Yeah, commonly referred to as "the fine print", "the catch", "the hitch",
etc.

The point is someone came forward and Trudeau paid. If nobody had come
forward to prove Bush's service he wouldn't have paid, at least not
before
the election. He'd have been trumpeting "still no witness" all the way
to
election day! He paid very quickly, and very quietly, after Lt. Col.
Calhoun verified Bush's service. If he hadn't the Republicans would have
lambasted him for reneging on his offer, and he'd probably be facing a
lawsuit.

Then why is the offer still posted?

Maybe for the same reason oodles of webpages from thre and four years ago
are still posted.

Apparently Calhoun's dates did not jibe with the dates that Bush claims to
have
been in Alabama,

Can you point to any evidence of that? No? Nobody has yet been able to
indict Calhoun's account.

and the money was never paid.

The USO did receive a check, and the contest is no longer.
