WASHINGTON � President Bush ranked in the middle of his Air National Guard (search) flight class and flew 336 hours in a fighter jet before letting his pilot status lapse and missing a key readiness drill in 1972, according to his flight records belatedly uncovered Tuesday under the Freedom of Information Act (search).

The Pentagon and Bush's campaign have claimed for months that all records detailing his fighter pilot career have been made public, but defense officials said they found two dozen new records detailing his training and flight logs after The Associated Press filed a lawsuit and submitted new requests under the public records law.

"Previous requests from other requesters for President Bush's Individual Flight Records did not lead to the discovery of these records because at the time President Bush left the service, flight records were subject to retention for only 24 months and we understood that neither the Air Force nor the Texas Air National Guard retained such records thereafter," the Pentagon told the AP.

And just to let everyone know I am not anti Republican or anti Democrat, I lived 16 years in the USA, and got out in time. I am just anti "Moron". The USA used to be a great country, but it is slowly sliding into the abyss.

His mediocre grade reflect on his less than mediocre job as a President.

Fewer jobs, worsening economy and the use of America's sons and daughters to further his agenda. Thank God the election is not far off, and maybe America will wake up and reflect on the difference between the "Clinton" years and the "Bushes"(both of them) years.
