Bush military records "inadvertently destroyed"
"The Pentagon states that military recors that could help establish President Bush's whereabouts during his disputed Texas Air National Guard service more than 30 years ago were inadvertently destroyed..."

"inadvertently destroyed?" Hmm, me thinks this smells fishy.

1. The cover-up continues
You are right - smells fishy. Is anyone really surprised by this latest news?

2. Yeah...
It's a funny story too. The guy was holding the microfiche in his hands, next to the vat of sulfuric acid, when he tripped dropping the microfiche into the vat of sulfuric acid, destroying them completely.
Damn those bad breaks.
But it was an accident -- I swear.

4. Accidentally on purpose
And Saddam was Osama's comrade-in-arms, too.

6. Hmm, between 1996 and 1997
When Bob Dole lost the 96 election.

Prepping for a pResidential run in 2000? Hmmm . . .
