You have to learn to put in a charge, such as "this person said this" or
"that person said that". All I have heard about this topic is that someone asked Bush if he had "asked for help getting into the Guard". Bush replied "no". I myself have been the beneficiary of various types of assistance that I did not ask for. I know how it works. You have to ask Bush if he RECEIVED any help if you want to get a valid answer. And were he to be asked about any help he might have received, I would hope he would be truthful. But frankly, I don't care whether he got any help or not. For several months in 1967 I kept $800.00 in a savings account. It stayed there until I failed my draft physical. It cost $800.00 to get in the Guard back then. "Larry Dighera" wrote in message ...

But did the person who got you into the "champagne" unit of the ANG receive $23 million from the lotto lobby as a result of doing a reciprocal favor for your daddy/governor? http://www.workingforchange.com/arti...m?ItemID=17565 |

Because there's nothing there that fits the definition of "evidence". It's an undated, unsigned statement that GHWB helped GWB enter the TANG. The letter is not even credible! The statement that Bush "was placed ahead of thousands of young men, some of whom died in Viet Nam" makes it look like a fabrication from the anti-Bush crowd. |

He’s always in pain, you know, because of the way he was hurt in the war. But I believe Bob Lee has found himself in some way. All he wants from life is freedom and to be left alone.” “What about medals? Has he ever said anything about medals? Are medals important to him?” “To Bob Lee? Let me tell you something, son—were you in the war or anything?” “No sir, I wasn’t.” “Well, son, the only people that are interested in medals are the ones that are fixing to run for office some day. I went from one side of Burma to the other with General Merrill’s Marauders in 1943 and 1944, and the only man I ever saw who wanted a medal or cared about a medal later became the only governor of Colorado to be impeached. -------------- Stephen Hunter, “Point of Impact”, Bantam Books, 1993, p.115 |
