AWOL Bush

Friday February 13, 2004
View a series of editorial cartoons about the controversy over President Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard.

"Daily Show" host Jon Stewart has a question for the White House press corps covering the Bush AWOL story.

And finally, an explanation of the gap in Bush's military record.

Punch Lines
"The White House has now released military documents that they say prove George Bush met his requirements for the National Guard. Big deal, we've got documents that prove Al Gore won the election." —Jay Leno

"Critics are now saying that his dad got him out of going to Vietnam. However, his dad did get him to go to Iraq." —Jay Leno

"Ironically, the possibility that the president dodged his military service has increased his approval ratings with Democrats by 80 percent." —Craig Kilborn
