I understand you've picked a candidate and are getting partisan. I haven't yet.
People who got deferments were not draft dodgers. You're taking a page right out of the Dems playbook, where even Guard service is "draft dodging."
You''re making a false assertion. We can disagree agreeably but I won't stand for anybody putting words in my mouth or ascribing liberal nonsense towards me.
Rudy got his deferment questionably to avoid military service. President Bush served honorably in the Air National Guard. Rudy went on to prosecute others who avoided military service. President Bush did no such thing.
If you can't see the political ramifications of that in a political world where Republicans were merciless in their pursuit of Clinton's draft dodging so be it.
