What bad reputation? What is it with the rumor that Bush skipped out on his duty in the guard? Any truth to that?

Re: 1814--the libs just won't let it go.

He was released from active duty, can't remember the whole story, but the war was over, he was either campaigning for his father, or getting ready to go to grad school, and applied for release, from what I'm trying to remember now.

I don't remember all the details, but some people can't get over it.

It just kills them that he actually was a fighter pilot.

DU-ers say yes, the known facts say
no. His record was spotless. He flew
all assigned missions. The murky end
to his Guard days did involve a time
when he was allowed to work on a
political campaign in Alabama along
with not showing up for "musters" of
his unit. However, his superiors were
ok with it all, apparently.

Because the F-102 that he flew was
phased out prior to when his service
was set to end.

Big hairy deal. Some "bad record"!
