Let me see if I have this straight. The AP finds this one guy, ONLY this one guy who says Bush was a playboy. His claim to fame is that he's a Viet Nam Navy Seal so that gives him some credibility. Okay? Right so far?

BUT

It turns out one of us bloggers checked up on this guy, and guess what, he never was a Navy Seal. Was he even in the Navy?

What the Hel**** is going on in here? Last week you have AP erroneously reporting "booing" at a Bush Wisconsin rally.

Maybe he is the imaginary seal who gave sinister kerry is special hat????????

Yeah _ That thread seemed to be able to confirm he was a Master Chief "master at arms" (jail warden) on a seaplane tender.

He could have been a SEAL.

But, then why did he slip backwards into a MCMA billet in an out-of-the-way place doing a low-level job?

But nothing indicates it. The whole story stinks.

Again.

Frankly, my opinion, and it's only an opinion AP -cause ya'll don't check anything out - is that he has been telling his 7 kids stories about being a SEAL, and he's living his dreams now. Possibly was at BUDS,may even have passed.

Couldn't have spent 5 years in Vietnam. No way.

5 trips? 5 deployments? Maybe.

Then convinced himself that a WestPAC was Vietnam?

Oh, by the way, did AP ever do anything about that fake "booing" story when their other reporter lied about the crowd?
