• February 17 -- "Mounting War Casualties" Put Spotlight on Bush's Guard Record
David Barstow makes a shaky link between casualties in Iraq and questions on Bush's Guard service: "...with Iraq casualties mounting, with angry Democrats coalescing behind a decorated Vietnam veteran and with credibility questions dogging Mr. Bush, the broad-brush defense has been abandoned."
• February 13 -- Globe Bashes Burkett's Anti-Bush Story: Will the
NYT React?
The NYT-affiliated Boston Globe disputes allegations by Bill Burkett on Bush's National Guard record. The
Times found Burkett sufficiently credible to use as the basis for a 1,000-word anti-Bush story Thursday. With Burkett's credibility now in question, will the Times follow up?
• February 12 -- Old Anti-Bush Whine in New Bottle
The Times squeezes 1,050-words out of old allegations about Bush's National Guard service from a source who last year wrote on Iraq: "I feel sickness that today another massive group of people, held worthless by this anointed king, will be trampled upon like grapes. But their blood will not be rendered into wine."
