......if your name happens to be george bush, or if you happen to be certain republicans. they attacked john Mc Cain, one of their own, a war hero by any standard, and said awful things about his sanity and patriotism. they called max cleland a showboater for making a career out of losing 3 limbs in Vietnam, and dismissed his patriotism too. Now they attack John Kerry, who was THERE and reported for duty as well. none of these men have anything to hide or lie about concerning their sacrifices to our nation.

yet george bush, who till this day still cannot produce his complete military records regarding a missing year of service, suggests through his hired attack squad goons under the wing of kkkarl rove, that Kerry, Cleland, and Mc Cain did not really deserve the label, 'war hero' or 'patriot'.

yeah well fuck you mr. bush. you are hiding behind other people and pretending they are not doing your dirty work, and you are a fucking coward with the balls to smear true heroes. can you prove you are not a deserter mr. bush? can you send more Americans to their deaths in vain? you got a lotta balls jr.

1. "I continued flying with my unit for the next several years..."

"But don't try finding anyone from my unit that can vouch for my presence in Alabama, 'cause I was flying secret sorties against NVA jets over Dallas that no one in the TANG knew about. Not even my superior officers! And don't try looking at my records - they lie!"

3. Only for lying about sex, if I remember correctly.

Yes, microfilm records that are designed to last 500 years were either destroyed in a fire or deteriorated on their own. "Don't believe the liberal scientific community - microfilm is a weak format!"

7. George Bush wears ribbons he is not entitled to wear!

FACT: Bush was wearing an AFOUA and SAEMR in the above photograph.
FACT: Bush was a National Guardsman for Five years zero months and 28 days according to his ARG22.
FACT: Bush's ARG22 lists NO medals or awards.
FACT: IF Bush had faithfully executed his oligation under his enlistment in the Texas Air National Guard for the term of his enlistment, he would have qualified for the Texas Faithful Service Medal.
FACT: A Form AF11 dated May 16, 1971 lists ONLY the SAEMR as an award received by George W. Bush.
FACT: Form AF 1712 dated May 10, 1973 lists NO Awards.
FACT: A "military biography" of dubious origin released by the White House contains his enlisment dates, the units he was attached to, and lists the NDSM and SAEMR as his awards, but NOT the AFOUA.
FACT: No document provided by the Bush team lists the AFOUA as one of his awards, by comparison both the DD214 and DD215 provided by John Kerry lists multiple Unit awards.
FACT: To date, no document has been presented to demonstrate Bush earned the AFOUA he was wearing in the picture above.
FACT: No document has been presented that any unit Bush served in was awarded the AFOUA during the period of time in which Bush served.
