Like Bush???
Bush served in the military and received an honorable discharge. How, in
your perverse logic, do you consider that dodging the draft?
Perhaps we have been lied to on this side of the Atlantic. We've been
told that Bush avoided active duty by using family influence to get a
position in the National Guard. - and later he used the same influence to
avoid punishment for failing to complete his service.
In contrast, Kerry actually went to war in Vietnam.
It seems to me that, on one hand we have a corrupt coward, and on the
other
hand we have an honest citizen who was willing to do his duty.
When the corrupt coward became Commander in Chief, he used his power to
send
more honest citizens to their deaths in a foreign land.
I think to most intelligent folk it's patently obvious that Bush used his
family connections to get by, something that he's done his entire life. And
it is rather odd-maybe not, I'm sure the psychologists have something to
explain the phenomenom-that there are so many chickenhawks in the Bush
administration, then again, birds of a feather. BTW, chickenhawk, which is
also used as a definition for a homosexual pimp, is a person that is a
strong advocate of military action while never having served in the military
themselves. The few Republicans that have served in combat, guys like McCain
and Chuck Hagel, are fairly circumspect when advocating military action as
the first option in a political crisis.
