He summed it up by calling this the "silly season".
Chris Wallace calls it silly. Susan Estrich smiles, laughs (hyena-like) and thinks it is all a riot. Alan Colmes repeats (parrott-like) its a smear campaign, its a smear campaign ....
Those are the sights and sounds of Republicans scoring points. It must continue.
To: Happy2BMe
Thank goodness for FR and Fox news channel, otherwise we would all be in for a long year. Any bets Cnn would try to get him as guest.

***How many came through? Couple hundred in five years.***
It is so obvious that no one in the dim presscorps has a clue about national guard service. Kerry should since he was in the Naval Reserve from 1972-1978. None of his staff seem to have a clue either.

Yes, I did, I thank you all at FR for your efforts in getting the word out. A lot of my fellow National Guardsman here weren't aware that they are not in the *Real Military*.

Thanks for the ping, Mo.
I was in the Air Force at the same time, not the National Guard. I was in radar ground operations, nothing as dangerous as flying. So I can't speak to the finer details of this, but the overall flavor of it sure rings true.
My papers ended up at that same Colorado 'disciplinary' unit - that's where papers went when you became inactive.

I just heard .. he did a telephone interview
The email Linda read from a viewer was funny ..

The eyewitness just came on (for about 3 minutes) via telephone conference from his home in Alabama.
He was asked, "Did anyone from the White House ask you to speak on behalf of the president."
Answer: No
The conversation revolved around whether or not Bush was doing political campaign work when he was supposed to be doing his Air Guard commitment.
Again, the answer was No. Bush went back to Texas for the weekend to pull his guard duty, then came back to Alabama.
Final analysis was you just don't get paid by the guard if you don't show up. Bush got paid.
If there is one weak spot, it is that Bush allowed his flight status to lapse by not showing up for a physical.
The assumption there is of course he was smoking weed or something he wanted to hide in a physical.
All conjecture.

Not really. The colonel points out above that they were not in pilot slots and that it was no big deal to let your flight status lapse.
