I'll deny that anything you're parroting from the nutroots' talking points are even a little bit relevant. After the current president and his plagiarizing horse's ass of a running mate (who also had five deferments) beat the Great War Hero, none of it matters anymore.

I don't believe the post was directed to you WPTGY...nonetheless, you'll get no argument from me about Biden's apparent draft-dodging cowardice. But this isn't about him, is it? It was about Cheney and Rush (who incidentally got deferred for a cyst on his butt) and Palin as the "pure" examples of unsullied conservative Republicans that hold the keys to lead the GOP to victory in 2012. I believe the keys lie more in line with someone espousing a limited government and a strong defense but, as well, someone who has walked the mile or two in a pair of combat boots and worn a uniform to back it up...apparently you feel differently.

I don’t care if was directed at me or not. Nobody gives a damn about draft deferments that happened 40 years ago. Lose the silly DK talking point.
