WHITE HOUSE MISLEADS ON BUSH'S MILITARY RECORDS
On February 10, 2004, the White House released documents related to
President Bush's military service record. At the time, White House]
spokesman Scott McClellan said those documents included definitive proof
that Bush was paid during the three-month time period when Bush's
whereabouts were in question.[1] McClellan said, "When you serve, you are
paid for that service. And these documents outline the days on which he was
paid. That means he served." McClellan glossed over the fact that the
crucial pay records from the third quarter of 1972 were missing.
Now, responding to a Freedom of Information Act Request by the New York
Times, the Administration says that the payroll records that could have
finally settled the controversy were "inadvertently destroyed."[2] According
to the Pentagon, the records were ruined during 1996 or 1997 "during a
project to salvage deteriorating microfilm." Conveniently, the Pentagon was
unable to locate any paper backups.
