Is Bush a "Deserter"? (2)

A few references on Bush as a "deserter" from the Air Guard:

Blogs

Daily Howler (Bob Somerby): Days of Bias (11/26/03) Not Curious About George (01/20/04) Peter Jennings Missing Years (01/23/04)  Kit-Flop (01/28/04) Houston, You Don't Have a Problem (01/30/04)

Somerby focuses on media criticism and he does it the way it should be done. In the process, he explains facts that the mainstream press manage to scramble (or ignore!).

David Neiwert at Orcinus has been all over this story, too. If you haven't been looking at this story, you may be surprised at how many people who have, as Niewert's links show: Bush the 'Deserter' (01/23/04) AWOL Bush: Debunked? Hardly! (01/26/04) A Quick Question (01/26/04) All AWOL All the Time(01/27/04) More AWOL (01/29/04). One of his many links is to a Web site devoted to the subject: AWOLBush.com.

Hesiod weighed in: here and here. As did Jonathan Chait and Josh Marshall.
