Re; Bush being AWOL is news! He is the sitting POTUS and this isn't resolved except in your mind.

Especially as we have this:
***
(CNN) -- A former officer in the Texas National Guard said Thursday he once overheard a conversation in which there was a request to sanitize President Bush's Guard records during Bush's tenure as Texas governor.

...

"I glanced down at the top of those documents. In ink was the word 'Bush, George W., 1 Lt.' This was a performance report. I was right at the trash can. I filtered through the top five or six pages in that, and they were all copies and originals of old performance documents and pay records for 'Bush, George W., 1 Lt."

Strangely not covered by other news outlets? A guy in a boat at night being 50 miles off is not exactly big news as he later was for sure where he said he was... Do you have some evidence that Swift Boats were never used to drop people off clandestinely? That 200 angry men (possibly many of them paid for their opinion) vast majority of which didn't serve with him on his boat or on boats near his boat at anytime...is interesting but not exactly truth. That the peoples opinion which might matter is he didn't deserve metals that they recommend him for is disturbing. It makes me reluctant to believe them. Especial with Elliott's jumping around on the issues and seemingly bending to pressures to stick with his second version of the story. Hum, you figure by asking your own questions this some how get you and Tom off the hook? Interesting logic!
