Yes, it's much better to serve in a war, then call your fellow combatants "war criminals" and discuss anti-American psy-ops with the enemy as you protest the war.
I have always said, serving one's country in a time of war encompasses those who served in whatever capacity. To even belittle those who sat home and wrapped the bandaides is wrong. Clinton dodged. The freaks who ran to Canada dodged. Those who were given rightful deferments were deferred...they did not dodge.
