Hardball says Calhoun story doesn't add up!
Reporter said the months he said he saw * reading magazines don't match the months *'s pay records say he was there.

2. Understandable. There were probably a lot of NG's sitting around reading
on drill week-end in those days. (No offense to the Guardsmen then who had their shit squared away.)

The overall Guard then and the overall Guard now are very different critters, now in a completely different Order of Battle.

The thing is, Shrub went way beyond the somewhat accepted slackness of that time. Way beyond.

3. I watched Calhoun on CNN
The man looked like a loon IMO

I am not even sure he was put up to this...to me he just looked out there like he is seeking media attention to be a hero for his pResident.

15. Is he the one with a really bad rug?
I saw pix of some Rethug yesterday who looked like he had a dead animal on his head. Not quite as obvious as Jim Trafficant's, but almost.

11. Is This Guy Part Of The Bush Entourage?
Every interview I saw of Calhoun on television was nearly drowned out by the sound of race car engines, with cars doing time trials for the Daytona 500. That, coincidentally, is there team Bush is gathered to do their week-end photo-ops for their NASCAR Dad courtship. Is Calhoun following Bush around, coincidentally where Bush will speak, or is he part of the Bush photo-op extravaganza?

14. Calhoun gave his CNN interview with Daytona trials in the background
Funny, huh? The one guy they dig up to substantiate the big fat lie is someone who was hanging out at the same NASCAR event that Junior's making such a huge deal about attending. Hmmm...

These guys are amateurs. This whole administration is vigorous and concerted in their wickedness, but they're lightweights. We shouldn't ever be afraid of going toe to toe with these pitiful specimens.
