Here's the Time magazine biography of Micael Duffy. It says he graduated from college in 1980 and joined Time in 1985 after working at Defense Week magazine. That doesn't leave many windows of opportunity to have served in the military.
http://www.time-planner.com/planner/about_time/bios/senior_editorial_staff/michael_duffy.html We could have a little fun with the Time magazine reporting style: "Some have speculated that Duffy elected not to serve because he was dodging allegations of . . . . But no evidence has yet come to light to support such a charge."

President George W Bush: possibly (but not able to be proven) AWOL THIRTY YEARS AGO -- currently kicking Islamikaze ass as Commander in Chief
Democrats: anti-America THIRTY YEARS AGO -- currently AWOL in the war on terror.
Who would you vote for to protect your freedom and liberty?
Would you like to know more?

I agree with you. I am sick to death over these left wing demorats. At least they can't say that President Bush committed treason like Old Kerry did by running down our country & our honorable servicemen & women. Also they cannot connect him to hanoi Jane. Enough said..Period

What a pathetic pile of drivel. And it took seven people to write this trashy gossip!
I wonder if they have seven reporters scrutinizing Kerry's activities during this period?

Memaw,I just read some threads regarding Kerry's actions in the POW hearings and also his involvment in the VVAW,(I think thats right)and iam in complete shock the demidiots would even consider this trecherous man as Presidential material.
and the fact that the press thinks the Presidents NG records are fair game but take a gloved approach to Kerry's record is so disgusting and i hate to say this but it's completely unfair. I have known for many years the press is not to be trusted but now they are so in our faces with there bias and hate that it has me worried about how the uninterested voter would see all this. some say it will backfire how can we be so sure? tell a lie enough it becomes truth,i know. i was quite duped by the nightlys and the mainstream press when i was a lot younger.
as i grew older i started questioning the things that were put out for our consumption and it didnt ring true any longer.but im in the minority and most folks just take at face value what press spoonfeeds thems and say wow . Kerry is a danger to our freedoms and i would never vote for a man like him to lead the country. Bush is a great leader and a man with lots of patience to put up with the slander and lies day after day.may god bless him and keep him,amen.

You mean something like this?

Exactly -- now you're getting in the spirit of modern journalism!

If the word TIME doesn't explain this pablum, then this should: "Archibald, now a trial attorney in North Carolina..."
Both are professional liars. [I know, I am a bad boy and should be ashamed of myself].

GHWB(his dad) was then just a lowly congressman in a Texas legislature. Actually, Papa Bush was defeated in 1970 when he tried to advance to the U.S. Senate. His congressional career was over by May 1972. He was U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations at this time. That makes him even more of a nobody.
To: LadyDoc
All of what you mentioned about drug testing is true, but that's not my point. My point is that the reporter slipped in an inference that Bush was a drug user and therefore avoided his Class II Flight Physical to hide drug use. There's absolutely no evidence of that. It's just more Bush trashing. There's numerous reasons why he failed to keep his Flight Physical current, not the least of which is not being in a position or provided the option to be placed in a duty status in order to report for the physical exam. This is a fairly common occurence with Reserve Component aviators, especially if they are in between unit assignments and/or in the Individual Ready Reserve. This happened to me on two seperate occasions for the very reasons mentioned.
