This is typical of Dem kool ade drinkers. They have a willful ignorance of facts, blind hatred of the opposition and a lack of memory on what was said and/or promised on behalf of their candidate in order to get votes.
Anyway as soon as the transparency Obama promised ever shows up (I won’t hold my breath) you’ll have your proof. As you should know he is the only one who can release his records.
I’m guessing he won’t ever release these records or anything else except perhaps those who challenge him like the IGs.
So we may never know his about his grades or his supposed intellect unless some zealot does as some Dem zealots have done and hack into records/accounts that are supposed to be private.

June 22, 2009 at 10:34 AM #418660jficquetteParticipant[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]John: I think it was the F-106 that Dubya flew. It might have been a death trap, but it fired nuclear air-to-air missiles! That is just too cool.
I definitely wouldn’t be a good choice for that aircraft. Too much temptation.
Speaking of “Duke” Cunningham: He was a fighter ace in the F-4 Phantom and that is no small achievement, especially when going up against the more maneuverable MiG 17s, 19s and 21s that the North Vietnamese flew.
My dad worked on the Phantom project when he was at McDonnell-Douglas and he had a picture on his desk with the caption: “The F-4 Phantom: Proof that if you put big enough engines on a brick, it will fly!”.[/quote]
I though he flew the F-103 but DrBroom corrects me and I looked up on internet and read about the XF-103. There was something about Bush’s rating in the F-106 though. I will have do some research.
Fwiw ,my father was a Captain in the ANG when Bush was at Maxwell and handled payroll, Administrative duties. My Father also had a top secret crypto clearance from his days in communications.
My Father was interviewed by LA Times, NY Times etc back when Rather fabricated documents meant to discredit Bush.
My Father told them that in the military that if you are receiving duty pay that you are on duty. The Times didn’t like that and dropped my Father as someone that could get dirt on Bush about.
As a side note, my father never met ANY of the pilots. They stayed in a separate facility on base and were too snobby to mix with regular AF personnel. They kept to themselves.
I saw a Military Channel deal on Cunningham. He risked his life to save another pilot. This guy is a true hero.

June 22, 2009 at 10:37 AM #418691drboomParticipant[quote=jficquette]I believe that He was rated on the F-103. The Alabama National Guard flew the F-106. That is why he did not fly with the ANG although he was assigned to them. I could be wrong about that. I could ask my father again. So don’t quote me.[/quote]
Perhaps you missed my post a little earlier where I pointed out the XF-103 was a cancelled experimental program that never made it past the mockup stage in the 1950s.

A hero in his day, without a doubt. But he’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer and flushed it all down the drain.
