Democrats accuse Bush of lying about his Air National Guard service
http://www.startribune.com/stories/587/4971069.html

WASHINGTON -- Democrats pounced on the latest revelations about President Bush's Air National Guard service Wednesday, saying newly released records show Bush shirked his duty and lied about it.

Bush's spokesmen said the records back up the president's assertion that he fulfilled all of his Vietnam-era military obligations and served honorably.

Meanwhile, the Texas Air National Guard released 128 pages of records on Bush's service from 1968 to 1973, all of which had been previously released by the White House. Two Texas officials said in sworn affidavits that the records were all the Texas Guard had on Bush's service.

McAuliffe also suggested Bush lied when he said he had released all available records and had fulfilled his Guard obligations.

2. New York Times has proof of Bush law breaking/AWOL - link below
.....www.nytimes.com/packages/pdf/opinion/lechliter.pdf

So why is there still pretend that it did not happen?

Cnn on Anderson 360 and on Lou Dobbs went out of its way to lie - to imply that there was nothing wrong.

These media whores can not download a file from the NYT and read it - my God - Why is CNN "trusted"?

3. "I did my duty"
Isn't that what he said? That's the lie. It's not being honorably discharged but whether he did his duty. What a snot.
