I based my comments on the same exact source that you used.

You might want to brush up on your cherry picking.

Are you seriously comparing his flight record to someone who actually flew for the military during the same time period?

Like say, John McCain?

I'm not sure whether you're just insulting people's intelligence, or just insulting true combat veterans.

Quoted from Tommy

Yes, the TEXAS air national guard. I guess he was protecting us against the Mexican Air Force.

If there had been a SINGULAR, SOLITARY,  person that could say they've "served" with him, they would have been paraded around to every last campaign stop.

But that person didn't exist.
Not unlike Rudy (the transvestite adulterer) Gulianni, that couldn't find even ONE. SINGLE. MEMBER. of the NYPD, or FDNY, to speak in his favor during the campaign, or that person would have most certainly spoke at every "whistle stop".

I know, sure as hell, if I had served along side of Chimpy Mcflightsuit,  I would have come foward, because really, can you think of anybody at that time whom you would rather owe you a favor?

Your foolish post is a pack of lies ... the same pack of lies that Dan Rather tried to peddle as news and got
fired when it was proven that he and others had made it all up.
The only chimps are the wacko conspiracy theorists who keep coming up with STUPID accusations such as
yours.

You remind me of a child that plugs his ears, stomps his feet, and screams LA LA LA LA LA ! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!!!

Do you seriously think that Bush wouldn't have found at least ONE person to verify that he served in the capacity that he said he did if such a person truthfully ever existed?

What part is the lie?

The over a dozen different pictures published of Mr. 911in drag?
The "lies" told by his own family (who refused to vote for him) about him committing adultery at Gracie Mansion while his wife and children were asleep just down the hall?

It's quite obvious that you do not now, nor have ever known any member of THE NYPD, or FDNY, because he couldn't find a SINGLE MEMBER of either force to stump for him in ANY campaign, or he would have paraded them around with the same vigor as Sarah Palin showed when she hauled a newborn special needs baby around the continent for her own personal gain.

Actually there were a number of persons who verified Mr. Bush's service.

I couldn't care less about Guiliani.

And yes, I know at least 2 person who were members of the NYPD  .. but what does the NYPD have to do
with your lies about Mr. Bush ?

Ohhh, you mean Bill Clinton and Barack Obama! I see what you mean.

Quoted from GrahamBonnet

No. I meant THESE scumbags.

* George W. Bush: failed to complete his six-year National Guard; got
  assigned to Alabama so he could campaign for family friend running
  for U.S. Senate; failed to show up for required medical exam,
  disappeared from duty.
* Dick Cheney: did not serve. Several deferments, the last by marriage.
* Don Rumsfeld: served in Navy (1954-57) as flight instructor.
* Rush Limbaugh: did not serve (4-F with a 'pilonidal cyst.')
* Bill O'Reilly: did not serve.
* Dennis Hastert: did not serve.
* Tom Delay: did not serve.
* Roy Blunt: did not serve.
* Bill Frist: did not serve.
* Mitch McConnell: did not serve.
* Rick Santorum: did not serve.
* Trent Lott: did not serve.
* John Ashcroft: did not serve. Seven deferments to teach business.
* Jeb Bush: did not serve.

  Korea.
* Phil Gramm: did not serve.
* Dana Rohrabacher: did not serve.
* John M. McHugh: did not serve.

  shoot back.)

Not even George W. Bush claimed to have fought combat missions.   But he did fly with the
Air National Guard during the Vietnam War and thus does know how to fly airplanes  .. or did ..
I don't know if he has kept up with it as a hobby.

John McCain had a distinguished career of service both militarily and politicaly  ...  in fact .. one
of the reasons that I was so torked off by Mr. Obama is that he and his campaign made fun of
Mr. McCain's inability to use a computer   --- which was not due to the fact that Mr. McCain could
notlearn how to use a computer  but the FACT that Mr. McCain had suffered PERMANENTLY
DISABLING injuries to his arms while in captivity which make it impossible for him to use a
keyboard  (typewriter, computer, or even piano).     I have known 2 persons who have had similar
injuries  --one from an automobile accident and another from injuries while serving in WW2 -- and
person with those types of injuries suffer greatly,every day, and have great limits placed on their
range of motion and other activities.  
I would NOT and will NOT vote for Mr. Obama for president or dog catcher because of his
CRUELTY and DESPICABLE NASTINESS attacking a Disabled American Veteran.

All the democraps are war heroes I take it, according to Tommy. I guess it is one of those rules someone made up that if you are a republican you have to be a combat vet. That is good to know.

55% felt money pain

The Great Recession hurt more than half of Americans, especially younger people, minorities and those with a high school education or less, said a survey released Friday.

"For a narrow majority of Americans, 55 percent, the economic downturn brought a mix of hardships, usually in combination: a spell of unemployment, missed mortgage or rent payments, shrinking paychecks and shattered household budgets," according to Pew Research Center. "But for the other 45 percent of the country, the recession was largely free of such difficulties."

Demographics largely distinguished people who "lost ground," including those who lost jobs or had trouble paying bills, the survey found................>>>>.................>>>>.....................http://www.nypost.com/p/news/business/felt_money_pain_RFNSkcNx1Hru7pd2Vl1VGK

Has the recession ended, or not?

    Now I am really confused by Washington politicians. We were told months ago that the Great Recession ended in June 2009 — there was even an article in The Washington Post confi rming that announcement.
    Then just the other day, Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) makes the statement on national TV that we can’t stop spending and reduce the deficit until the recession ends. Plus, he also says that won’t be until 2013, conveniently after the next election. He did make these statements on Fox News, so some might say he really didn’t say what he said.
    Maybe my member of Congress or one of my senators can answer this question: Is the recession over or not?

they are used to talking through the old systems of media.....it used to be slow and folks were unable to connect the dots because of the 'time lapse'
in information/statements offered......in this new era of tech they are speaking without the pause button, hence we can now connect the dots sooner
