The present US president George Bush was trained to intercept Soviet bomber carrier TU-95 Bear aircraft while he was in the Texas Air National Guard.
The US archives and retired colonel William Kampenii, Mr. President’s fellow soldier since 1970 till 1971 have proved this fact.
‘Pilots from Air National Guard used to intercept TU-95 regularly. The Bears used to make patrol flights, the aircrafts were usually intercepted along the eastern US coast, sometimes just near Cuba,’ says colonel Kampenii.
George Bush J. reminisces in his autobiography A Charge To Keep how they were taught to direct to the target with the help of the radar, how to remain unnoticeable or simulate aerial combat maneuvers.
This year TU-95 were used by Russia Air Forces again since the end of the Cold War.
I thought he never showed up for duty?
Thats what Dan Blather told us, was he telling us a lie?
Again?
Has Dan Rather ever in his life told the truth?
This one really isn't Navair related, but I thought some of you other Cold Warriors would be as interested in this as I was. It's easy for us to forget that Bear Chicken wasn't just a Navy game.
Click on pic for past Navair pings.
Post or FReepmail me if you wish to be enlisted in or discharged from the Navair Pinglist.
This is a medium to low volume pinglist.
When he wasn't not showing up for duty, he was training to shoot down peaceful baby milk tankers of the Soviet Union and kill their aircrews.
Meanwhile, Gore flunked out of divinity college -
God Bless this Texas cowboy
Wow, the Russians just figured this out? What did they think the F-106 was, a fluffy bunny?
And all this time I thought that he was AWOL!
Somebody should send this to the MSM, I’m sure they’ll want to correct the record.
I passed divinity school, actually you gotta be quite stupid to flunk out there.
gore also flunked out of law school at Vandy.
Its George W. Bush, not George Bush J.
and
Its George W. Bush, not George Bush J.
it's "W" like in "Dubb-l-ya" 
"Fortunately, it isn't necessary": Hillary Clinton.
It’s always amused me to consider how the media would have spun the respective military records of George W. Bush and John F. Kerry if their roles had been reversed, it would have sounded something like this:
“Lt. John F. Kerry served in the Massachusetts Air National Guard, specially trained in the highly dangerous F-102 Interceptor, a plane which required precision skill as a pilot, and Lt. Kerry was prepared at all times to intercept Soviet nuclear bombers, had World War III begun with a surprise strike from Moscow. Lt. Kerry was on the front lines of the Cold War, performing a dangerous task, and all of America should be grateful.”
“Meanwhile, Lt. George W. Bush was engaging in questionable military escapades in Vietnam, receiving combat decorations for what can be described at best as ‘exaggerated wounds’, and then-Lt. Bush freely admitted that he had knowledge of fellow servicemen behaving like barbarians, committing war crimes and atrocities which any civilized nation should be ashamed of. While it is uncertain what Lt. Bush’s true views on the Vietnam war were at that time, it is certain that he violated the Logan Act when he traveled to Paris France to engage in private negotiations with the Communists, and to this day it is not known what was discussed. Such an individual who shows such disregard for international law, for the laws of the United States, who has such a disregard for human decency, has no business seeking the Presidency of the United States.”
Yep, I think it would have sounded something like that.

Actually, Bush flew an F-102, like in your photo.
