I didn't see anyplace in the article that said he was 2 years active.
You are diverting the point of the article.
I also avoided the draft by enlisting in the Army for 3 years active service, served two years in Germany, then 4 years in the national guard.
I am not diverting it in any way shape or form.
Nowhere in the article is the man accused of claiming to have served in Vietnam.
He simply claims to be a veteran.
The reserves (even those who do not serve in active units first) are put on active duty, sent through bootcamp, and trained in an MOS. They have served in the military. And that is all that veteran means. You, the constituant, and the author of the poorly worded hit piece don’t get to redefine the word.
Period.
If Phil Hare has claimed something else that isn’t true (As Bluementhal did) then call him on that and cite what he said.
But don’t play lame semantic games, and do not try to get veterans riled up in ways that make them look stupid.
YOU NO GOOD GOD****ED MOTHER****ER! YOU SH*T EATING DOG OF A POSING COMMIE FA***T! GO HOME AND S*CK YOUR MOTHER'S D*CK!!!
I'm sure the mods will blip this fast, but it was fun!
