OK, if turnabout is fair play and Art always asks for "your
qualifications" then I can say, GWB graduated from USAF pilot training
and qualified in a single seat, single engine fighter where he
performed satisfactorily for nearly four years of duty. Where did you
get your pilot's wings, Art?

I got them at Big Springs AAB in Texas.

Read again, slowly. "Where did you get your PILOT'S wings." Sorry, but
thats a cheap shot. Won't do it again.

But I wore them over France, Italy,
Belgium Holland and Germany

Must have been out of uniform. Thought you were supposed to be wearing
the wings with the bomb in the middle, or maybe the ones with the
snakes, not the ones with the radiator.


What combat zones did Bush enter?.I'd say one
bombardier who saw the elephant many time over is worth ten pilots who never
saw a damn thing. But what are we really talkng abou, war or politics?

Ahh, we've had a breakthrough!! We are talking about politics.
Therefore, where did you get your political science degree(s)?

Seriously, here, we are talking about politics and the behavior of
politicians, so your oft repeated questioning of combat experience is
irrelevant. One can have a political opinion without combat
experience. And, one can have combat experience without a correct
political opinion.
