    You know the really cool thing about all this is:

    1. MOM and her warped Son cotton head only have one vote, no matter how hard they thump their lil gums in here.
    2. The basic Moral majority hard working middle class overwhelmingly support GW Bush.
    3. They outnumber the diseased Liberal left wingers, 1.5 to one.
    4. a recent poll conducted, non partisan, asked 5000 people, what they considered themselves, far left wing, liberal, moderate, conservative or right wing?

    answers were 2% far left, 5% liberal, 26% moderate, a whoping 42% conservative, 5% right wing and 20% were apathetic or undecided.
    I am goin to try to find this link so I can post it.
    anyway, gang don't fret over liberals they make alot of noise but it means zilch.

    How is it possible for George W. Bush to be in a National Guard unit in Alabama, be a pilot and an officer, be a prominent son of a sitting Congressman, which he was, and his two immediate superior officers over him not remember him ever reporting for duty?

    The CBS News reported tonight that Bush claims he never met his two commanding officers while in Alabama because he was working under "different officers" who he does not remember the names of, and they have yet to find anyone who remembers serving with Bush in Alabama.

    Four years ago, they could not find any of Bush's Guard records. Now suddenly they find some, although the press reports that much is so smudged they could not read it.

    Maybe he was working undercover.

    There you go again, with what has become modus operandi for you. Unless a media source says exactly what you want it to say, it is "right wing propaganda."

    Read the Gen. Turnipseed interview again, and pay special attention to the part where he says he wasn't even on the base much of the time. It was 30 years ago, and not to be derogatory, but this is the National Guard we are talking about. Weekend drills, with people coming and going at all different times. It's not surprising Gen. Turnipseed didn't show up on those days to have hard, multiple sightings and confirmations of Lt. Bush's drills on the off chance this young man might become POTUS one day.

    As for your spurious, dreamed-up-out-of-thin-air implication that Bush was grounded for drugs, check this out:

    Bush was grounded for not taking a flight physical that year, which is required. The suspension of flight status was temporary though, pending a physical. Why did Bush not take the physical? Because while at Alabama, he was not flying, and had no plans to fly until he returned to his regular unit in Texas. Once he did return, two things happened; he got accepted into Harvard Business School, and the Air Force was phasing out the F-102, the only plane he was qualified to fly. It had been eight months since his last flight time, and he had no plans to stay in the TANG much longer. It didn't make sense for him to go through the rigorous flight qualifications on another aircraft. So he took a ground service assignment for the remainder of his time in the TANG. Big freakin' deal. He got an early discharge to go to Harvard and because the F-102 was being phased out and he had no desire to qualify on another aircraft. John Kerry was also granted an early discharge from the Navy. Neither is a big deal.

    Now, I can't prove beyond the shadow of a doubt that Bush didn't snort crack or didn't Puff the Magic Dragon during all of this, and that that's not the real reason why he didn't take the physical to keep his flight status current. But you can't prove he did either. You are just trying to start rumors in a desperate attempt to smear Bush.
