In a letter responding to a freedom of information request by The Associated Press, the Defense Department said that microfilm containing the pertinent National Guard payroll records was damaged and could not be salvaged. The damaged material included payroll records for the first quarter of 1969 and the third quarter of 1972.

Nice one!

From "Yes Minister"

Jim: How am I going to explain the missing documents to the Mail?
Sir Humphrey: Well this is what we normally do in, circumstances like these. [hands over a file]
Jim: [reading] This file contains the complete set of papers, except for a number of secret documents, a few others which are part of still active files, a few others lost in the flood of 1967. [to Humphrey] Was 1967 a particularly bad winter?
Sir Humphrey: No a marvellous winter, we lost no end of embarrassing files.
Jim: [reading] Some records which went astray in the move to London, and others when the War Office was incorporated in the Ministry of Defence, and the normal withdrawal of papers whose publication could give grounds for an action for liable or breach of confidence, or cause embarrassment to friendly governments. [to Humphrey] Well that's pretty comprehensive. How many does that normally leave for them to look at? [Humphrey says nothing] How many does that actually leave? About a hundred? Fifty? Ten? Five? Four? Three? Two? One? Zero?
Sir Humphrey: Yes Minister.

This is a case of lies covering more lies. I don't care that he sat in a special unit designed to protect rich kids. What I do care about is that the fucker was too busy snorting coke to even be bothered to show up for that meager responsibility and now he is scrambling to cover up the evidence. It will be interesting to see if Ken Lay decides to push some of GWs buttons to get his ass out of the fire, since they were both in that particular unit and he seems to be the only living person able to state GWs whereabouts at that time.

There has been no evidence that Bush snorted coke. Drinking, yes but no coke. Even all the biographers have never found any evidence.

Well here then, let me edit Jice's statement for you:

What I do care about is that the fucker was too busy getting trashed to even be bothered to show up for that meager responsibility and now he is scrambling to cover up the evidence. It will be interesting to see if Ken Lay decides to push some of GWs buttons to get his ass out of the fire, since they were both in that particular unit and he seems to be the only living person able to state GWs whereabouts at that time.

If the records of his "military service" can't even be found is it any surprise the coke sniffing has been well covered up?
