Was it "hate" when O'Reilly revealed that donations going to the Red Cross just after 9/11 were not going where they were supposed to?
Was it "hate" when O'Reilly revealed judges who gave light sentences to child molesters?
Was it "hate" when O'Reilly pushed to have Jesscia's Law passed in all 50 states?

And if O'Reilly didn't back up what he says with facts, he would have been sued many times over by now!
Here's one lawsuit for ya.

And if he was sued for reporting false information. You know, the same kind of false info that Dan Rather reported about Bush's National Guard record.

Like Limbaugh, he's a hero.
I am not "apologizing" for Bush. He served; Clinton is a draft-dodger.

It matters because it proves the claim false that Bush "deserted," was "AWOL" or "didn't put in the required time."

I'm not sure if I would.

I just wanted to set the record straight. Because if Bush was really AWOL, you can be sure it would have been headline news for at least 6 months.

However, I once read on a forum that a person can't be AWOL from the National Guard in the way you can be in the Army or Navy.

Both avoided Nam. The Bush clan had money and connections. Daddy used both to keep sonny boy safe at home, but with pilot's wings. Then, sonny boy cut out.

But idiot grandsons of billionaires are well insulated from responsibility in America. Even up to his last day in office, Bush claimed long and loud that it wasn't his fault he screwed things up so badly. There's still something like 22% of the public who buy into his claim. Obviously, you count yourself in that number. Whatver helps you make it through the night.

What "denial?" I have criticized Bush on quite a few issues.

Clinton received a notice to appear. He did not; he is a draft-dodger.
Bush never received a notice to appear. He did serve in the National Guard. He is not a draft-dodger.
