Anyone think this jail sentence reasonable?

[Montezuma]

How many times has George W. Bush been arrested?  Is it 3?

[senna]

Sentencing teens like this is rather harsh.

[Kieran]

Montezuma-

How many felony convictions? How many assaults?

Hey Monte, well we know of one DUI the one that wasn’t released to the public until four days before the election. Then there might have been another one a few years earlier when he had brother Melvin in the car.. He knocked the trash cans at the family home all the way to Plaino and had a big fight with his dad. This is the conviction where they think he got a new drivers license number. Then there’s a possible third arrest involving cocaine but that got successfully covered up.

Of course you or I would have been thrown into the stockade had we been AWOL from the Texas Air National Guard for a year. President Bush has an honorable discarge but.... someone misplaced the documentation.

His Vice President, Dick Cheney, has 1 DUI conviction in the mid 60’s. So both the President and Vice President have police records.

Hells bells.. I say we give the lil retard 10 years!

..and his pal cheney oughta get 5 just because those of us that remember don't want annuther dick in the whitehouse.

Bush’s National Guard Timeline

Oct. 1, 1973: Receives honorable discharge


Do they give those to members while they are AWOL?

Funny that a thread that started out with a kid getting harsh sentence is now a Bush thread.

Take a deep breath... it's only two years or so till ya get to try again.  

All this gettin' riled up will do nothing to change anything until then. Get out there and work for the candidate of your choice. Channel your discontent into something positive.

See if ya can find us someone other than Mrs. Clinton or Gore this time.

Don't allow children the same rights as adults, but punish them as adults .

 Maybe when they're grown up they will resent youth more than this generation .

Toad are you sure this is the link you want us to go to to exonerate your boy? Oh oh...Muhahahahah oh oh lard have mercy!!!

“The official records were either lost or misplaced or not filled out correctly or not deposited. We are not sure,” Bartlett said. [/i]

Blahahahahh cough... Bhlahahahahah their not sure

“I can’t remember what I did, but I wasn’t flying because they didn’t have the same airplanes. I fulfilled my obligations,” he said.[/i]

He can’t remember what he did!!!! whoa! whao! whoa! OH LARD OH LARD MUHAHAHAH

Oct. 1, 1973: Receives honorable discharge

Great! that’s swell! now please un-loose and un-misplace the certificate of discharge so you don’t have people think you’ve been AWOL for a friggin year...

[StNirfur]

You sure you want someone who recklessly endanger others in charge of yer country?

Hell, if he doesn't mind risking the lives of others because he's drunk and wanna drive, who knows what he'll be up to?

Seriously, DUI is far worse than stealing some beer. DUI kills loads of people, and IMHO should be sentenced like 2nd degree murder.

[Toad]

So it is your position that they give out an Honorable Dishcharge to  a person that is AWOL?

[lazs2]

If the charge was "successfully covered up"... then how the hell do you know it ever existed.   It is like your pedophile charge that was sealed.   We should let it go.

For the LAST TIME- four felony convictions = 10 years in prison. And that, friends, is how it SHOULD be. The fact that so many of you "violent felons" managed to escape justice and turn your lives around has nothing to do with it. He was caught- AGAIN, he was convicted- AGAIN, and this time he was sentanced in accordinance with what a repeat violent felon deserves.

The attempts by so many of you to portray this kid as simply being "misspent youth" is laughable. If one more of you says "10 years is too much time for stealing beer" without recognizing the fact that he's a repeat, violent felon I'll friggin scream.

Now about GWB and the Air National Guard- National Guard units were basically closed to the "common" potential draftee and were used as a heaven for the sons of the rich and powerful to avoid service in Viet Nam. Likewise college deferments were widely used to avoid the draft, but how many of you realise that enrolling in a free community college wouldn't exempt you from the draft? You had to be enrolled in a 4 year college to get a deferment, and do you know what most colleges did between 1965 and 1971? That's right- They increased their tuitions as the numbers of kids seeking enrollment went up. That way those kids of rich parents didn't have to serve and those of us from a more modest background served in Viet Nam. That's a fact, guys.

Actually, I think that's free market in action, not some overt plan by "the Man".
