<<Very good point. I think an outstanding consideration for GWB is he asked for no special privilege and accepted his punishment. That is a real man. >> I respect a man who takes the shot even though he could duck it. Shows character. Stand up type of guy. The person we so desperately need now.

<<I think an outstanding consideration for GWB is he asked for no special privilege>> "However, both Bush and Cheney successfully avoided Vietnam service, while Gore volunteered for service there. Papa Bush went to bat to get junior into the National Guard, where W's only combat was flying into a flock of geese over Corpus Christi. Cheney sought and received a deferment because he was in graduate school. Furthermore, Bush played hooky for his last two years of stateside Guard duty." buzzflash.com
