Dear Texans for Truth Contributor,
Today thanks to your generous support, Texans for Truth has launched a new
campaign calling on President Bush to immediately release all of his
military records. As questions continue to linger over President George W.
Bush's service record during the Vietnam War and the Bush Administration
dodges media requests for Bush's full military records, the ad also
connects Bush's behavior in the National Guard during Vietnam with the
current deaths of National Guardsmen and women in Iraq today. Click here

http://r.vresp.com/?TexansforTruth/455821ca41/231591/b0c1f800b3/5d9a1e6On February 8, 2004, George W. Bush appeared on Meet the Press and told
Tim Russert and the American people that he would, "Yes, absolutely,"
release his military records. Bush has yet to sign the legal consent form
to release of his records and White House spokespeople continue to dodge
reporter questions regarding Bush's service history.
We are calling on President Bush to honor the promise he made to the
American people that he would release all of his military records. If he
has nothing to hide about his missing year from service during the height
of the Vietnam War, the only way to clear this up for voters is to sign
the legal consent form and immediately make his records public.
On September 8, Texans for Truth released a television advertisement
featuring former lieutenant colonel Bob Mintz saying he never saw Bush
during the time the President says he served on a Montgomery, Alabama base
for the Alabama Air National Guard, despite the fact that he was looking
for Bush. The advertisement began running Monday, September 13, 2004 in
swing states that have sustained the highest losses of lives in Iraq.
Next, we announced a $50,000 reward to anyone who can prove Bush fulfilled
his drills and duties at the Montgomery, AL where he was assigned to serve
between 1972-1973. No legitimate witnesses have come forward, just days
before the offer is set to expire on September 30, 2004.
Thank you for your generous support of our efforts to bring the truth to
light,
