Matt Drudge reports that the Democrats have prepared a new smear on George Bush regarding his National Guard service that is not only pathetic and laughable, but also reveals the incredible ignorance of the military of Bush's opponents:
Faster than a CBS eye can blink, dogged Dems are set to take to the airwaves anew hoping to keep questions about President Bush's National Guard duty in play, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.
Candidate Kerry apparently has rejected former President Clinton's advice not to get further locked in a 2004 Vietnam quagmire.
"George W. Bush's campaign literature claimed that he 'served in the U.S. Air Force.' The only problem? He didn't," slams a new DNC press release set for distribution. ... "George Bush has a clear pattern of lying about his military service," DNC Communications Director Jano Cabrera blasts in the new release. "From 1978 to the present day, George Bush has refused to tell voters the truth about his service. It's time for the President to come clean."
"Flyers distributed to Texas voters during Bush's failed Congressional race say 'he served in the U.S. Air Force and the Texas Air National Guard.' But according to Air Force officials, Air National Guardsmen are not counted as members of the active-duty Air Force."
If you can imagine anyone responding to anything so unbelievably petty, then you must be related to James Carville. Otherwise, all this kind of attack does is to reveal the desperation of John Kerry and the Democrats.
Besides which, it's dead wrong, just like the Killian forgeries, only this time no one committed felonies to create the smear. CQ stalwart Bandit, himself a former military man, discovered this among George Bush's National Guard records at USA Today. Take a look through pages 8, 9, 10, and 24, for starters. George Bush received his commission from the Air Force reserves and his promotion from 2nd Lt to 1st Lt was given by the Air Force. That would indicate that George Bush indeed was serving in the Air Force while flying in the Air National Guard.
Who do the Democrats think was in charge of the Air National Guard, anyway? The FAA? If they know this little about our armed services, they should never be put in charge of them. And if they're reaching for such picayune and pathetic distinctions, it demonstrates that they have nothing left to offer the American electorate. They've admitted that John Kerry is an empty suit and all they care about is regaining power.
The only way to ensure that this crowd gets completely discredited is to punish the Democratic Party up and down the entire ticket in November. If you think forgery is a swell thing, of course, vote Democratic. But if you want these twisted and bitter souls to be exiled once and for all from American politics -- the Susan Estriches, Al Gores, James Carvilles, and all that gang of haters -- then do whatever you can to ensure their party's defeat at every level this year.

September 6, 2004 -- **BREAKING** In Yesterday's Lies: Steve Pitkin and the Winter Soldiers, Scott Swett tells the story of a former VVAW member and participant in the Winter Soldier Investigation who states that John Kerry and others pressured him to give false testimony about American atrocities in Vietnam. After more than 33 years, Pitkin is the first Winter Soldier "witness" to file a legal affadavit regarding that event...
My name is Steve Pitkin, age 20, from Baltimore. I served with the 9th Division from May of '69 until I was airvaced in July of '69. I'll testify about the beating of civilians and enemy personnel, destruction of villages, indiscriminate use of artillery, the general racism and the attitude of the American GI toward the Vietnamese. I will also talk about some of the problems of the GIs toward one another and the hassle with officers.

I just want to grouse about the pulling of threads. A moderator pulled some post regarding some junk Larry Flint was trying to pull. The Admin moderator said "Larry Flint not welcome here."
How is CBS any better than Larry Flint? They both carry water for the Democrat Party and have about the same credibility. We can criticize CBS, but we cannot criticize Flint?

I support John O'Neill and the Swift Boat Vets. I've read the book "Unfit for Command" and the factual evidence is hard for ANYONE, ANYONE with common sense ans comprehension to deny!!
But the Dems have used the excuse of "fighting back against the Swifties" - but they can't, how can you refute the TRUTH?? - the distract attention from the fact that Kerry has NEVER signed STANDARD FORM 180 to release ALL of his military records. KERRY LIED TO TIM RUSSERT ON "MEET THE PRESS" BACK IN APRIL, 2004!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He told Russert that he had released all his records and they were at his "headquarters for all to see"!! Kerry is a boldfaced liar!!!
C'MON SEN. KERRY!! STOP STONEWALLING & DISTRACTING. SIGN STANDARD FORM 180 NOW!!!!

For anyone interested, it seems that the Air National Guard is under the impression that it is a part of the Air Force. I guess the Dim's know better. Here is a link to the Air National Guard website.

To: crushelits; All
Our own Pukin Dog has shed some light on this issue.
He said, "it is true that Bush would have been in the USAF for his basic and flight training (the TANG does not have separate facilities to do that), before Bush began flying with the ANG. This is just another bogus attack".
This is just more proof, to me, the people lodging these charges hate the military, have no military experience, and cannot even get off their blessed assurance and check these things out before spewing this junk. The more shrill these people become .. the more they destroy their own credibility.
These attacks are for only one purpose .. to keep the focus off Kerry's Senate record, and to counter the Swift Boat ads and documentary.

"Although the Air National Guard was not established as a separate component of the U.S. Air Force until 1947, National Guard aviators have played significant roles in all of America's wars and most of its major contingencies since the beginning of the 20th Century."
This is probably where the democrats got their 'talking point' from.

If so, then they got it backwards, because it means that the ANG became a separate component of the USAF in 1947.

It's true... a landslide win for Bush will do a lot towards cleaning up most of the Dem cespool. Of course, there will always be "the Swimmer". He'll be a Mass senator until he dies.
