Bush's Bogus Medals

GUEST CONTRIBUTION by Bob Fertik

Wearing an unearned medal is certainly a "character" issue of the highest order.
In 1996, when Admiral Jeremy Boorda, Chief of US Naval Operations, was presented with evidence that he wore medals that he had not earned, he committed suicide in disgrace.
And this is not the first time a prominent Bush has been accused of unearned medals. Bush's grandfather Prescott was caught with bogus medal claims during WW I, a humiliation that drove him out of his home town of Columbus OH.

The media needs to demand the truth from Bush about his medals -- and about his still-unexplained grounding.
