The New York Times > Opinion > Op-Ed Columnist: Mr. Bush's Glass House
NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF thinks George W. Bush is hiding something about his past, since he won't clear up his record about his service in the Air National Guard. He is less concerned about what he did, then the fact that Mr. Bush won't be honest about it. Mr. Bush got into the National Guard because of his name. In 1972, Mr. Bush's performance ratings deteriorated, he skipped his flight physical, he stopped flying military planes forever, he transferred to Alabama, and he did not report to certain drills there as ordered. The next year Mr. Bush skipped off to Harvard Business School. He still had almost another year in the Guard which he did not serve.
