They're playing games here, pure and simple...
Not that I expected any less.The White House has announced that they will realease some pay records.
The White House, facing election-year questions about President Bush's military service, is releasing pay records and other information intended to support his assertion that he fulfilled his duty as a member of the Air National Guard during the Vietnam war.The material, to be released Tuesday, was to include pay records and annual retirement point summaries to show that Bush served.
"These records clearly document that the president fulfilled his duty," White House press secretary Scott McClellan said.
The point summaries were released during the 2000 presidential campaign but the pay records were not obtained by the White House until late Monday from the Air Reserve Personnel Center in Denver, Colo., McClellan said. He said the center, apparently acting on its own, reviewed Bush's records and came up with the pay information.
To the casual observer, it would look like they're releasing sufficient proof that Bush fulfilled his obligation to the TANG. But it's still being filtered through the White House - which means we're only going to see what they want us to see.
Let them release everything, and let the reader decide. Anything less is rather, umm, Nixon-esque...
Make the entire jacket public, I say.

Have the press kept this issue off the air to crush Senor Shrub before the election? It's amazing what the American people will pay attention to. The American masses only seem to really give a rat's ass about politics every four years or so.
