Bush flew fighter jets, but never over VIETNAM.

The only thing I've seen is that Bush declined to volunteer for Viet Nam.

Your link does not say that.

When I clicked the link and scrolled down it shows a box outlined in red that
says:

"I do/do not volunteer for overseas service."

Bush checked "Do not".

That has nothing to do with "Vietnam." Maybe he didn't want to go to Korea,
or Germany. I never ever volunteered for overseas. It came fast enough on its
own. If you look at my military records (dream sheets) they will all say I was
a non-volunteer for overseas. Yet I served 8 years overseas.

How meaningful is that anyway for a Guard member? Wouldn't you go wherever
your unit is sent, regardless of your volunteer status?

More spin. So why do you think that is important? Probably 75% of the guys in
the ten or so fighter squadrons I was in were non-volunteers.

Walt you are really grasping for straws, hanging on opinions from spinmakers,
and totally out of touch with what went on in the military during the Vietnam
era.

The records of Gore, Bush, Kerry, and the actions of Clinton all seem fishy to
me though I take far less umbrage to Bush's service than I do the otheres
because I know of others who followed the same path as he did conmpletely
within the "system". What matters is what has happened in the last decade. So
far as defense is concerned I see little in Kerry's record that would give me
much comfort in that regard.

It's not spin. I didn't keep track, but someone said that Bush volunteered for
overseas service. Maybe he did, but in February, 1968, he declined to do so.

I've seen no proof that he ever did.

Someone said, huh? Must be the truth if "someone" says so

Me too, but, of course, that does not indicate he did not volunteer for Viet
Nam.

And later changed his mind.
Funny you don't mention that part.

Can you show a source that Bush did volunteer for duty overseas?
Because in February, 1968, he declined to do so.

I am not denying that he did, but I've seen no proof. Further, I've
never even seen it suggested.

You act as if the world ended 30 years ago. People have had a life
and real accomplishments since then. Is your whole life about what you
did in the late 60's, with nothing accomplished after that?

The guy was a fricking Governor, for Christ's sakes. You think people
just vote for anyone?

Get a life.
