   A biography written about Bush ("Fortunate Son: George W. Bush & the   
   Making of an American President" by J. H. Hatfield and Greg Palast)   
   apparently establishes the evidence of Bush using family connections to   
   swing the Guard enlistment.   
      
   You want more evidence, other than that and common sense, for which you   
   apparently have no capacity?
