    Wow! Let’s celebrate draft dodgers!!! God bless ol’ Jimmeh Carter for pardoning the “evaders” so they can perform in the U.S.

    COWARD!!!

    Who’s a coward? Carter, for pardoning folks that followed their consciences, or folks like you, who think that forcing people to serve in the military, regardless of the realities of the situation, is a cool idea? You want to go to war, go - or are you the coward?

    It’s really easy to follow your conscience and abandon your country, rather than spend two years serving it. Wonder would have happened after Pearl Harbor if guys just ran to Canada…hmmmm…..

    Abandon your country? Oh, yeah, I remember all those battleships the Viet Cong sank. Trying to compare WWII to Vietnam just shows how supremely stupid your argument is. Besides, how is Heart “celebrating draft dodgers”? It wasn’t the Wilson sisters who were in danger of being drafted, after all.

    I think part of America’s problem with Vietnam is that the French fought it as well as possible, JFK blundered and was about to admit his error, Lyndon Johnson stained himselg irrevocably, and it was a national disgrace. If you prticipated, nobody spit on you in an airport when you came back. That’s a myth Nixonites felt they had to invent, and the aholes came back to haunt us in Bush II.

    And W and every one of his closed circle had “something better to do”. Going to Canada was a moral statement for some people, and it was a uniquely American stand. Hardship Dick Cheney’s five deferments and building a political career on hardline perversion of Coservatism was moral and intellectual cowardice.
