I do not know whether President Bush flew one-third of the way to the aircraft carrier. However, assuming that he did, I am still not aware of any evidence that his suspension from flight status had ever been lifted. Your argument is similar to the argument that if someone drives a car while their drivers license has been suspended that they, therefore, have authority to drive. Where is the evidence that President Bush had legal authority to fly the plane to the aircraft carrier?

Ummm...HELLO! He's the President Of The United States. Maybe you might also know him as the COMMANDER AND CHIEF of the Armed Forces of The United States! If he want's to fly the plane half way to the carrier, HE CAN! If he wants to be the gunner in an M1A1 Abrahams tank HE CAN!

Good Grief. You seem like the type that if an NCO had told you to drop and give him twenty you'd have asked him who gave him the right to do that to you.

*sigh*

Husker, you're making a fool of yourself, not that we mind, but I'm not wasting any time on W's service. Search the NYT, they agree this is a non story.

Really? It's common knowledge.

From Gym bar to George Bush

President Bush "enjoyed the heck out of" his 20 minutes at the controls of a Navy S-3B Viking, flying at more than 400 mph across the Pacific, according to the Marquette University graduate who turned the stick over to the president.

Commander John "Skip" Lussier, who left Marquette and The Gym bar in 1985, said he gave Bush the controls shortly after they took off from San Diego on Thursday and let the president return to his days in the Texas Air National Guard. Except for the landing.

"As an Air National Guard pilot, going to the carrier and doing carrier landings was not part of his repertoire," Lussier said.

He said Bush flew in formation and handled the airplane like an "old aviator."
