I have to agree with you. I defended “W” many times. He was a USAF pilot training graduate and an Air National Guard pilot. He did not see active duty, as I did, but he did hang his butt out flying the F-102. I understand his being questioned about the guard drills etc. I flew with the ANG after I left active duty and the rules are such that the average person would question them. I was responsible to fly the required time, fill the required squares and the unit allowed me to create my own schedule to work around my airline flying schedule. The system works and screw Dan Rather!
But, back to “W,” he was such a disappointment that I have to disown him. He turns out to be a nothing burger who involved us in several wars. His pique, inherited from GHW Bush, sent troops to Iraq with dubious reason.
He was not dumb but he never displayed any sign of wisdom!
No Respect from me either.
Good morning, Col. Guano. I felt and feel the same about W. I loved and defended him even as he declined to defend himself from the Dems and media, especially in his last couple of years before Barak the Usurper ascended the Throne.
And, yes, screw Rather He’s just a Lee Harvey Oswald wannabe and his great ambition was to take down W, not with a rifle but phony docs with phony fonts. A frame job all the way. (Fraud and frame jobs are two the Left’s favorite things.)
It hurt me to realize what an amoral man he really is and feel my affection turn to disrespect and contempt.
