His abhorence for all things liberal dramatically reduces his cred with me. (Though some of his hate is misplaced as it was Nixon, not Johnson who was president from 1970-1971.) It shows he has an agenda and people with an agenda and serious hatred for a group of people tend to be willing to lie.

I'm not saying I fully trust him but for the theories being thrown about around Bush's alleged AWOL to be true a hell of a lot of "ifs" need to fall the right (or wrong, if you're Bush) way.
IMO it seems to be a huge stretch at this point. I mean there are pay stubs that show he was paid for attending drills (obviously something had to trigger this pay). A dental exam was just released today from a place in Alabama showing he was there in January of '73. The people being quoted as saying they don't remember him being there either admit they could have forgotten since it was 30 years ago, or say there were >800 members of the unit so they couldn't possibly remember everyone. The fact that he missed a medical exam isn't uncommon. It happens all the time, whether regular military, reserves, or the guard.
