new book will detail SCRUBBING of Bush military records!!
From salon.com's outstanding review of the AWOL story today:


"Meanwhile, recent questions have surfaced not only about Bush's military service, but his official records. "I think some documents were taken out" of his military file, the Boston Globe's Robinson tells Salon. "And there's at least one document that appears to have been inserted into his record in early 2000." That document -- the aforementioned torn page that did not have Bush's full name on it -- plays a central role in the story.

"His records have clearly been cleaned up," says author James Moore, whose upcoming book, "Bush's War for Re-election," will examine the issue of Bush's military service in great detail. Moore says as far back as 1994, when Bush first ran for governor of Texas, his political aides "began contacting commanders and roommates and people who would spin and cover up his Guard record. And when my book comes out, people will be on the record testifying to that fact: witnesses who helped clean up Bush's military file."

2. Yeeeeouch! How cool.
Amazing how some people keep chipping away, in the background, under the radar, unnoticed until the timely moment when all the work finally pays off.

3. Everything does seem to be coming to a head
Just be careful when the floodgates really blow off this thing. We still have a lot of shit to deal with because of the mess these bastards have made.

6. Its still kinda early. Might wanna stretch these scandals out
over the next few months.

At this rate, Kucinich will soon be electable.


(Just funning, K fans; I'd love to see Dennis beat Shrub this Nov, or Cheney or Delay or whoever's president come then.)
