Not.. according to Trump.
Yeah, I’m sure Gorrell and the other right wing cartoonists were cheering Ali on when he refused to be drafted.
It’s good to remember that Ali was NOT a draft dodger. He refused to serve on religious grounds.
Many draft dodgers are today’s ChickenHawks, like Bush, Cheney, Willard Romney, Phil Gramm, Bolton, et al.
Not to mention 4-f Trump.
Yeah, Clinton dodged the draft. But he did not support the war at the same time.
Thus, he does not qualify for the title of ChickenHawk, like Willard Romney, Bush, Cheney, and the rest.
I am still astonished that Republicans/Fox “news” viewers consider them heroes and patriots.
“So it’s okay for people you like to “refuse to serve” but not for people you don’t like….”
People like Clinton did not want to serve, but they also did not want anyone else to either.
People like Trump, Willard, et al, were completely in favor of other people getting killed.
What part of the jaw dropping amount of hypocrisy is it that escapes you?
So if Muhammed Ali fought another thrilla in Manila, Trump would not let him back in the US, right?Trump wants to take away our freedom.
Thank you, Mr. Ali, for standing up to the US government during our illegal invasion of Vietnam. Our invasion was a war crime for which people like henry kissinger should stand trial.
