Heh, last week I had emailed Rich Lowery a link to Hon's thread about his telephone conversation with Turnipseed suggesting that Natl Review needed to jump on it. Appears they did.

Now if they can just get the facts staight about what David Kay said. This NG story is being cleared up and will go away now because Kerry wants it to go away.

Great post....Now I demand to see Kerry's military records.....but not till after the convention.

"Even when John Calhoun, the man who remembers Bush in Alabama, sent the White House an e-mail saying he had useful information, he received a stock response, without any indication the White House was interested in what he had to say."

This bespeaks of over-confidence. W reminds me of my own kid, in both his assets and his liabilities. Over-confidence is one of the latter that they both share.

He better be prepared to really RUN for re-election, we need him to be our prez. He better not sit back and let any of the dwarves sneak in the back door.

Turnipseed ping!

York is a dreamer! I hate it when people do this!

York is using logic and persuasive evidence to argue his position. The vicious and sleazy crap weasels aren't interested in logic! They know what they believe and aren't interested in facts! When are we going to learn this??

Some scumbag dem will review all that material and find some insignificant error ("AUGUST 6, 1972 WAS A WEDNESDAY, NOT A THURSDAY") and take it as proof of everything they have been told to believe but the self-loathing Bush haters. I guarantee that you'll hear about this issue all the way up to election, often mentioned by left wing media presstitutes who'll tlk about Bush rumors but require absolute proof about Kerry's girlfriends or Dean's abortions.

The White House may have played this silly game too much. Thus, every other viscious rumor that does not get extensive response by Bush will be presumed to be true because of the difference. The only positive is that we can turn this same logic on Kerry. I will want to see the terms of his prenuptual agreement especially to see what the effect of his attack on tax breaks for the wealthy would be on his own and the Widow Heinz's wealth.

Counting other, shorter, postings in between, by the end of his training period Bush had served two years on active duty.

Isn't this something like 600% of the time that Kerry was in Vietnam?

An excellent piece, but Mr. York has failed to consider the possibility that the White House doesn't want this issue to go away. Bashing everyone who served in the Vietnam era in a capacity other than combat in Vietnam as a draft dodger is loopy. And keeping Vietnam alive as an issue is even loopier in light of Kerry's Vietnam veteran bashing and pacifist voting record. Did you notice President Bush personally paid the Guard a visit?

Bump for later reading.
