Democratic National Committee 'Action Alert' E-mail By Democratic National Committee CNSNews.com Information Services September 10, 2004
(Editor's Note: The following is the text of an "action alert" e-mail sent Friday morning from the Democratic National Committee.)
Dear [Supporter],
Back in February, President Bush sat down in the Oval Office for an interview with Tim Russert and spoke about his service in the National Guard. Bush told us, "I put in my time, proudly so." He said, "And I'm telling you, I did my duty."
But now we know that Bush dishonored the Oval Office by lying to the American people.
New investigations from multiple media sources have revealed the truth about President Bush's service. New military documents show that Bush disobeyed a direct order from his commander to take a flight physical and "failed to perform to U.S. Air Force/Texas Air National Guard standards" -- and was grounded as a result.
New evidence supports claims that Bush missed months of service and that he never showed up for service with the Alabama National Guard.
New evidence shows that Bush received special treatment. His supervisor wrote that he felt pressured from above to "sugar coat" Bush's records.
And Ben Barnes, former Lt. Governor and State House Speaker of Texas, has come forward to say that he pulled strings to get Bush a coveted spot in the Guard, which directly contradicts Bush's claim that he received no special treatment.
Only Bush Can Answer Questions
President Bush has a lot to answer for. Only he can clear up the questions regarding the discrepancies in his service record, and he owes the American people those answers. Here are just a few of the questions Bush must answer.
Why did George Bush say "I did my duty" when he missed months of duty in 1972, 73 and 74?
How did George Bush avoid getting called into active service for missing months of duty in 1972, 73, and 74?
Why did George Bush disobey a direct order to take his physical?
What standard did George Bush fail to meet when he was grounded for failing to perform at US Air Force/Texas Air National Guard Standards?
Why did George Bush go above his commander's head to ensure a favorable evaluation he had not earned?
Why did George Bush say he received "no special treatment" when Ben Barnes says he pulled strings to secure a Guard slot for him?
Who asked Bush family friend Sidney Adger to get Bush a slot in the Guard immediately after Bush graduated and at the height of the Vietnam War?
When will George Bush produce any credible witness who can attest to his service in the Alabama Air National Guard?
Take Action
You can help us hold Bush accountable. Sign our petition to President Bush and demand that he answer the American people's questions about his Guard service.
Make sure the pressure stays on Bush and make sure the media holds him responsible. Write a letter to the editor of your local paper about the questions you have for President Bush.
How many idiots believe this garbage, other than the braindead at DU?
What is really so funny is that they are putting this up against Bush and supporting a traitor who got comrades tortured.
President Bush - Please continue to call Kerry's service honorable every chance you get.

The DNC has nothing else! Kerry has nothing to show for 20 yrs in the Senate...they are holding on to air on this issue.
The phrase "rearranging deck chairs" springs to mind after reading that call to action.
Bubba's lewinsky obviously did no harm.
Toast.

No more phone calls.........we have a winner.
He's a democrat, it's not in their nature to be honorable.
Will KERRY EVER RELEASE HIS MILITARY RECORDS?
Well... Technology has finally caught up with CBS. The end of subtle deception from Dan Rather's practice of "spiking" politically damaging Democrat stories with impunity; the end of unchallenged "spin" and bias thanks to talk radio and the Internet.
Now technology bites you again thanks to Microsoft Word...
Now, the forging of phony hit pieces during an election cycle has been removed from your bag of sleaze.
Even your obvious vote tampering 4 years ago... calling Florida for Gore way early to suppress the Republican vote in the central time zone... has been uncovered and removed from your bag of corruption.
This is only the beginning....You and the other similar Democrat shill news organizations have had your time... It's over CBS ...and lol I guess you had better retire "Danny Boy" He's had it!!!...LOL
The democratic motto lie, lie and than lie
Dear Democratic National Committee :
#^%! off And while your doing that take a slow boat to bum $^%@ Egypt and hang out with your pal Osama you bunch of communist goat lovers !
One thing about this election cycle that I find hilarious is the constant drumbeat pounding by the DNC of the militant phrase "Take Action." The tone is the most Orwellian of any party stance in my lifetime. I get an image of lobotomized minions taking all talking points coming from high atop the DNC headquaters and following all of them implicitly.. taking action. The disturbing thing is number of previously rational dems answering the call.
The DNC is just trying to bolster Clinton's legacy with lies.
The DNC is just trying to bolster Clinton's legacy with lies.
I think they have given up on Kerry.
By inference, they are saying that Clinton did so when he lied to the American people. Nice to see they finally admit that.
