Bush to release pay records.

From Fox News: bq. The White House, facing election-year questions about President Bush's military service, is releasing pay records and other information intended to support his assertion that he fulfilled his duty as a member of the Air National Guard during the Vietnam war. bq. The material, to be released Tuesday, was to include pay records and annual retirement point summaries to show that Bush served. bq. "These records clearly document that the president fulfilled his duty," White House press secretary Scott McClellan said. bq. The point summaries were released during the 2000 presidential campaign but the pay records were not obtained by the White House until late Monday from the Air Reserve Personnel Center in Denver, Colo., McClellan said. He said the center, apparently acting on its own, reviewed Bush's records and came up with the pay information. And will we have a retraction from W. Clark and company who made public statements saying that Bush was AWOL? General Clark? (crickets) Posted by DaveH at February 10, 2004 10:01 AM
