George Bailey: It's a Wonderful LIE

[wyethwire]

ST. GEORGE--For years, Dorchester County state lawmaker George Bailey's resume appeared top-notch. He graduated from a prestigious university in Virginia and was a Marine Corps veteran, it said.

Neither claim is true.

The closest Bailey came to enrolling at Washington & Lee University, where the average freshman SAT scores is higher than 1200, is when he attended Lee Institute School of Real Estate in Brookline, Mass., he conceded Wednesday.

He also isn't a Marine veteran, despite what his official biography has said for 20 years. The extent of his military service was as reservist in a training unit during high school, he said. He never went through formal boot camp.Bailey, 67, who owns a real estate and construction company, called the discrepancies an oversight that he's worked years to correct. Democrats say Bailey's lapse in setting the record straight makes him unfit to serve again.
