For those who haven't seen, this is pretty damning stuff that was completely overlooked - by the mainstream media - until today. A buch of key records were simply not looked at before. Go figure.
From the Boston Globe:
In February, when the White House made public hundreds of pages of President Bush's military records, White House officials repeatedly insisted that the records prove that Bush fulfilled his military commitment in the Texas Air National Guard during the Vietnam War.
But Bush fell well short of meeting his military obligation, a Globe reexamination of the records shows:
Twice during his Guard service ... Bush signed documents pledging to meet training commitments or face a punitive call-up to active duty.
He didn't meet the commitments, or face the punishment, the records show.
Read the article to get the details.
Also 60 minutes tonight (Wednesday, 8pm, CBS) will be covering this and the guy who squeezed W into the National Guard.
