Glider Pilot Running for US President

W's opponent is a war hero, but he can't remember where he put all the medals
he was awarded. I remember, do you?
JJ Sinclair

Does W. remember where his are? Oh wait, he was running a campaign in
Alabama. I don't think they award combat medals for that. Hell, he was
skipping out on the duty he used to skip out on the war (Big deal, IMHO,
that's the least of our problems with W.)

P.S. I stil have my fathers Vietnam medals.

That's because he (your father) didn't throw them away.

Oh this will be much more entertaining then our annul
PW5 flame-fest.

Let's remember this is not an USA only discussion group,
well on second though maybe one of our rainy island
types could provide details of Tony Blair's piloting
exploits.

Hey Shelton, see URL for much more detailed source
material.

No need to be cute. He was a rich-kid chicken**** who hid in the Texas Air
Guard, not a fighter pilot.

You believe what you read in Mother Jones?

That would be a bit of a stretch. He was KIA 35 years ago. His sister
is a very moderate Republican. He married into a brutally liberal
family (I mean seriously. They even scare me sometimes!) I have my
suspicions, but its not very American to vote for the dead (despite
history).

The original message was that "he was not much of a pilot". The original
questions remain: how does the poster know, what are the sources ?

As far as I am concerned, anyone, and I mean anyone, who qualifies to fly an
F-102 is more of a pilot than I am.

Cheers, Charles

I'm with you Charles. Also, I wouldn't throw too many stones at the guard
units, because we all know where they are right now. Also, the California
National Guard was called up at the start of that other Asian war (Korea) and
they took 80% casualties. One doesn't know exactly where and when the guard
will be called on to serve the country.
God Bless them All,
