A way to prove/disprove Bush's deserter issue.

[gulliver]

Surely there are rosters of the people in the units Bush was assigned to. Those people aren't all dead. So why not just call them all and see if anyone remembers Bush? Does anyone know where to get the rosters?

1. You got it, gully

paging America's Bull Dog Press (if there are any of you left)

WAKE UP AND GO TO WORK

FIND THOSE GUYS AND SETTLE THIS HASH

2. They've probably been threatened long ago

or we would have heard something from at leat ONE of them by now. Also never heard a peep from anyone who knew him in his "partying days".

3. I find it amazing that someone hasn't tried to claim one of the rewards...

4. Release his pay stubs for the time in question

Very simple. Every other candidate has released their military records.

6. not showing up does not mean not getting paid...

7. They don't mail your pay. ~ You have to show up in person to receive it

5. I believe that the guy who was head of his unit

says he never saw Bush at all that last year.

8. Yes. I would like to see it unanimous.

I.e., if everyone in the unit said they had never met Bush, it would be fairly damning.

I don't see how Turnipseed saying Bush wasn't there is not damning already. Making an AWOL charge stick against a sitting president (technically, Bush is president) may need some extra juice.

Picture an ad in which every single surviving member of Bush's unit says, "No, I never met him and never saw him."
