"BUSTED: New York Times Caught Lying About @RealDonaldTrump’s Draft Record To Slime Him Post #KhizrKhan"

The New York Times Carlos Slim’s blog got caught in a lie today about Donald Trump’s military service.

The Times’ bloggers Steve Eder and David Phillips write: "Many men of Mr. Trump’s age were looking for ways to avoid the war, said Charles Freehof, a draft counselor at Brooklyn College at the time, noting that getting a letter from a physician was a particularly effective option.

“We had very little trouble with people coming back saying, ‘They wouldn’t accept my doctor’s note,’” Mr. Freehof said.

Mr. Trump had a 1-Y classification, which was considered a temporary exemption. But in practice,....

LEFTIES have lying in their DNA and this is NOT news and will be ignored by at least 53% of the nation.

And many Americans will not hear about the lie and the same bunch don’t give a damn about the lie or America.

Trump for President.

The New York Times is merely a mouthpiece for the American hard left.

Nothing more.

The New York Slimes, LYING about Trump?

Say it ain't SO!!

But as sure as the sun rises, you can be certain that at some point, they'll regurgitate that long ago PROVEN lie that Hillary Rotten Criminal was seeking to join the United States Marine Corps in 1975.

What an absolute total fluster cuck THAT would have been!

Carlos Slim is the richest man in Mexico, and one of the richest in the world. You can figure out the rest of the story.

Interesting that they’re so concerned with Trump’s Selective Service classification but couldn’t dredge up a smidgen of curiosity re: hussein’s poorly forged card or clinton’s draft dodging.

this is the same newspaper that did all it could to make us lose that war and encouraged men to resist the draft.

Yup, 0bama's Selective Service card is a clear forgery to anyone who has seen the investigation but yet, the NY Slimes ignores it. They are so pathetic.

I was wondering why Trump was thrilled with the gift of the Purple Heart. Why he said he always wanted one. This article makes it all crystal clear.

I wouldn't be surprised if he pinned that Purple Heart to the American Flag.

The NY Slimes has been an overt commie propaganda rag from the time of their Moscow Bureau Chief Walter Duranty, nearly a century ago.

Donald Trump has said that he is planning to bar the New York Times from his events. He should. Their interests and his interests aren’t aligned.

Their interests and OUR interest aren't aligned!

On O’Reilly, Trump said his lottery draft number was 356...no way he would be drafted. My husbands number was 360.

Trump and I share this: we both were called in for our physicals. We both reported. We both were declared 1Y, mine due to knees, his due to heel spurs.

If there’s dishonor in that, well, don’t know what to say. Would you rather I be on the field and have my knees go out and have other soldiers risk themselves for me? I think not. That’s precisely why we have physical standards.

Later Trump said (correctly) that he had a high draft number, but I think he was embarrassed that he got 1Y.

A media report of the first homocide has been discovered. “Mr. Abel attached Mr. Cain’s rock with his head.”

Look up "bone spur" in a search engine. A soldier with painful bone spurs would not be able to drill, march, do obstacle courses in training, charge the enemy, even wear those hard combat boots.

That's why the military didn't and still doesn't want recruits with this affliction.

I ought to know, I had one. No fun...and the pain can put you out of business. Fortunately, mine didn't need surgery. Many do.

I have that now, insertional Achilles tendinitis.

The bone in the back of my heel grew outward toward my ligament and I am in constant pain.
Walk slow with a limp. Three months in a cast, nothing. Back of my foot looks like I have a golf ball growing out of it.

Have to go get the bone cut out.
Pay $438 a month for the worst Obamacare at Kaiser and it is another $6500 I pay for the operations deductible.

I would think if Trump had that problem the spurs were surgically removed and maintained.

I have a version and you are being stabbed form the inside and it is tough to walk without limping. Probably Trump had surgery.

I'm sure the Donald had the surgery.

I decided to bring the subject up because the leftist media is making a big deal about his bone spurs deferment, impugning that spurs are a minor thing and not cause for getting a 4F designation, therefore he's a draft dodger...you know the drill !!!

Just part of the usual lies and spin we're being bombarded with day and night.
