Bush AWOL from the Guard -- Best Yet by WalterM140
"President Bush claims that in the fall of 1972, he fulfilled his Air National Guard duties at a base in Alabama. But Bob Mintz was there - and he is sure Mr. Bush wasn't. Plenty of other officers have said they also don't recall that Mr. Bush ever showed up for drills at the base. What's...

Dog Fight For the Presidency by WalterM140
Only in an election year ruled by fiction could a sissy who used Daddy's connections to escape Vietnam turn an actual war hero into a girlie-man. As we leave the scripted conventions behind us, that is the uber-scenario that has locked into place, brilliantly engineered by the president of the...

Inventor of "Window" dies by [email protected]
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the death this week of Fred L Whipple, reportedly the inventor of "Window" (aluminum strips cut to a length designed to confuse radar). Indirectly, he probably saved a good number of lives in WWII.
