Yes indeed, Hodges, while in the Texas National Guard, was flying the F102 in Vietnam when Bush went into the ANG>

Here's just one of many places to find this:

http://www.lincolnheritage.org/About_Us/Resources/Weekly_Magazine/New_Articles/F-102__Vietnam___George_W__Bus/f-102__vietnam___george_w__bus.html

I'm not smart enough to make it into a live link.

The untold part of the whole sorry Bush/ANG smear is that like CBS, the Lamestream press is so narrowly focused on "Digging Up Dirt On Bush" (hereafter called "DUDOB,") that they sail right past lots of other very interesting and easly found contraries.

The F102, according to the figures of the Air Force Safety Center was 3 times as dangerous as today's fighter plains.

Also, SEVENTY pilots were KILLED in crashes or accidents with the Delta series. I could be wrong, but I think that's quite a bit higher than the number of dead Swift Boat Pilots. Yet the subscript for the Lamestream Press remains: "Bush was a coward."

We have just GOT to do something about this!

Thank you so much for the information. Great reply!
