Former Sen. Max Cleland, who ought to know better, is telling a lie about Bush's service, claiming "Bush was AWOL and was kicked out of the Alabama National Guard." Neither part of Cleland's statement is true.

Now there's a shock: Max Cleland telling a lie. Wait 'til I tell the rest of Georgia < /sarc>.

You signed up tomorrow? I read that veterans of the Alabama Air National Guard have offered a $1000 reward to any of their 600-700 fellow Guardsmen who served at the time Bush says he did and who can recall serving with him. So far not one has come forward to claim that he recalls Bush serving at that time.

How about a source for that claim?

The RATS are just trying to blunt any questions that might arise about Kerry's Post Viet Nam treachery.

I read that trolls are into gay sex, is that true or is it true only with dem-trolls.

Democrats were caught in this lie once before. They're getting caught again. The more they lie, the better it is for us. Lieing politicians are as hated as trial lawyers.

Interesting, considering that Bush was in the Texas Air National Guard.

Do you really want to get anywhere close to the source for those claims?

I think the Rats miscalculated the backlash they would get about this AWOL thing. They were better off when it just inhabited sites like DU. Thanks a lot Michael Moore!

(Interesting, considering that Bush was in the Texas Air National Guard. -- post # 11). No wonder no one has claimed the $1000. None of them served in Texas! LOL. That's a funny one! LOL. DUH!

Well W did serve in the Alabama Guard ,I think with the 187th in Montgomery. He requested, and received permission, to miss drills and made them up per the regs. He performed his duties in a manner most exemplary. By the way, his Houston unit has a very distinguished history as did the unit in Bama. Col Turnipseed is being given a pass ,I suppose , in respect for his age.I think there is something there left unspoken. Bush's record s all there for anyone to see.

It so appears. I think the ineffectiveness of this tactic is borne out with the crawfishing, desperate attempts to deflect the whole story.

But on the brighter side, since THEY decided to refight Vietnam, we should have not hesitancy in bringing forth all of Kerry's treachery following his service in Vietnam. Followed by his gutting of intelligence, and the fact he opposed every major weapon system we now depend on. This should be like shooting fish in a barrel.
