BBB, we were talking about presidents donning military garb after dodging service. I don't recall seeing Clinton in anything except business suits and jogging suits the entire time he was in office.

Bill Clinton's prestigious military record:
Bill Clinton registers for the draft on September 8, 1964, accepting all contractual conditions of registering for the draft. Given Selective Service Number 3 26 46 228.
Bill Clinton classified 2-S on November 17, 1964
Bill Clinton reclassified 1-A on March 20, 1968
Bill Clinton ordered to report for induction on July 28, 1969
Bill Clinton dishonors order to report and is not inducted into the military
Bill Clinton reclassified 1-D after enlisting in the United States Army Reserves on August 07,1969 under authority of Colonel E. Holmes.
Clinton signs enlistment papers and takes oath of enlistment
Bill Clinton fails to report to his duty station at the University of Arkansas ROTC, September 1969
Bill Clinton reclassified 1-A on October 30, 1969, as enlistment with Army Reserves is revoked by Colonel E. Holmes and Clinton now AWOL and subject to arrest under Public Law 90-40 (2)(a) "registrant who has failed to report...remain liable for induction"
Bill Clinton's birth date lottery number is 311, drawn December 1, 1969, but anyone who has already been ordered to report for induction, is INELIGIBLE!
Bill Clinton runs for Congress (1974), while a fugitive from justice under Public Law 90-40
Bill Clinton runs for Arkansas Attorney General (1976), while a fugitive from justice
All these facts come from Freedom of Information requests, public laws, and various books that have been published, and have not been refuted by Clinton.Comment

How many of those presidents who never served in the military proclaimed themselves a "war president'?
Uh, the National Guard IS part of the military. I work for Joint Forces and we have over 2500 guard members in this state deployed or have been deployed. Guard members are risking AND losing their lives just like any other service.
And as far as rich boys pulling strings, how in the hell do you think Clinton got to be a Rhodes Scholar that allowed him to miss part of the draft? It is just the way of the world.
And not that I am a huge W fan, but he is our Commander in Chief and I doubt you would find many soldiers upset about him wearing the uniform.
But back to the subject at hand, YES, our soldiers need and deserve our support. I've been associated w/the military basically all my adult life and the sacrifices these soldiers and their families make are something we should all be aware of. One way to help support them is by donating to the Family Readiness Groups, Morale, Welfare & Recreation Fund or the Family Assistance Fund. You can PM me if you want more info. This is especially true of Guard and Reserve soldiers/sailors because many of them have left behind far better paying jobs in order to serve and now they and their families are forced to live at on a military salary instead.Comment

He is "president" , during a time of "war". How many used that exact verbiage, I don't know, I'm not a scholar. Are you saying he doesn't have the right to make that claim?

Well Turk, the point was (why do I always have to explain it twice?) that LITERALLY nothing he is saying is incorrect. What exactly is "clutching at straws" about that statement I don't know. You'll need to explain that one. But I guess you can't, as you've opted not to...
Why is he "my hero"? Was Kerry "your hero"? Were any of the losers the Dems put up your "guy"? I like Bush and thought he was the better choice.
You've got nothing here, so I don't know what exactly we are debating.Comment
