Bush's Vietnam-Era Military Records Show Gaps

Although the records, some of which had been previously released, were not fully legible, Lloyd said they reflected that Bush earned the required number of service points.

The documents show long gaps in Bush's Guard service, from May through late October 1972, and mid-January through early April 1973.

2. Jennings helps to release this on purpose...

so the administration can vet it publicly well before the election...

and it backfires on them.

Priceless.
