Another Medal Controversy 
The rabid hyenas at Democratic Underground are all in a tizzy over whether Dubya was photographed wearing a medal he did not earn.

I don't think there's any there there. The medal in question, the Air Force Outstanding Unit Award, is simply worn as a matter of course by all members of the unit for as long as they are in that unit. In practice, there would be no reason to annotate it on a form AF11. You would only have to take it off when he transferred. Multiply that by several hundred people constantly transferring in and out, and updating AF11 with temporary unit awards would turn out to be a major clerical task.

Fat chance.

As long as he was a member of that unit, no one would have reason to question the award. So there would be no reason to update the AF11 with it. Nor would it go on a DD214. Heck, half the time the DD214 doesn't even reflect medals a servicemember actually DID earn. Mine STILL doesn't have the Basic Parachutist's Badge (I graduated from Airborne School on August 17th, I think, 1991)!

Just for the sake of argument, though...if a servicemember were to wear an unauthorized decoration, why the hell would anyone in his right mind choose a unit award????

The Marksmanship badge should probably have been noted on a form, though, or written up somewhere in the form of an order. BUT, if the badge is temporary, and Bush didn't requalify expert later, he probably would lose the right to wear the small arms expert ribbon. And the AF11 would be updated to reflect that fact.

But the fact that even some of the Democratic Underground wingnuts are sceptical ought to belie the nothingness of the claim.

Splash, out

Comments:
its amazing to me that you can say fat chance about bush but you believe the lies against kerry. you make me sick jason, ver, very sick. I want to be sympathetic to you. I kinda want to agree with you sometimes, but then I read the thoughts and words decending from your confused mind - and I think to myself - that's it! the world has ended, some total moron has backed bush - I have entered the twilight zone. I mean look at the republican economic package / fiscal plane - its backs the rich - middle and poor class be damned - and then I see all these poor people sticking up for his policies. I mean, I know that poorness (is that a word) brings IGNORANCE, but I mean, read a book, it doesn't have to bring illeteracy too! - Jason you are so out of touch with reailty it just makes me sad. I spent so long getting mad a people like you, but those times have passed. Now, I don't feel empathy, I feel pity - b/c that's what people of your "level" or understanding deserve - MY PITY!

FUCK george w. bush and you can go fuck yourself

(that's free speeach mother fucker)

ps jason I am the one that keeps responding to your lies and CRAP- and you know jason, I refuse to quit. I hate your lies and mistellings so much that I am making it my personal preoject to attack everything that you say - so have fun if you want to remove it all - otherwisw welcome and KISS MY ASS

PSS (I save all these [just to be annoying] so that I can repost them when you delete them -- what you don't believe me, TRY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Hola! Well done on a nice blog Blogger. I was looking for information on spanish love poems and came across your post this post - not precisely what I was looking for related to spanish love poems but an interesting read all the same!

You see I've just started out learning Spanish. I think I've found a pretty good method, but I'm constantly trying to learn more - faster - and improve. I can't wait to get over to Panama. Already made contact with a few hot Latina chicks. Looks VERY promising. Just got to improve on the Spanish :o)

If you'd like to keep an eye on my progress and perhaps provide some helpful advice, everyone's welcome. Please just surf over to Learn Spanish for Love. I look forward to meeting you.

Hasta luego!
