Case Closed

All the pundits tonight seem to agree that the case over the president's military records is closed.

Really? All he had to do was appear with Guard personnel who actually served today and it's all done? I mean, nothing else changed. The only personnel who can say conclusively Bush was in Alabama, besides his dental record from a single visit, was even noted on CNN yesterday or today to have a great many holes in his facts.

Again, I'm not sure it was ever a huge deal. After all, Bush not being what he seems or perhaps should be is not a new phenomenon. Does he seem like he was Yale and Harvard Business School educated? Does he even seem like the son of a former president? Does he seem either compassionate or conservative?

But I'll be sorry to see this swept under the rug without due investigation. On Friday, there seemed to be some sentiment that all the records released did not answer some of the substantial questions. Today, it's over. I'm not sure what was supposed to have occurred in the interim.
