Reply #310: I'm tempted to regard this as a minor issue. [View All]

I know that the U S Air Force & the Texas National Guard are separate organizations although they do work together. You don't just sort of drift in & out of the Air Force; it's not a matter of mood. But I'd regard this as just another detail of a smarmily deceptive press release, like the description of his "public school" education & his "independent" business career. Kerry needs to concentrate on Bush's other myriad faults & what he has to offer as President. Of course, he hasn't neglected these topics, but the media generally ignore the less-sexy discussions.

But the number of newbies eager to suppress the story make me think this may be important.
