"I flew fighters, I was part of the air defense command system....."Had Bush been in the TX Air National Guard now, he would be one of the fighter pilots that are flying F-16's in Combat Air Patrols (CAP) around the US and escorting suspect airliners onto the ground. Whether Bush was POTUS or in the TX, ANG, on Sept 11th. 2001, he would still have been airborne in defense of the country.

And let's not forget that it was F-16's of the 147th Fighter Squadron, TXARNG that escorted Air Force One from Florida, to Barksdale AFB to D.C. on Sept. 11th. THey launched from Ellington Field in Houston and joined up with AF One over the Gulf of Mexico.
