And that he did not finish his military obligation to the TNAG?

Wait a sec...you said "websites" and "credible" (or, at least I assume you meant "credible") in the same sentence!
"Websites" and "credible" are often mutually exclusive concepts.

Do you remember a guy named Dan Rather? He lost his job in a public way for making that implication on national television. Do you know why he lost his job? Because his sources weren't credible. Are you aware that desertion is a felony? Are you aware that desertion in time of war is punishable by death? Even if you are a rich kid. Are you aware that a man with a felony on his record who runs for president would have that splashed all over the television and any other type of mass communication media? Particularly a Republican running for president who is the son of a Republican president. Come on, bud. Let's think this through. Nobody who deserted from his/her unit would survive the process of running for office. There are too many people looking into your background for that. Bush would never have been governor of Texas, much less President of the United States, if there was any truth to the desertion story. You can't cover something like that up. It WILL come out eventually. So, any story about Bush deserting is unadulterated BS.

The answer is simple - those websites offering "credible" evidence (websites that you failed to name, by the way, skippy) are "conspiracist" websites that create "evidence" to support whatever farfetched, lame-brained, anti-Bush story they want to print just to try in a vain attempt to make the President look bad.
And gullible people like you, who would rather believe everything they read on the web rather than look it up using truly credible sources, believe what they say as if it were handed down from Moses coming down off the mountain.
The truth is simple - Bush hasn't been charged with anything by anybody because he did nothing, either then or now, to be charged. He completed his term in the Guard, and that's that.

Wow, you must be really "special" if you believe everything posted on the web. I'll bet you think that the U.S. never landed a man on the moon, and that it was all faked in Hollywood. I'll bet you believe that JFK was killed by the CIA. I'll bet you believe there was never a Holocaust, and that the Germans never slaughtered more than 6 million Jews. I'll bet you believe that the attack on Pearl Harbor was carried out by American airmen flying planes painted to look like Japanese bombers so we could have an excuse to defeat Japan to take all their sushi and ramen noodles.
Even the Democrats, in their insane, irrational hatred, didn't accuse him of desertion. And Dan Rather lost his job and whatever miniscule credibility he ever had by faking documents that claimed to prove that Bush was a deserter.
Maybe what you need to do is get Bush's actual military record and read it for yourself.

Hey, a few links here would help.
Really do you think the press, New York Times, ETC. wouldn't have published this in the headlines, or did the NYT and all of the press suddenly become Conservative? Not a single liberal or Democratic paper out saw fit to print this? Come on do you believe everything you read on the web?
I hope not.

Because those sites are part of the left wing idiot shorthanders that hate America, and would do anything to see President Bush fail in Iraq. The man is a true American hero, with real brass monkeys, and a vision the uninformed are incapable, or in denial of understanding.

The President did NOT DESERT! Desertion is a FELONY. One cannot become President of the U.S. with a felony on his/her record. Good grief the ignorance of school kids today!

Then why don't you show us some of these links?
The argument as I understand it, is not that he deserted. But he joined the Air National Guard to avoid having to do something such as Infantry.
The Air National Guard is still far and above what most people in America do.

You believe everything you read on the web, that is lame.

Terrorist supporters have put those websites on.
Everyone knows they are lies.
Bush served his time.
It was Clinton that was the draft-dodging-traitor.
