Print out a copy including the referenced documents and you'll never lose this argument again....unless you waste your time talking to moonbats.

According to CBSnews.com,

On Tuesday, a private anti-Bush group called Texans for Truth offered a $50,000 reward for "anyone who can prove Bush's claim that he fulfilled his service requirements."

ASPB if you win the $50,000, will you donate part of it to SBVT?

I am curious as to how you "prove" he did what his honorable discharge said he did. I looked up the terms of their generous offer and got this (emphasis mine):

Quote:
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE REWARD

What is the reward for?

Texans for Truth is offering a reward of $50,000 for original information proving whether George W. Bush performed duties in the Air National Guard between May 1972 and May 1973 at Dannelly Air National Guard Base in Alabama on the terms and conditions set forth below. This offer of reward expires on September 30, 2004. Texans for Truth reserves the right, however, to terminate this Reward Offer at an earlier date at its sole discretion.

What type of information is eligible?

Texans for Truth is looking for new, original information concerning George W. Bush’s performance of military duty, or lack thereof, between May 1972 and May 1973.

To be eligible, the information must not have been previously disclosed to the media (including television, radio, cable, Internet, and print publications) and must be comprised of the following (“Eligible Information”):

1. 1. Firsthand, eyewitness testimony – this type of information includes sworn firsthand accounts that George W. Bush performed Air National Guard duty, or lack thereof, between May 1972 and July 1973. It also includes firsthand knowledge of statements made by Mr. Bush concerning his Air National Guard activities during that time; and
2. 2.Documentary evidence – copies of genuine and authentic documents describing George W. Bush’s performance of Air National Guard duty, including the required drills or lack thereof, between May 1972 and July 1973.

Like an honorable discharge?

What about Calhoun?

Eligible Information must be comprised of legal and competent evidence that would be admissible in a court of law. For the information to be eligible, its release cannot violate any applicable law including, but not limited to, the Freedom of Information Act and the Privacy Act of 1973.

Eligible Information does not include information based on speculation, rumor, hearsay or innuendo, or information that has already been made public.

Submission of information in support of a request for a reward under this offer constitutes your warranty and representation that the information falls within the definition of Eligible Information and is truthful, accurate, and submitted in good faith to the best of your knowledge, information, and belief. When you submit information to Texans for Truth it also means that disclosure of the information by you to us does not violate either any applicable law or any duty you may have to third parties.

Who is eligible to receive the reward?

Adults over the age of eighteen years with firsthand knowledge or lawful possession of Eligible Information are eligible to receive the reward following an eligibility review to be performed by the Texans for Truth.

The following individuals are ineligible to receive the reward: (1) officers or employees of any political party or political campaign; (2) full- and part-time employees of the media including, but not limited to, the print media, television, cable, radio, and the Internet; and (3) anyone who has donated goods, money or services to Texans for Truth.

By submitting information in response to our reward offer, you are consenting to a background check by us in order to assess the veracity, genuineness, and authenticity of the information and to determine your eligibility to receive the reward.

So they decide if it is true and if you are eligible.

By submitting information in response to our reward offer, you are consenting, if you receive a reward, to attend and participate in one or more news conferences.

How do I submit information to be eligible for the reward?

Information should be provided by completing the form found at www.texansfortruth.com/vetinfo/ and submitting the requested information, as directed in the form A complete form includes providing no less than five Montgomery, Alabama National Guard veterans that served on the Dannely Base from 1972- 1973, with current contact information, who can corroborate your story.

Completion of the Web site form and submission of information by you to us mean the following:

* All submissions become the property of Texans for Truth, which will be entitled to disclose the information to any and all third parties. By completing the form and making a submission to Texans for Truth you are indicating your consent to the disclosure of any information contained in the submission, including the disclosure of your identity to third parties such as the media.
* Any and all communications you send to this Web site, its reward offer or to Texans for Truth are made on a non-confidential basis, and Texans for Truth is under no obligation to refrain from reproducing, publishing or otherwise using them in any way for any purpose. Texans for Truth shall be free to use the content of such electronic mail communications for any purpose.


Given the caveats and loopholes, and the fact that Bush did a virtual document dump months ago, it looks like their money is safe. They decide if the data is acceptable (guess any CBS documentation is out!! LOL!!)


Maybe someone ought to offer a prize for anyone who had seen Kerry in Cambodia........

ASPB, most(if not all) those still trying to make that case are Moonbats. I have yet to talk to one who wasn't anyhow. Same folks believe he was the one who was behind the 9/11 Attacks or at least allowed them to happen.
I have found it useless to argue with those people, they do not want to see facts that contradict their belief in the Tooth Fairy either.

Here's a photo of Kerry in "full stealth outfit" standing behind one of his "wittnesses" on the banks of the Mekong deep inside Cambodia. No kidding, this is real, newly discovered, honest...why are you looking at me like that?...Dan, did they leave that overprint on the picture? I thought your expert airbrushed that off...."Pay no attention to any wording on the photo. It was placed there by a Bush supporter who hacked into our secret website and tried to discredit us. We are not called Credibility Be S**ewed for nothing."

Google "bigfoot" or any of the other names used to describe it. It, like Kerry, is the figment of a fertile imagination. Laughing
