dz– I never cared much about Bush’s National Guard Service one way or the other, at least not enough to research it, but having spent a minute doing so, I’d say your “fact” is seriously in question. Check out this, this, and this. I don’t suppose we’ll ever know the truth.
The list is biased and anybody who’s been on the internet or been able to receive email in the last 5 years has received at least one flavor of it. If you can’t accept that, then you just hear what you want to hear. I’m sorry I picked the wrong example for you (it just jumped out at me), but do you really think the list is not biased? Hey, I’m trying to help here. Relying on biased support weakens arguments.
sdcellar, the list may be biased, it is not my list. My beef is specifically with Bush and his Administration not having military credentials. It is well documented how Bush has ignored advice from military experts and advisors, even pushing Colin Powell out of the “inner circle”.
Regarding Bush’s ANG record, just the fact that there is so much uncertainty/confusion that he ever attended at his Alabama unit makes him look very sketchy. It is amazing that he got away with this in his political campaigns
DZ,you appear to believe that anyone who does not agree with you is not thinking for themselves. We all appear to laboring under the weight of a mindless, zombie-like groupthink.
dz, thanks for granting me my point. I know it’s not your list and I really am just trying to point out how all the surrounding hyperbole hinders rather than helps.
All I want is facts and solutions! And I’m sure that’s what most of us want (or at least I hope it is).

"Heather Ward has 3 1/2 years of college credits in chemistry and biology and is about to graduate when she gets back. She hopes one day to be a radiologist, he said.
"And what's more, she joined the armed forces soon after 9/11 because she wanted to help her country, her dad said."
