas law school was someone who cut every corner he was able to. While other young men his age were dying by the thousands in Vietnam he managed to get into the same elite national guard unit that all the Dallas Cowboys were in even though the line waiting to join "the Champagne Unit" was a thousand long. Can you say, "family ties?"

We Had No Good Reason To Invade Iraq And The Republican Party Knew It!!!

Again......here's the letter they wrote to Clinton in 1998 trying to get him to invade:

December 18, 1998


The Honorable William J. Clinton
President of the United States
Washington, DC

Dear Mr. President,

We are writing you because we are convinced that current American policy toward Iraq is not succeeding, and that we may soon face a threat in the Middle East more serious than any we have known since the end of the Cold War. In your upcoming State of the Union Address, you have an opportunity to chart a clear and determined course for meeting this threat. We urge you to seize that opportunity, and to enunciate a new strategy that would secure the interests of the U.S. and our friends and allies around the world. That strategy should aim, above all, at the removal of Saddam Hussein's regime from power. We stand ready to offer our full support in this difficult but necessary endeavor. The policy of containment of Saddam Hussein has been steadily eroding over the past several months. As recent events have demonstrated, we can no longer depend on our partners in the Gulf War coalition to continue to uphold the sanctions or to punish Saddam when he blocks or evades UN inspections. Our ability to ensure that Saddam Hussein is not producing weapons of mass destruction, therefore, has substantially diminished. Even if full inspections were eventually to resume, which now seems highly unlikely, experience has shown that it is difficult if not impossible to monitor Iraq's chemical and biological weapons production. The lengthy period during which the inspectors will have been unable to enter many Iraqi facilities has made it even less likely that they will be able to uncover all of Saddam's secrets. As a result, in the not-too-distant future we will be unable to determine with any reasonable level of confidence whether Iraq does or does not possess such weapons. Such uncertainty will, by itself, have a seriously destabilizing effect on the entire Middle East. It hardly needs to be added that if Saddam does acquire the capability to deliver weapons of mass destruction, as he is almost certain to do if we continue along the present course, the safety of American troops in the region, of our friends and allies like Israel and the moderate Arab states, and a significant portion of the world's supply of oil will all be put at hazard. As you have rightly declared, Mr. President, the security of the world in the first part of the 21st century will be determined largely by how we handle this threat. Given the magnitude of the threat, the current policy, which depends for its success upon the steadfastness of our coalition partners and upon the cooperation of Saddam Hussein, is dangerously inadequate.
The only acceptable strategy is one that eliminates the possibility that Iraq will be able to use or threaten to use weapons of mass destruction. In the near term, this means a willingness to undertake military action as diplomacy is clearly failing. In the long term, it means removing Saddam Hussein and his regime from power. That now needs to become the aim of American foreign policy.
We urge you to articulate this aim, and to turn your Administration's attention to implementing a strategy for removing Saddam's regime from power. This will require a full complement of diplomatic, political and military efforts. Although we are fully aware of the dangers and difficulties in implementing this policy, we believe the dangers of failing to do so are far greater. We believe the U.S. has the authority under existing UN resolutions to take the necessary steps, including military steps, to protect our vital interests in the Gulf. In any case, American policy cannot continue to be crippled by a misguided insistence on unanimity in the UN Security Council. We urge you to act decisively. If you act now to end the threat of weapons of mass destruction against the U.S. or its allies, you will be acting in the most fundamental national security interests of the country. If we accept a course of weakness and drift, we put our interests and our future at risk.

Sincerely,

Elliott Abrams Richard L. Armitag William J. Bennett

That is because you are one of the idiots or fools. There had NEVER been a National Guardsman charged with being AWOL with one exception. The exception being if the Guardsman was federalized. (for idiots and fools, federalized means on active duty) A guardsman that missed a drill needs to give the Commanding Officer a valid reason for his absence. All Guardsmen are required to attend a certain number of drills a year and the Commanding Officer can, at his discretion, require them to attend 'make up' drills or he can give them a less than Honorable discharge. If a Commanding Officer does not do this he is subject to disciplinary action.

George Bush flew a single seat, single engine supersonic jet and that is more than you can say about any other President. I don't know his reason for quitting flying any more than you do, but I know a lot of fighter pilots and most of them drank beer, but the 8 hours from bottle to throttle was observed by most of them. And, not a damned one of them did any drugs.

Here is what Clinton signed

The Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 is a United States Congressional statement of policy calling for regime change in Iraq. It was signed into law by President Bill Clinton, and states that it is the policy of the United States to support democratic movements within Iraq.. The Act was cited in October 2002 to argue for the authorization of military force against the Iraqi government
Findings and declaration of policy
The Act found that between 1980 and 1998 Iraq had:
1.
committed various and significant violations of
international law,
2.
had failed to comply with the obligations to which it had agreed following the
Gulf War and
3.
further had ignored resolutions of the
United Nations Security Council.

That is what the MSM does. Make up a bunch of lies about any Republican and there are idiots that actually believe it.

I don't find it the least bit difficult to believe that a C student cheerleader from Yale who couldn't even get into the University of Texas law school was someone who cut every corner he was able to. While other young men his age were dying by the thousands in Vietnam he managed to get into the same elite national guard unit that all the Dallas Cowboys were in even though the line waiting to join "the Champagne Unit" was a thousand long. Can you say, "family ties?"
