Was Bush AWOL?
I keep hearing over and over here that Bush did not show up to his Alabama National Gaurd post from May 1972 through April 1973. Okay, that seems like he was AWOL (and perhaps a Deserter) according to the Military Code. But lately I am reading around here that perhaps Bush was not AWOL. What is that based on? If he was absent for that long period of time isn't that AWOL? Why do some around here think that perhaps Bush was not AWOL?

2. who cares if it's true or not, Repubs don't care about truth
When Clinton was in the hot seat it was smear first, get the facts later (if at all), then keep smearing. Turnabout is fair play.
