SHRUB'S SCRUB: NATIONAL GUARD RECORDS
Author of Bush's Brain was on IE's Peter B Collins show

He said he has a witness who was there when the order to scrubs Bush's service record was issue by the Governers campaign.

5. Greg Palast has covered this too
There was a BBC program broadcast earlier this year (but only on BBC3, which is a cable/satellite/digital broadcast only channel, so it reaches less than half of the country):

March 19, 2003—I've sat in total grief for the past three years, watching the institutions of America being spent as if they were lottery winnings.

I don't want to say it, "But I told you so."

In January of 1998 and what seems like a full lifetime ago, I was stricken by a deadly case of meningoencephalitis. I was returning from a short duty trip to Panama as a team chief to inspect the hand over of Ft. Clayton to the Panamanians. I had been 'loaned' from the senior staff and state planning officer of the Texas National Guard to the Department of the Army for a series of these special projects after angering George W. Bush by refusing to falsify readiness information and reports; confronting a fraudulent funding scheme which kept 'ghost' soldiers on the books for additional funding, and refusing to alter official personnel records (of George W. Bush).

George W. Bush and his lieutenants were mad. They ordered that I not be accessed to emergency medical care services, healthcare benefits I earned by my official duty; and I was withheld from medical care for 154 days before I was withdrawn from Texas responsibility by the Department of the Army, by order of the White House.
