Authentic or not, Bush memos no big deal to retired guardsmen
U.S. Servicemen React to Bush Guard Memos (spreading the lie)
Allegations of suspect conduct during the Vietnam war also have been leveled at John Kerry, who won three Purple Hearts, a Silver Star and a Bronze Star in Vietnam.
A group sponsoring television ads challenging his wartime record contends Kerry's own gunfire caused the wound that brought his first Purple Heart. Navy records and other veterans do not support the charge.
Ahmad Majied of Albany (GA) says the latest allegations about Bush's military record are more troubling to him than allegations about service honors leveled at Democratic challenger Kerry.
Majied, a Democrat from Albany who served 30 years in the Navy, including five years as a SEAL in Vietnam, said the memos support his belief that Bush was a "playboy" during his service years.
"He had enough money to get what he wanted," Majied said. "I think his main concern was not to go to Southeast Asia. I bet he never dreamed it would come back to haunt him."

NOT A SEAL
Thanks for checking with us - we greatly appreciate your interest in upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams, and your search for the TRUTH. If the name you provided was "spelled accurately", we do NOT have a listing for anyone named "Majied" in our entire database of slightly more than 10,000 names. Unless he has undertaken the unlikely action of a full legal name change since his claimed service with the SEAL Teams, I can state conclusively that the man NEVER completed SEAL training, and thus he is not now, nor was he ever a Navy SEAL. While there are other training steps that must be completed on the path to becoming a SEAL, BUD/S training is the first and most vital, and that training course is totally unclassified. Without having first completed BUD/S training, a man cannot go on to become a SEAL. There are definitely secret SEAL missions, but despite anything the man might have said, there are NO secret SEALs. If you choose to confront the man regarding his fraudulent SEAL claims, please show him this email message and invite him to contact me - a real SEAL - directly by email with information that will support his claims. I'd enjoy hearing his stories first hand, but I've extended this offer to literally thousands of individuals over the last three years, and in all that time I've received only a scant handful of replies, so I don't really expect to hear from him either.
Again, please visit our web page www.authentiseal.org/realitycheck.htm for some very specific information related to the realities of SEAL training, SEAL duties, and the claims most often made by SEAL imposters.
Thank you again for your assistance in upholding the honor of the US Navy SEAL Teams.

You know, if we are going to respond with facts and disprove their lies every time the pull some scumbag trick, we are going to hurt their feelings!
GET REAL!!!!! I took off my Mighty Mouse PJs two hours ago. Now I'm in my terry cloth bathrobe (not really)
#61 is for you as well.
With a name like that, he's more than likely been a guest at one of the fine hotels run by the NY State Department of Corrections.
Let's be careful. He may have converted to Islam and changed his name AFTER completing his SEAL duties/career.
Ahmad or Ahmed is a variant of Mohammad, which is pronounced more like "Mahmet" in the Middle East.
So are you going to notify the AP that they have been "caught" not checking facts?
According to the ex-CBS exec, bloggers and Freepers do.
Personally, I prefer sweats.
If you saw her, believe me, you would not want to boink her.
Maybe Ellen Degenerate or some other freak might want to, but not any normal person.
LOL

Called AP Atlanta Bureau.
"Harry" said they will be on this tomorrow.
We'll see.
for your http://newsignored.blogspot.com/ site?
I do not believe that "checking" had anything to do with this fraudulent AP story. I think it is more likely that the AP simply made up the whole "SEAL" connection to try to add credibility to their smear job.
It is becoming more and more evident every week that the scumbags who work at places like CBS and AP routinely use forgeries and lies to embellish and add "credibilty" to their stories. You can only wonder in horror how many undetected forged documents and bold-faced lies have been generated by liberal news organizations like CBS and AP over the decades.
SMOOCH!!!!
Just Instructional Training to MSM that FR is a force to be reckoned with.
We meed to keep it up. LET THEM FEAR US.
