MOORE LIED

"I want to see that debate: the general versus the deserter," Moore said to enthusiastic applause at a packed rally in a high-school gymnasium, reiterating a line he uses frequently. '

He was honorably discharged 8 months before the end of his six year hitch in the Air National Guard. They were retiring the jet fighter plane he flew, the F-102, and they don't waste time cross-training pilots on another plane when they have less than a year to go.

To say Bush is a deserter is a fallacy. Moore is a desserter he eats five apple crisps a day.

Thanks for clearing that up. I never heard what that was about.

Correct. The Alabama guard, iirc, had no planes with which to train. The honorable discharge says everything anyone needs to know. It's bulls*it.

We know that, adam, but notice the reporter chose to not include that, merely says it "revives" a controversy, then recites the elements that hint there may be something to these Moore/Clark ravings.

I also submit that any decent reporter would point out the Shelton comments. Since Clark has chosen to question the service of President Bush, a good reporter would have informed readers there are also questions about Clark's service.
