I think it comes from cheney's 5 deferments which he explains as "I had better things to do".

And shrub's draft dodging by joining a creampuff unit of the TANG and skipping out after being too chicken-sh*t to go to a required physical....all because, as he's said, was a better option than blowing out his eardrum with a shotgun.

That compared to Kerry serving two active duty tours...VOLUNTEERING to go to nam specifying Swift Boat service which was an 80% casualty rate job...receiving 3 Purple Hearts, A Silver star and a Bronze star.
THEN coming home and telling some truths about a war everyone agrees was not a just war.

THEN the shrubistas have the nerve to denigrate the armed services hiding behind a pack of liars called SBVT.

It's not desperation...it's justified indignation.

Uh, from the truth, perhaps. Nothing is more despicable than a guy who runs away when it is his turn to serve, but then turns brave with the lives of others. "Bring it on" as long as we don't have to fight.
