It is not necessary for everyone to kill a lion to prove his manhood. There are many ways each of us are tested to prove our willingness to stand on our honor and principle. You clearly disagree with those you mentioned and it seems to be simply based on the fact that they are conservative politicians. Your circumstantial criticisms are uncalled for, below the belt, and transparent.

"Cheney didn't even serve in the National Guard; he just took advantage of student and then marriage deferments. Cheney is, of course, a smarter and more polished politician than Quayle was in 1988.

But Cheney's explanation for why he failed to serve--uttered to George C. Wilson of the Washington Post in 1989--was no less obtuse than Quayle's. He said: "I had other priorities in the '60s than military service."

============Bush deserted. Cheney had other things to do than serve.

When their country called on them, they said NO! NO! NO! WE WILL NOT GO!

Gee.
