He wasn't listed as missing. He was our first pilot shot down and was mistakenly thought to have been killed in the crash. So he wasn't on the list of potential prisoners. By the time it became clear that he might have survived the crash, Clinton was President and there was no way that administration was going to deal with a POW-MIA problem. He wasn't declared MIA until a week and a half before Dubya's inauguration.
So Bill Clinton (and Hilliary) let that man rot in an Iraqi prison for how long? How long do you suppose Bubba
knew that one of our men was being held. If Bubba waited until just before Bush's inauguration to declare the pilot MIA, Bubba had to know and was attempting to cover his backside.
Wonder how Daschle will defend this?
