1. Wow! That is pretty strange. Makes you wonder what will come of it.
Putting a little fuel on the fire.

3. RE: AWOL
With the advent of Nader & Gay Marriage, the AWOL story is officially dead.

Rove needed to unite Americans, to give them another target... and nothing brings together people more than HATE. Now he's got his wish.

He's united Democrats against Nader, and united Republicans against Gay Marriage. the AWOL story is no longer page 1 news. Or page 2, 3, 46, etc. Newspapers, TV Channels, DU, etc

But then, we had our day in the sun, right? Did we accomplish all our goals? We were never gonna get impeachment out of an accusation of desertion. The best we could hope for get is embarassing Bush, both on his claims as a 'War President', and getting the Nation to compare him to Kerry, 'War Hero'.

We succeeded, didn't we? Our best hopes were fulfilled, right? The AWOL story will NEVER return to page 1 of anything for the rest of this election. I'll never stop reminding people, but as far as the media's concerned, it's old news. Dead.

Right?

4. Well, if he united DEMS against Nader...
...and gays against Republicans, then that is a GOOD thing.

AWOL is even in the comic strips- EVERYONE is talking about it... it's just one scandal of many to be brought up...

Trudeau gets his teeth into your leg like this. Dig Nixxon up and ask him about it.

7. It's the same way with operation pull
Nobody seems to recall his being there in 1972, although he makes a big deal out of it, and just why would a spoiled rich white boy be doing working down in the ghetto anyway?

8. It would be better to offer $10K
for the truth of why *Bush did community service and why he didn't take the phys in the guard. That is the story.

9. Doonesbury should set up a Donations link on his site
So the honest people of America can made a donation to the Corroborate the Claim fund.

Up the ante.

I'll bet we could get the reward over $1 mil in a month or less.
