Christopher,

We'll agree to disagree.

Re: if you had criticized a draft dodger leading this nation

You willfully mischaracterize Clinton. If you are unaware of the history, Clinton was legitimately opposed to the immoral Viet Nam aggression that the U.S. was engaged in in the 1960's. He worked within the system to secure a valid set of deferments to avoid service in a crime he was morally opposed to.

The same facts do not apply to George Bush, who was given a special privileged and unearned position in the Texas National Air Guard. Then he abused the privilege by failing to show up for a medical that would point out his cocaine use. Then he went AWOL for 14 months.

There's absolutely no comparison between the two fact cases.
