Here’s a Real Story about a Real Draft Dodger

Here is the video of former Texas Lieutenant Governor Barnes apologizing for helping George W. Bush, and the children of other wealthy supporters, avoid the Vietnam War through National Guard service.

UPDATE: And Michael Moore has some great ideas here for more ads the Bush Campaign can run:

“ANNOUNCER: ‘Mr. Kerry’s biggest supporter, Sen. Max Cleland, claims to have lost two legs and an arm in Vietnam. But he still has one arm! How did that happen? One word: Cowardice. When duty called, he was unwilling to give his last limb. Is that the type of selfishness you want hanging out in the White House? We think not. Vote for the man who would be willing to give America his right frontal lobe. Vote Bush.’”
