4.) Bush spent his first two years of ANG duty full time attending
USAF pilot training, survival schools and operational qualification in
the F-102. OOOOOOps. He was really flying jets and engaging in a
rather risky business.

Apparently he drank and partied some, too. Can you imagine a
young fighter pilot doing such a thing ? I am stunned, I tell you.


6.) He was granted by his commander approval to go off to Alabama
during a period of huge pilot drawdowns and when his unit was
converting to another mission and aircraft which he didn't have
retainability to qualify in. OOOOOOOPPPPss. Is there nothing
derogatory yet?

7.) When he wasn't going to be flying he didn't take a flight
physical. Why would he? OOOOOOOPPPPPPPs. Gosh, I wish I could find
something here, Joe.

Apparently being caught in the wheels of administrative BS
utterly disqualifies one from ever being President.


8.) While detached to a unit in transition between aircraft (neither
of which Bush flew) and which the unit itself had not yet received so
there was little activity, some people in the Guard unit (which only
would show up once or twice a month) didn't see another guy who only
showed up once or twice a month. How uncanny that those hours of
attendance didn't coincide? Still nothing.


8a. I think somewhere in there he missed some drills and made them up
at a later time, getting the points he required to check the box for
that year's worth of drill time. Making up a drill at a later date was
apparently legal then, as it is for ARNG today.

it's the "true" story that can't be validated without the
forgery that's important.

Clear as mud.
