Reality check! Bush did not give a damn about the military! He proved that during his own enlistment(?) What little that he did was for his cronies in the military complex, can you say haliburton? Bringing up the POTUS in this discussion as no baring on anything. Obama did not serve and NO ONE in Bush's administration served either (don't count Colin Powell b/c they did not listen to him anyway) but yet started the crap in Iraq!

Reality Check-

Bush is not president any longer.

Let's live in the present.

Millard Filmore did not cause Obama's problems, nor did George Bush.

Obama has caused Obama's problems.

His major was in Stupidity and a minor in arrogance
His talent was in beer bonging and coke snorkling

Also he tried every loophole to get out of the draft?? Any proof of that?

Well if you ask Karl Rove he will tell you GW is the more honorable of the too. Funny how they can paint a soldier that went to Vietnam as a phony but GW served his country honorably. Bush has to be one of the first soldiers that was MIA stateside.

No, by any standards, he was never AWOL. Show me in his official National Guard record where he was.

If you want to be mad, be mad about our 42nd president who was an actual draft dodger.
