WONDERFUL article!!

[Iowa Granny]

A great read

Didn't the Democrats also bitch about a GW photo taken on AF-1 on 9-11. What is their problem? And where is that picture?

[Zavien Doombringer]

I believe it is essential that any of our Commanders'in Chief have some military exerience. I wouldn't vote for anything less. How can one lead if they never followed? It took Clintoon 8 years to salute decently, he never learned to do it correctly. That should tell you how he felt about the military!

[Enterprise]

"Against this background, liberals are now saying there should be a wall of separation between commanders-in-chief and their prior military experience."

All together now - somebody call a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaambulance!!!

[Toidylop]

Just can't help but to tell the DEMs keep on digging!!! Ya gotta love it

[Enterprise]

I hope the Republicans make 8X10 photos of Bush in the flight suit and posing with the sailors immediately available for party members. And I hope that they use the footage extensively in 2004.

[Clint N. Suhks]

And it's driving liberals nuts.

Ha Ha!

[Havoc]

Great article. Bumpity bump!!

Kennedy lost his boat, he stood a real chance of being severely reprimanded, but of course, dad stepped in.

[princess leah]

Well, if military service is what the dems need, they got John Heinz Kerry for their front runner!!! They could just save their billions of campaign dollars and put it all into the treasury and cut the deficit...

Support the President by voting in USAToday's quick poll:
"Should President Bush have made a tailhook landing on the aircraft carrier USS Lincoln?"

[scroll down to "Washington" header -- look for the article entitled "Bush's jet landing draws criticism" Vote: Was it justified?]

[Inspectorette]

Their problem is that this President just looks SO GOOD!!! When you think of movie stars who've played presidents in recent years (Harrison Ford, Bill Pullman) - they looked good, but W looks BETTER than these movie stars. Not only that, he's the real deal!! He is a pilot, he loves our troops, and they love him!

The Dems are shrieking, screeching hyenas who have totally lost all sense of reality. Look at who they're sending out to criticize - Nostrildamus Waxman, "Sheets" Byrd, Whiny-Voiced Conyers, and Shrieking "Mad Max" Waters. Could they have ever conjured up any less attractive faces to slam our President?

[Jagdgewehr]

I'm waiting for some Democrat to ambiguously link President Bush to a past issue by introducing the term "TAILHOOK" in the outcry.

[OldFriend]

Better a picture of President Bush in his flight suit than a picture of Senator Byrd in his white sheets and conehead hat.

[week 71]

This is a good read.

[pabianice]

Bush qualified as an F-102 aircraft commander in the national guard. Whether or not you think he did the Guard to avoid serving in Vietnam, he's earned and worn a flight suit before.

and more, feminists do not like the re-emergence of the white military male. and, black, latino, asian, males.

they thought they had dispatched macho men after the vietnam war debacle.

and, more, they don't like military women. women who serve in the military do not share feminist ideology.
