[NativeTexan]

[BlueEyedSon]

3. Oh for f*&k's sake... just when I think we can't get any more through the

looking glass.....

[FSogol]

4. I can't read the text on the bust. Is it the results of his dental exam?

:-)

[rkc3]

12. And pounds of coke snorted during his ten-minute stint in thr Guard.

[Stephanie]

14. I believe it's the results of his drugs test

Positive!

[FSogol]

16. Heh-heh. His only positive. n/t

[bluethruandthru]

5. Too bad it's just a bust..

We don't get to see that package shrubby loves to show off in his flightsuit!

[Stephanie]

15. Well he left his socks at home that day when he posed for the sculptor

so no package

[Nickster]

6. Well, they got the bust part of it right.

[speedoo]

7. Words fail me. nt

[Crankie Avalon]

8. They were hoping for a better likeness...

...only no one in the Guard from back then seems to remember what he looked like.

[Fridays Child]

9. Who did the sculptor use as a model? Because that ain't George.

Not even close.

[Jane Austin]

26. Yeah, shrub WISHES he looked like that!

n/t

[Cyrano]

10. Well, at least it gives us something solid to spit on.

[blue in ohio]

21. good point.... is that legal.

(did I spell loogey right? I've never had to spell it before)

[NoFederales]

Most people have heard something about George W. Bush pulling strings to get into the Texas Air Guard. But the press, while reporting lots of details, has done a poor job of communicating how consistently and shamelessly Bush Jr. sought and received favorable treatment while he avoided Vietnam.

Furthermore, his story has repeatedly changed -- he has weaseled like Clinton at his worst and even flat-out lied when explaining what happened.

To put it in perspective, here are 9 ways Bush got favored treatment in the service due to his political connections (he was then son of a Congressman and grandson of a former Senator):
1) He got into the Guard by pulling strings, avoiding the year and a half waiting list;
2) He took a 2-month vacation in Florida after just 8 weeks, (1 of 3 leaves), to work on a political campaign;
3) Bush skipped Officer Candidate School and got a special commission as a 2nd Lieutenant, without qualifications;
4) He was assigned to a safe plane (being phased out of active service), the F-102 ;
5) During flight school, he was flown on a government jet to Washington for a date with President Nixon's daughter Tricia ;
6) Bush got an illegal transfer (later overruled) to a base with no work;
7) He simply didn't show up for a YEAR, with no penalty;
8) George W. skipped all his medical exams after they started drug tests, and was removed from flight status;
9) He ended his service 10 months early to go to Harvard Business School;

[Quakerfriend]

18. Thx Botany for that concise summary of the TRUTH!

These people are truly insane.

[Fridays Child]

17. There was already bust of George, when he was in the Guard...

A cocaine bust.

[SillyGoose]

19. Wow! I can't believe it. That's a kick in the pants to all the people

who did serve their country honorably. I agree with the earlier poster who said that bust doesn't even look like Junior.

[Supersedeas]

48. and a true disservice to those who were no 'fortunate' sons

[cyberpj]

20. Ok. Now more than ever, is the time to bring out the real evidence on this

Didn't I hear that Rather's producer for that railroaded segment had found more proof?

[VonDoomPhd]

25. Dentist

The upside to this is that he'll probably break a few teeth making out with it.

[cyberpj]

27. Really truly laughing out loud at that one.

Don't get paranoid, it's a DU habit of mine, I checked your profile. I LOVE NEW HOPE! Haven't been up there in a few years though. Reminds me of kayaks, great shops and some fun bars and cafes.

:hi:

[Up2Late]

22. But he doesn't look like a Drunk, fun guy in that bust?!?

What ever happened to accuracy in sculpture?

[grytpype]

23. This is the funniest thing I've seen all week!

Where's the statue of George walking off the base for the last time?

[BlueEyedSon]

24. Could a grass-roots response get them to remove it?

[Imalittleteapot]

28. Great - "honor his service" with bad art.

The bronze doesn't remotely resemble him. I wonder how much of our tax dollars went to the 3rd rate artist who created the bust.

[Mist]

29. They left out an important detail-the coke:

[imax2268]

30. Holy shit...

that just isn't right...what is wrong with this country...

[LibertyorDeath]

31. Should be melted down ASAP!

They can erect this one instead

[sakabatou]

33. That's pathetic! Abosolutely terrible!

:puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke::puke:

[SaveElmer]

34. Did it show him running...

In the opposite direction

[AzDar]

35. I am truly speechless.....although I think I just threw up in my mouth

a little.

[jillan]

36. That does not look anything like him.....

I think it was made for someone else,

and KKKarl bought it for bsh.

[Ian David]

37. He was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp...

or to have his eyes gouged-out, and his elbows broken!
To have his knee-caps split and his body burned away.
Or his limbs all hacked and mangled...

[xxqqqzme]

38. Did the scuptor use someone

w/ a chin implant?

[rasputin1952]

39. The only similarity I see, is thay neither of them have an IQ...

[karynnj]

40. Will it go missing for a year?

This is sick.

[peekaloo]

41. Other than the unibrow it doesn't even look like him.

[DemonGoddess]

42. BLEAGH

:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

[kwolf68]

43. Simply amazing.

Has our nation become a fake, f*****d up shithole...when a hero like John Kerry is mocked for actually putting his life on the line and this dickhead freak that has been planted in our White House gets a f*****g bust made of him. Geezus H christ....what on earth?

[Sugarcoated]

44. WTF!?!

:spray:
Too unbelievable for words! I've got a better one:

[Janice325]

45. Are you fucking kidding me???????

:puke:

[Sugarcoated]

46. Oh, this one is WAAAY more like it

[MrBenchley]

47. America's Most Famous Wartime Deserter

But why does the bust look like Robert Stack?

[obreaslan]

50. Memorial for the Unseen Soldier.

:puke:
