Ironic That Trump Loves The Military And Generals But Was A Draft Dodger !

I think there are many ways to serve your country and the people that occupy it besides donning a uniform and toting a rife and going thousands of miles away to risk your life or to kill another human being that you have no quarrel with in a foreign land just because your country thinks you should. Trump went in a different direction, he didn't do it illegally and he has made some impressive contributions here at home. I don't hold it against him that he didn't serve in the Military. He's serving his country as President, it doesn't get much better than that.

Yes, their are many ways to serve your country but serving in the military is, to me, a batter way than being POTUS.

That's an untrue statement. If that were a true statement probably 90% of those drafted in the 60's would not have "served"! His official records will reflect that determination based on the medical evidence received by the board who authorized his deferment. That is the "legal" method, even if the cops don't stop you and say it's "against the law."

On the other hand ... Clinton deceived and lied. His propensity for LYING continued into his Presidency during which he LIED AGAIN to the American people and yet again under oath as DETERMINED by a Federal Judge presiding over the preceding in which he lied under oath. Lying on documents utilized by the Federal Government is a felony, whether you "think" it is or not and even if the cops don't stop you and say it's "against the law."

You're about as qualified at legal analysis as you are predicting the outcomes of Presidential elections. Zip! Originally Posted by LexusLover

Jim, these same full of shit loudmouths whined about Bush II not "really serving" in the military, because he was in the "Air Guard" and it ended up with fake paper work in an attempt to prove he was AWOL.

You are wasting your good sense on them. They NEVER criticize Obaminable or PERJURY BILL for NOT SERVING IN THE MILITARY but will argue about somone's "bone spur" .... trying to ignore reality. Originally Posted by LexusLover

The draft ended in 1973. End of draft dodging.

I find it rather amusing that Jim and I can have a rather pleasant discussion on this subject and you feel it necessary to come in and drag the thread into the gutter. As usual. Sort of like a lying, ignorant, redneck, hillbilly.

You are old but you have a lot of growing up to do.

He's also not intelligent enough to understand there is politics in the military as well.

If I recall he's never been in a "live fire" situation. Just plinking at paper.
