“Rudy’s jury-rigged deferment stinks mightily.”
Not at all. I wasn’t smart enough to work the system like that, but that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with it. When I was in the military I often used little-known — or well-known — regulations to get the best I could for myself and my subordinates.
“Calling it technically “legal” doesn’t remove the stench.”
It wasn’t “technically” legal; it was perfectly legal. (To judge by the information available to date.)
“The problem is that FReepers like you and Marple are trying to foist a vile moral leper on the rest of us and then want to blame us for not supporting him and allowing another vile moral leper to win.”
Woah. You need to look at my 167. I don’t think Rudy is fit to be president, but not because he worked the system for a deferral. We still have to give him the presumption that if his deferment had been refused, he would have served.
“If Clinton ends up in the White House, you can thank the Rudy groupies for the result.”
I think it’s a bit too early to say that. However, I don’t think Rudy is electible because, frankly, he’s ugly.
