The real problem with Bush & his military absence.
With all the buzz about Ws absence in the Military, and websites proporting to have evidence, shouldn't our Commander in Chief address these issues simply for the morale of the reservists serving in the Middle East today?

What if today's reservists behaved like W?

To me this is the serious question that has relevance today, and for future operations.

1. Was this ever asked during...
...debates in 2000? Will it be this year?

If it isn't it would be pretty good evidence of a conservative controlled media.

2. He hasn't even attended a funeral or even mentioned the 500+ who
have died. It would be different if he even pretended to give a shit but he doesn't. He is a "do what I say, not as I do" type of chimp.

3. That fits in with the sheeple's philosophy
"it's in the past and we don't worry about the past, the future is what's important". Don't these morons know that our pResident has gone AWOL? Which means he's in charge of all military personnel? :crazy:
