AWOL Nonsense. Liberals Desperate!!
This business about George Bush's military service record is an astonishing double standard. The same liberals that are whining about the president being 'AWOL' or a 'deserter' were the same people trying to convince us in 1992 that Bill Clinton's draft-dodging was no big deal. Surely the Democrats don't think we're that stupid. White House spokesman Scott McClellan called the accusations 'shameful' and 'the worst of election-year politics.' He said 'Bush fulfilled his duties' and was honorably discharged. End of story. That should be where it ends. Apparently the military's decision that Bush's service was honorable doesn't sit well with the nutcases on the left.
DNC Chairman Terry McAwful said he looks forward to a debate with John Kerry, a candidate with a chest full of medals, against George Bush, who he says 'was AWOL in the Alabama National Guard.' Of course, the charge isn't true. But what about the debates with World War II hero George Bush the elder and draft-dodger Bill Clinton? Weren't we told that 'character didn't matter?'
What a bunch of lying, hypocritical phonies.
Oh..and what about Howard Dean? He had a medical deferment for a bad back. That didn't stop him from going skiing. Who cares. The fact of the matter is the Vietnam war was unpopular and a lot of people got out of going any way they could. Of course, facts don't mean much to left-wing Democrats.
