   | Right after Releasing Guard Records, Bush Agrees to Appear Before the   
   | 9/11 Commission   
   |   
   | "The White House maintains that Guard payroll records, a dental exam   
   | that Mr. Bush had in Alabama and the undisputed fact that he was living   
   | there during the time in question definitively prove that he turned up   
   | for duty. Mr. Bush's critics say the documents prove only that he had   
   | his teeth checked in Alabama on Jan. 6, 1973... The White House released   
   | the documents with little advance notice at 6:30 p.m... It seemed to be   
   | as much an effort at public relations as an attempt to quiet Mr. Bush's   
   | critics, at least temporarily, by demonstrating the president's   
   | willingness to be open about his military service. The announcement that   
   | Mr. Bush would appear before the 9/11 commission came less than a half-   
   | hour later, shortly before 7 p.m., in a short statement e-mailed to   
   | reporters by the White House. In it, the White House said Mr. Bush had   
   | agreed to a request for a private meeting with the commission, which is   
   | led by Thomas H. Kean, a former Republican governor of New Jersey."

   Now the WH says Bush will not meet withe the full commission. Probably only   
   the friendly Repubs.
