Bush lied about his military service.

If not, its hardly comparable.
Why not? Because the level of rhetoric was somewhat more subdued? It's still a lie. One repeated throughout the campaign until it became impossible to back up.

I don't think that Bush is any less culpable because the memory of his fictitious service defending Galveston and Corpus Christi is not searedinto his memory like the incontrovertible evidence of WMD in Iraq. (oops. how did that slip out?)
