Another nail in the coffin of Kerry's candidacy. When it rains, it pours. Still think bringing your Vietnam "service" to the forefront was a good idea, Johnbo?
Bill O'Reilly is drinking Kool Aid! He's gone over to the dark side!!!
No problem. The democrats have been pushing that exact link for over a year to support their inaccurate assessment of Bush's Guard record. But that's like using NCAA basketball rules to dispute an NBA decision. Apples and oranges. Big surprise isn't it.
If this keeps up, Kerry is gonna blow an artery in his brain the size of a garden hose. ;'D
Major Pain, er, Payne, er, PING.
120 days? Uh, isn't that four months? Four months... where have we heard that interval used in a campaign before... hmm... lemme think...
I think this whole issue about Vietnam is about much more than just helping one candidate or another. I believe we are "refighting" the whole social unrest of the late 60's and 70's. The hippies who protested on the street are now the Kerrys and Dan Rathers of the world. Now they are doing across the airwaves. The venue has changed, but I believe the unsettled issues of VN are being fought again. The election is just the backdrop. I really don't think the dems are so stupid as to keep fighting a 30 year old war to just try and get Bush defeated. There is more to this I believe. Rather has just totally lost all objectivity. This CBS story has less proof and corroboration that stories in the National Enquirer. I mean at least some of those have some parts that are true. This would be a great opportunity for one of the MSM (NBC, ABC, CNN) to get their integrity and viewership back. They could aggressively go after CBS and Dan Rather on this. They would gain the top spot and regain a lot of respect from million of views. I mean, most of them know that Kerry is going to loose anyway.

Table 4.1. Unit Organizational Award--AFOUA, AFOEA. (See notes 1-5.)
If the unit or organization is a Air National Guard
unit, AND the achievement or services were performed all or partly while (Extended Active Duty, then the recommendation must be initiated by the unit commander or
higher level and recommendations must be by the organization that exercises control over the unit. Bush was on EAD.
BearCub said to the DU loser:
Sure, go to http://162.58.35.241/aadatabase/login.asp and search for George Bush, DOB 07/06/1946. He holds a commercial pilot's license with single engine, multi-engine and instrument ratings.
You asked...
My God, these guys are grasping at straws...
-bc
Bush was on active duty for the whole 2 years of training to be a pilot.
OUR forger turns out much more credible looking documents than THEIR forger, that's for sure.
Pathetic, isn't it?
OMG!!!!!!!!!
ROFLMAO!!! This is too much, too scary... My Lawd, outfits even Gary Condit might (might) avoid!
As long as every media outlet is talking nonstop about CBS and Bush NG service, there is nothing coming out about Kerry and his antiAmerican past. JMHO
LOLOL!!!
To quote Lucianne..
I did not have font with Times Roman.
Tonight while I was slogging my way through traffic I had a "visual". W and Kerry were both in quicksand. W was floating quietly on his back with a cigar in one hand and a beer in the other. Kerry was thrashing around like a scared animal who knows what's coming...
I can't believe the dems keep falling for this bullsh!t. First the deal with that ribbon started by Walt Starr at DU - then the memos - now the "Bush was never in the Air Force like his 1970-something campaign crap said he was" waaaaaaaaaaaambulance call.
EVERY SINGLE TIME the dems line up and start cheering like they've struck the motherlode. EVERY SINGLE TIME they get smacked down. You'd think they'd learn & stick with real issues. My God, even the former Fornicator-in-Chief told Kerry to lay off the war crap! These people have no concept of checking or rechecking their sources. If it's anti-Bush it's good, truth-be-damned - they go with it. This will end up costing them the election if only because they'll alienate the old-phart veteran vote. Even the more thoughtful Democrat posters on DU are saying this.
I expect Kerry is backing further away from FORM 180 after watching FReepers take apart the phony memos last week. He probably had his military records packed with forgeries. What to do what to do........LOL
EVERY SINGLE TIME the dems line up and start cheering like they've struck the motherlode. EVERY SINGLE TIME they get smacked down. True. Which brings up the question, Why should we trust such idiots to secure our liberty?
Waiting for the Soviet bombers to arrive....definately a high risk occupation.
As a FReeper posted yesterday:
What was the F102? A nice little fun airplane? No. Then, as now, flying jet fighters was dangerous work (that's spelled d-a-n-g-e-r-o-u-s for you dopey Democrat lurkers).
How dangerous? Go to the Air Force Safety Center to find out. The F102, described by Tom Wolfe in The Right Stuff as a deadly "brick with fins, had a frightening accident rate.
It was more dangerous than any aircraft currently in the US arsenal. More dangerous than the F-15 or the F-16 by a factor of 3 or 4. Of 875 built, 289 crashed or were otherwise destroyed in accidents.
Seventy pilots were killed in training accidents. Are the Kerry Kennel's Press Poodles now going to tell the families of those pilots about their "lack of courage and service?" Is this yet another way for Kerry to smear the service of those in the Armed Forces during Vietnam? .
Bush served the first two years of his ANG commitment in the Air Force. This was not week-end or occasional duty, it was full-time. Somewhere somebody claimed that Bush served as many days in the service as Kerry.
Someone should still check that out. it was very close, at any rate. He definitely served more days than his 2000 opponent, Al Gore.
Even if Blather's docs were originals, I thought character didn't matter to these hypocrite POS!
