Although I've been guilty of posting too-large bits of stories, I try to only post excerpts. If a story disappears into the ether, well someone really interested will have to pay for the archive or search the hard copy.

The vast majority of news stories are cached at news.google.com (.e.g. [link|http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&edition=us&q=Bush+Texas+Air+National+Guard&btnG=Search+News|Bush Texas Air National Guard] search) for quite a while.

[link|http://monthly-messenger.org/Library/Bush_Military/Main.htm|Story with links] on Bush's Texas Air National Guard days. (Found by searching news.google.com using a URL from Dan Gillmor's [link|http://weblog.siliconvalley.com/column/dangillmor/archives/001268.shtml#001268|August 10 column]).

Cheers,
Scott.
