Cheney never served in uniform.

This obsession with donning a military uniform is absurd. Vice-President Richard Cheney advanced the cause of America's interests and was part of the team that kept us safe and secure for eight years. Contrast what Cheney did with some of those who wore the uniform but advanced commie causes.

And there are other American-hating liberals who "served" such as the trio of CBS liars: Bob Scheiffer, Charles Osgood and Steve Kroft. The reality is that good men such as Vice-President Richard B. Cheney, Rush Limbaugh, Ted Nugent, Mark Levin and -- to some extent -- even Sean Hannity, though they may not have worn the uniform, have without question done more for America and our great military than any number of those who happened to "serve".

To me it’s not a question of whether Cheney ever served in the U.S. military. It’s a matter of him getting multiple deferments to stay out of the U.S. military while millions of other men were meeting their obligations and getting sent overseas to fight in a disgraceful military campaign that would end up with untold lives lost and permanently destroyed, and 58,000+ names on a wall in Washington D.C. to serve as a reminder of the feckless idiocy of their own government.

At least you’ve stopped arguing that Cheney served in the military. He got multiple deferments, but now he’s a big one for sending other people’s kids to fight needless wars.

Hey nortex

Rangel is a corrupt pol. But he won combat medals in Korea. How dare you denigrate his heroism in a real war vs. a very real enemy?
