Military Record |
|
|
| Where
were you in '72? Most of us remember...Bush does not... |
| So,
while the news networks have sat on this explosive story for
months, it's well documented that George W. Bush never showed
up for National Guard duty for a period of approximately one
year, possibly more, in 1972-1973. Despite all the talk about
"honor and dignity," |
| |
| Key
documents from GW Bush's Missing Year |
| The
listing of service doesn't show any service between May 26,
1972 and Bush's separation on 1 Oct. 1973. He's never had to
give a straightforward answer on cocaine or on why there's no
record of him showing up for National Guard duty in Alabama. |

| Memos:
Bush failed to meet standards of Guard |
| Addressing
questions that have lingered for years, newly unearthed memos
state that George W. Bush failed to meet standards of the Texas
Air National Guard during the Vietnam War, that he refused a
direct order and that his superiors were in a state of turmoil
over how to evaluate his performance after he was suspended
from flying. |

place? Correspondent Dan Rather has new information on the president’s

The Record: Bush Documents-CBS |
| Last
week, on 60 Minutes, we heard for the first time the full story
from former Texas House Speaker Ben Barnes, who says he helped
President George Bush get a highly coveted place in the National
Guard. 60 Minutes also presented documents for the first time
which indicated that once Mr. Bush was accepted into the Guard,
he failed to live up to the requirements of his service, including
following an order. She told Correspondent Dan Rather that she
believes what the documents actually say is exactly as we reported. |

1972 payroll records 'found'-BBC |
| Earlier
this month the Pentagon said it had inadvertently destroyed
the documents, but a spokesman said they have been found in
the city of Denver. Correspondents say they do not shed light
on Mr Bush's movements that year. |

| Bush's
flight from the Guard |
| Why
was he abruptly grounded from flying? Why did he leave the Texas
Guard two years early? A key report answering those questions
is still missing from George W. Bush's records. |

and Opinions From Vets Who Served With Bush-August 11, 2004-By:
Evelyn Pringle |
The
official records don't support his claims, they show a Sep 15,
1972, direct order for Bush to report for duty at Dannelly,
"Lt Bush should report to Lt. Col. William Turnipseed,
DCO, to perform equivalent training," on “7-8 October,
and 4-5 November. He never showed up.
He wasn't
in Texas and he wasn't in Alabama. So where was he? |

Call On Bush To Get Honest - Part II-August 11, 2004-By: Evelyn
Pringle |
| Over
time, the Bush camp has given 3 different equally dishonest
stories, about why he was suspended. First it was that he did
not take the physical because his personal physician was in
Houston. The Boston Globe put that lie to rest when it reported
that "flight physicals can be administered only by certified
Air Force flight surgeons, and some were assigned at the time
to Maxwell Air Force Base in Montgomery, where Bush was living." |

| Was
Bush in Rehab During Those 5 Months in the National Guard?-August
15, 2004-By: Evelyn Pringle |
(1)
where was Bush while he was AWOL for 5 months? (2) why did he
fail to show up for his annual flight physical? and (3) why
don't any of his fellow guardsmen remember him at the Alabama
base?
Bush was
‘acting inappropriately’ on the base in Texas, then
was picked up on a DUI for alcohol and marijuana. In order to
‘create a break in the record,' he was shipped off to Alabama
for rehab. That is why he never showed up for his Guard duty
- he was in reahab. |

Hawks' are Flapping their Wings over War with Iraq-by George

| That
loud clucking sound you hear coming from the nation’s capital
did not originate at KFC, Popeye’s, or the neighborhood
wing joint. It’s coming from chicken hawks, those now thirsting
for a war with Iraq but were chicken when it was their turn
to serve in the military. |

Making an Issue of Kerry’s Military Service Is Dumber Than—Well,
Anything-by Mark Drolette |
| Why
would a president who did everything he could to not put on
a uniform during wartime but couldn’t wait to don one years
later as the most protected person on Earth, cast aspersions
about a guy who volunteered to wear one in Vietnam and upon
arriving back home as a decorated vet did everything he could
to help other soldiers take theirs off? For more details about
the Bush Baby’s last-gasp grasp at a straw man, read on.
