I saw that. Thanks.

LOL. Every time she sees Bill Clinton on TV, she changes the channel, so there's no danger of that.
I think W.'s appeal to women is actually pretty simple- despite what popular media might have us think, women are attracted to integrity and honesty.

And land at cruise speed (ha).
I think a Delta Dart landed somewhere around 160 KTS IAS if I remember correctly.

As you're probably aware the Dart is the F-106 and Dagger is the F-102. Similar airframes but different engines, tails and other features. The 106 was vastly better than the older 102. I think GWB flew 102's. Not sure about landing or take off speeds until I get home my reference library. I doubt that WJC would have had the guts to fly either. In a 2 seat situation like the recent Viking Carrier Landing the pilot probably would have reached over and ejected WJC. What a shame that didn't happen to ol WJC.

The Delta Dart replaced the Delta Dagger. These aircraft originally were assigned to the ADC. I think the Alaskan Air Command may have had them, too. The 106 was retired when TAC took the ADC role in the early 80's. The F-106's were replaced with F-15A's.
I doubt if WJC would have the guts to ride in any military fighting machine. Don't worry about The Hildebeast making a carrier landing, brooms aren't equipped with tailhooks.

ADC is correct but both marks were still in ANG service at the time GWB was flying.

I am certain the ships are safe though. She doesn't want the possibility of missing a landing, and falling in the ocean. She would melt.

Patrick Leahy beat Bush to it.
It's OK for democrats to don a flight suit but not republicans.

Bubba didn't like flight suits because they just didn't lend themselves to being worn around the ankles.A great mental picture of a such a dashing figure, LOL!

This is hillarious! If this a
bona fide picture of Leahy (who?) then all dems must suffer inherently from the "Dukakis Curse." If I'm not mistaken, he fell over backwards just after the camera took this image.
(Notice in the picture, that Leahy's cane is just outside the view...on his left.)

"It's not the suit, it's the man". This is so true and this man, President Bush, is a decent, honorable man who also plays a good hand of poker, in theory. And he's winning! All the Dems have to offer is Waxman and Byrd. Very pitiful. God Bless President Bush, our military and America.

furthermore, he exposed his bare head in all settings, even the most formal. According to the latest news, he exposed more that his head.
Oh oh, I see an opportunity for a great followup to this post, hahahha.

Maybe I'm just naive, but I didn't actually notice the "genital enhancing uniform" until it was mentioned here on FR.
I believe the actual quote was "Bush is hung like Secretariat." After that, I checked out the uniform.
No wonder the RATS are upset. Gore had to have his airbrushed...Bush is genuinely...shall we say...verile! HAHAHAHAHA
