Dan Balz (ABC), on Washington Week in Review, summed up the White House response to the question of whether Bush disobeyed a direct order when he refused to take his flight medical:
"The White House continues to say that he received an honorable discharge and therefore questions about his service are irrelevant."
Soon to come: "The White House continues to say that George Bush was elected President of the United States, and therefore questions about his leadership are irrelevant."
