His Alabama unit commander, in an interview, said Bush never appeared for duty.
Actually that is a lie. Turnipseed did not remember Bush showing up and even admitted that he (Turnispeed) was not around all that much during that time period.


Actually, Turnipseed has a horrible memory. I know him personally. My husband was full time in the Alabama Guard unit in question and served for 35 years. He worked with Turnipseed for years. Hubby was in Ops during the time in question. He said they had so many people in and out from other units making drills, it's no wonder nobody can say for sure who was where. The war was winding down and folks were getting out early right and left. As far as we're concerned Bush has proven his CIC ablity and everything else is irrelevant. The Dems don't want to put all their hopes in Turnipseed's recollections. Too many folks around here can tell tales about his absent mindedness.

Do either of you have any published accounts of Turnipseed backpedaling?

And Himyar, you and/or your husband should get on Rush Limbaugh with that story!

Also, see the link to the "pre-buttal" article I posted, a few posts above.
