DALLAS (AP) - Former Texas House Speaker Ben Barnes said he is
``more
ashamed at myself than I've ever been'' because he helped
President
Bush and
the sons of other wealthy families get into the Texas National
Guard
so they
could avoid serving in Vietnam.

So if I were somebody who could have joined the National Guard to
avoid combat status does that make me smart or stupid, brave or
cowardly?

In the case of GWB, and other well to do people of Texas, in this
case, it would make you privledged.

What if it were your son and you could get him out of Vietnam this
way?

One can only hope that basskisser isn't allowed to procreate. If he
is,
it's just proof that God *does* have a sense of humor.

Personal insults just show that you can't disagree with what I've
stated.

LMAO!!!!!!!!! This coming from the king of personal insults.

Yep.....typical of the socialist lefties.......they whine about others doing
the same thing they do........LMAO too

Where did I whine, you ignorant putz? I simply stated a fact.

Actually, you never answered the question.

To refresh your memory:

If you had the opportunity to keep your son out of the active combat
military to avoid Vietnam by jumping ahead of others and joining the
National Guard, would you?

Later,

Tom

What to **** does THAT question have to do with ME???? Fritz said that
I whined. I've never been asked the above question, and therefore have
never offered an answer.
