Has the substance of the TANG allegation been blurred by CBS memos?

It seems to me that the media whores are no longer focusing on the issue of whether or not Bush completed his TANG duties as well whether or not Bush showed up at the National Guard in Alabama and Mass., and instead are bashing the crap out of CBS for defaming their fearless leader, CAPTAIN AWOL?

I feel that most people in this country, who dont work hard to find the truth of a matter, will simply watch the whores on TV and cable and believe what they are being told and will come to the conclusion that this is all politics and Bush must have complted his duties in the Air National Guard. That is not the truth of course, but that is the perception that is being created by the media whores.

Whether or not the memos are real does not matter anymore. The whole TANG allegations against Bush are very serious but the allegations have been blurred out by these CBS memos I am afraid.

Am I right? Or do you feel like the basic allegations against Bush, which is based on official government documents (and are not disputed), are still in peoples' minds and they know that Bush skipped out of the Guard and went AWOL? Seems like the media wants everyone to forget Bush's actions in the 1970s and instead the focus is CBS' credibility. Really sad!

1. That's the point of the attack.

Now the public thinks the only evidence that * went AWOL is from forged documents.

4. Exactly.....

I was speaking to someone today about all the official government documents that show Bush did not fulfill his obligations in the national guard and the person tells me, "well those documents are forged so it is not true.....Bush fulfilled his obligations." And I had to explain that even if we assume that the CBS memos are a forgery there is overwhelming evidence based on official (undisputed) military records that prove this....she was unaware of this thanks to our friends in the media.
