why did bush only attend air national guard meeting then go awol?

I don't know the details, but the buttom line is that he is a spoiled little rich boy that didn't wipe his own *** until he was an adult. Its funny how Republicans vote losers like that in the white house.

He did not drill the last few months because he could no longer fly, because his unit received newer jets. He did not want to go through the training since he was leaving anyway. He was not paid for drills he did not attend. He was still subject to activation, if there had been a national emergency.

I was a Navy Reservist for 10 years and saw similar actions by people who had job or school conflicts. If there were a number of years to go on a person's contract, that would be a different matter. Skipping the last few months was no big deal.

That was exposed as a total lie.

You can call Dan Rather at ABC to get the details... OOPS.... no you can't. THAT phone's been disconnected....

They started drug testing and he could not pass the drug tests

He didn't... the story was based on forged documents, or did you miss that bit ?
