I sure am tired of people saying that Bush flying a supersonic jet is not courageous. I don't care if it's in combat or not. Not just anybody can do it.

Yup. Flying fighter jets is dangerous duty no matter where you fly. Several guardsmen died flying those f 102 Delta Darts. I remember seeing them fly over my home in socal during the late 60's and 70's. We always ran out the door to look when we heard the screaming afterburners. Yeah!!!
I agree...
Bush had experience in a very dangerous aircraft(dangerous for the pilot) and he put in for Vietnam. Matthews is a weak kneed sissy boy.
