[IdaBriggs]

Because you people are spending FAR TOO MUCH TIME on the forgery thing -- I don't care whether it was a forgery or not, because its brought the topic back into public awareness which means NEXT ROUND OF ATTACK NEEDS TO COME OUT!!! Now, please start ten billion threads ON WHETHER OR NOT BUSH LIED ON HIS NATIONAL GUARD APPLICATION LIKE ITS DOCUMENTED HERE:

Drip, drip, drip....let the controversy BEGIN!!!

1. Hey Ralph, put down your hand!

[Trajan]

2. We have a few

extreme controlling types in DU ....

You are vying for management ?

[IdaBriggs]

4. Just Really Getting Irritated.

Have you read the "Bush Lied on His App" thread? Its probably one of the best researched pieces I've ever seen posted on DU, and NOBODY is talking about it. I really think this is why Wrong Way's team keeps winning -- we're ALL A BUNCH OF IDIOTS. Sigh.:(

5. Better, more in depth research than I did on my ribbon story

It is foursquare the most damning thing I've seen yet and is probably what the left hand has been holding while the right hand of Rove was pointing at AWOL.

10. But I still loved your guard story!

:) Any chance you can start a thread on this topic? I'm so impressed with the work, I can barely see straight. Unfortunately, I need to leave for a while, and I'm worried that "its too many words" for people to wade through, so its going to disappear.

Today is a rotten day; all the reasons I hate Wrong Way are being advertised -- 9/11 is such a disastrous day, how did that B*ST*RD turn it into lemonade???!!! :(

[merh]

7. There is reference in his guard file to the charges.

I remember seeing the notation that a malicious mischief or disturbing the peace or some such charge was nole prosed. I made a comment about it in a post when I saw it. Does that alter your research?

[IdaBriggs]

9. NO. And its NOT my research.

Though I would love to take credit for it. If you read the post, you'll find that he only mentions ONE incident with the police; the second would have meant he couldn't get in the National Guard, AND SO HE DIDN'T PUT IT ON HIS APPLICATION. Cool, huh? :)

[merh]

11. Just trying to get this straight -

There is reference to a disorderly conduct charge being nolle prosed re: an arrest in Connecticut in 1966?
(page 8 dated 22 Aug 68)

Is that the Yale "riot" reference? If it is, what other charge is not referenced?

[IdaBriggs]

12. I understand. Go read this thread w/details:

It will MAKE YOUR DAY!!! :) Best, Ida

3. I was thinking the same thing, tho not as stridently...

That this has become a HUGE distraction for US. Too much else to do and focus on, running out of time...

[MadamImAdam]

6. Keeping Vietnam in the forefront

It may be our only recourse at this time.

[IdaBriggs]

8. No, its about CHARACTER.

And the type that thinks LYING IS OKAY (to avoid getting drafted, missing weapons of mass destruction, to make money, to gain power, to kill). Men don't just become scum buckets like Wrong Way over night; it took decades of preferential treatment and other people "fixing" his mistakes before he really believed he could do no wrong, and sell our country out to the Saudis like he has with no consequences.

13. Who gives a shit if they are forged?

Apparently, the WH stipulated to whatever was in the documents, so the proof is in the pudding, Bush lied.

[IdaBriggs]

14. Just like he ALWAYS does. Have you read the ...

thread I mentioned where we find out HE LIED ON HIS NATIONAL GUARD APP? <chortle, chortle>

[guitar man]

15. yes

I read it. I remember when I went into the military they were very frank about what the penalty was for that. I guess it doesn't apply to Fortunate Sons.

[IdaBriggs]

16. I believe in Justice. Help me keep it kicked, please.

I want the entire media knowing the internet is "buzzing" about this FACT that he committed YET ANOTHER FELONY. As they said about Martha Stewart, "its not the crime, but the cover up!"
