Just a convenient point you overlook. The period in question, May 72-73, when Bush was in Alabama heading the Senate campaign of Winton Blount, was the FIFTH year of his service in the National Guard. He had already amassed a ton of points in fighter interceptor training in the Texas Air National Guard since 1998. He was granted a transfer and because of his dramatic drop in points acquired in 72-73, he still collected enough flying to qualify for honerable discharge, though his point totals were far less than the previous four years. Hence, the charge that he was AWOL from the left. No one has criticized sKerry's volunteer service, including most recently Bush himself. However, if he hangs his entire convention and campaign on a mere 3-4 months of service in Vietnam, characterizing himself as an American hero, having served with hero's whom he then came home and slandered....it is all so consistent with his finger in the wind political philosophy. What ever happened to his "Bring it on"? He had run to daddy Bush to help get the Swiftboat vets to stop telling the truth about his valor.....Is this the man you wish to lead this nation?
