I was under the impression this was about GHWB being a coward, not his credentials as a "true conservative" or good president. Those issues are not mutually exclusive.

George,
Read the title of this thread. And access the links I've posted. Bush bailed out of his plane to save his a$s at the expense of his two crew members. The right procedure was for Bush to have attempted a water landing thereby attempting to save the lives of his crew members. That was his job. His job was not to save his a$s at the expense of his crew members lives. That was established protocol.
George, if you want to retain your belief that Bush was a hero, I'm good. But those who were there and know what Bush did have a very different take on Bush's status as a hero. And just doing his job does not make him a hero, just like your just doing your job does not make you a hero. Access the link I've posted about Vincent Bugliosi's definition of a hero for enlightenment.
