Hmmm… this old story about our aWol commander in chief (first broken by the Boston Globe in 2000… see Michael Moore’s site for tons of links) may finally be gaining some legs.
It seems that heads on CNN were talking about it tonight, with Wolf Blitzer admitting that he did not know the facts. With any luck, it could show up on the Sunday talk shows and really gain some momentum.
Here’s a really good article by Marty Heldt which concisely summarizes the known facts to date, and ends with this quote:
“In short, for the several hundred thousand dollars we tax payers spent on getting [Bush] trained as a fighter jock, he repaid us with sixty-eight days of active duty. And God only knows if and when he ever flew on those days,” concludes a military source. “I’ve spent more time cleaning up latrines than he did flying.”
It’s the truth: Bush Lies.
