I am a Cruz supporter, but I try to evaluate charges against Trump fairly. The racism charges were pure rubbish and made me sick as I am sick of Republicans being called racist.
This ad is pretty darn accurate. Bone spurs really? Too many vets were so willing to get into wars they even lied about their ages and disabilities to get in. Bone spurs?
Based on that Chicken Donald should call himself a loser.
Well dont hold back.
Put the proof out there that he did.
Did you know John Kerry was in Vietnam?
“He lied about having bone spurs to avoid the draft. “
He didn’t lie. The spurs were found during his draft physical. Can be quite painful
Where did little Rubio and Ted serve again?
In the Vietnam war people were lying about their ages to get in and hiding disabilities.. this is sarcasm right?
You could find dozens of decorated veterans who opposed President Reagan, if you searched hard enough, but that was no reason to vote against him. Trump and Cruz both do well with veterans. I’m going to ignore these silly ads. [Cruz is my first choice, but not because Trump was never in uniform - neither was Cruz, Rubio, Hillary, or Bernie.]
As a 20 plus years retiree I am calling them out.
And they just took his word for it? Why didn’t all the draft dodgers claim to have bone spurs?
I just read it and there isn’t anything there!
Where is the part where it proves he dodged the draft, not a bunch of “well maybe”, and “perhaps”?
this is from a Rubio group? where’s Rubio’s service records?
There are a lot of things to not like about Cruz.

He wasn’t. He received a college deferment.
Thanks for the link, it shows exactly what I though, quote:
“Sept. 17, 1968, he reported for an armed forces physical examination and was medically disqualified, according to the ledger from his local Selective Service”
“This ad is pretty darn accurate”
Which part? The one where they didn’t furnish any proof, or the part where they forgot to?
Bingo!!!!
“Donald Trump hasnt served this country a day in his life, essentially dodged the draft in Vietnam through multiple deferments”
First, most eligible men didn’t serve in the VN war. And secondly, the service Trump performed by derailing Bush’s campaign is much more important than my service. (And I served in VN)
“So the decorated Veterans are lying”
Seems that way...
Which is why he plays golf, though it is a bit perplexing, since he still has sex and doesn’t wear ugly pants.
