Slick Willie's and der Hildebeast's generation of PhD professors who went to college because they had student deferments during the Viet Nam War, who got their advanced degrees and tenure while their brothers were getting killed and wounded in 'Nam, are now the ruling elites encouraging today's college students to diss the Iraq war vets.

I think the only educational deferrments that should be allowed in the case of a draft are for courses of study useful for a war effort. That means deferments for engineering, medical, ect., but not for liberal arts students.

Many of those whose deferments were going to run out at graduation opted to become teachers. (A profession that exempted one from the draft) The public school system of today is the result of this influx of anti-American cowards.
