Bush flew fighter jets, but never over VIETNAM.

Algore clearly did the same with his assignment as a
press officer.


Gore was not an officer.

Press guy then. Public information guy, whatever. Armed with a camera and
notebook.

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".

No. At least on one occasion Bush declined to volunteer for Viet Nam.


Here is the link that proves this:

Have you some proof that Bush ever changed this?



Walt

Since that form doesn't have a date, and according to the first
section, deals with being recalled for non-flying duty, it appears
to deal with inactive duty after going off active duty, and is
therefore irrelevant to the discussion. Perhaps the (obviously
objective) owner of the site "awolbush.com" would provide the rest
of the form so that we might see the actual context of the
form?


It shows that on at least one occasion, Bush declined to volunteer for overseas
service.

It he changed that later, I'd be glad of some proof.

See this link that shows that Bush declined to volunteer for overseas duty in
February, 1968:

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.

I'll not hold my breath waiting, if you don't mind...

The volunteering for deployment in the F-102 was covered quite
some time ago- during the 2000 Presidential campaign, as I recall..

The man didn't want to fight. End of story.

All that truly matters is that the man wants to fight NOW. End of
story.
