You accuse me of spreading disinformation and lies. I am not. I will agree that President Bush received an honorable discharge. However, I am still curious as to why his OER says that he didn't attend his training. Do you think that it is patriotic to blindly accept assertions without demanding proof?

Are you from Nebraska? That would explain a lot.

Do you think that it is patriotic to blindly accept assertions without demanding proof? You have been provided ALL the proof that is needed on this very thread. To further whine that you don't know the facts (and just choose to ignore them) makes you look more and more irrelevant.

Which OER? The one in Alabama? Have you read his entire comments when asked? He says, at best, he just doesn't remember and was too dang busy to bother. He also then commented later that he's not even sure his time as Commander of the Alabama Guard even coincided with Bush's transfer there.
Also, many, many others from back in those days have (links found mostly in blogs since the "mainstream" press isn't about facts) have written about their tours in the Guard and paperwork was a constant problem, especially with transfers.
Also, Bush, during flight training in Texas, front loaded a lot of his commitment that was used to cover his sporadic attendance in Alabama. Also, the "one weekend a month" rule is hardly written in stone and for a variety of simple reasons (family, job, school, etc.) can be skipped for later or waived. Happens all the time.
