Let's see. Dan Quayle served in The national Guard during Viet Nam, whichmakes him a draft dodger,a ccording to the anti-liberty left.
President Bush served as a fighter pilot during Viet Nam in the Texas Air National Guard, makiing him also a draft dodger, according to them.
Former President B.J. CLinton actively avoided the draft and avoided serving at all, during Viet Nam, making him a hero, of sorts.
Failed 2004 Presidential candidate John 'F'in Kerry, who is said to have served in Viet Nam, enlisted after 4 student draft deferments and went on to a stellar 4 month tour of unmatched heroics and granduer, in his mind and then became a deceitful leader of the anti-liberty left, making him a hero, also.
Vice-President Cheney didn't serve due to draft deferments, so he too is an evil draft dodger, according to the anti-liberty left.
West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd, during World War Two served in the Ku Klux Klan instead of the Military, so he too is a hero, to the left.
Former VP under B.J. Clinton, Al Gore, spent 5 months or so in Viet Nam as a reporter, so he too is a highly reliable war hero, according to the left.
Now, along comes Christopher Dodd, who served in the Army Reserves during Viet Nam from 1969 to 1975. Any guess how he will be held up as what we should aspire to be?

Sen. Christopher J. Dodd (D -- Waitress Sandwich)...
Yah. Right. Dark-Horse, eh? Ruffian comes to mind (for horse racing fans everywhere), and Barbaro.
However, they were champions beforehand, not self-serving chumpions like Dodd.

Dodd's greatest accomplishments in life:
Staying slightly more sober than Kennedy.
Been half of a waitress sandwich with Kennedy.
Managed to not drown his young "admirers".
Combing mouse into his hair...
Typical Democrat politician.....
Worthless POS.

Comrade Dodd hasn't got a chance, nothing would help the GOP candidate better than for this clown to get the nomination.

There sure seems to be a lot of politicians running for President this go round. On the bright side, look at the money the Dims will be throwing away backing "no chance" canidates.

His Daddy Tom Dodd was censored by the U.S. Senate in 1967 for misusing campaign contributions.
He used to get drunk and pass out in his office. He was first defeated in a run for the Senate in 1956 by Prescott Bush and won his seat two years later.
I wonder how Daddy's baggage will help or hurt Dodd.
